After growing up in Great Falls, Montana, and serving in a variety of community recreation roles before moving to Provo, the chance to be part of such a big project has been a great experience.
The Provo Rec Center, from its initial planning to construction to daily operation, has been a labor of love for Scott Henderson, the director of parks and recreation in Provo. “It’s a fun and safe place for people to go at an affordable cost.”ĭespite being planned during a poor economy and experiencing much higher usage than expected, the Provo Rec Center has been thriving as the standard for health and wellness in the community. “The Provo Rec Center provides a lot of different ways for people to be active, whether that’s in a more playful setting or more structured workout setting,” said Lauren LeDoux, a fitness coordinator at the Provo Rec Center. The 162,000-square-foot facility was an instant hit when it opened, and with a full suite of recreation services, it has remained a popular destination for fitness enthusiasts and families alike. “Roughly 7,000 of our 125,000 residents come here every single day - and that includes Group X classes and outdoor leisure aquatics,” said Bryce Merrill, the recreation center manager. Since its grand opening in 2013, the Provo Rec Center has been the hub of health and wellness activities in the local community. This question, posed in 2013 by John Curtis, the previous mayor of Provo, Utah, represents how important the Provo Recreation Center ( Provo Rec Center) is to the surrounding community.
“What were all these people doing before this place was built?”
