I was attending a fall U of C convocation at this venue. There was no bad seat to watch the ceremony and seats were comfy. Washrooms were close by.
Pretty good equipment, has a running track on the second floor, a racquet center on the main floor, a pool, 3 basketball courts in the basement, outdoor socker fields, and a large ice rink.
Saw my son graduate in this place, so enjoyed being there. They did have it fixed up very nicely for the graduations. All went very well for the first ceremonies after the Pandemic.
Was here for a HS graduation. Place was nice but the seats are terrible. The space between seats is not existent. My ex husband who is 6 foot cramped up and had to walk around. Than change seats so he could stretch out on the end. So noisy as well when walking up and down. Overall a nice place for graduation.
Nice gymnasium. We went there for our granddaughters graduation ceremony. This is designed for sports functions and definitely not the setting for graduation ceremonies. High schools should think twice about this very basic setting to hold such an event, that parents and these grade 12 grads will remember for the rest of their lives. Perhaps high schools hold these ceremonies here because it is less expensive compared to the cost of performing these ceremonies at an auditorium. As a gymnasium I'll give it five stars, for graduation ceremonies and the like Zero Stars. Shame on the school board, or the schools for holding events like these there!
Good and calm place for workout, but sometimes in rush hour you have to wait for a machine!
Awesome assembly for convocation of 2018 UoC medical, nursing and law with graduate schools etc. Programs. Congratulations! The first row of chairs folded down, may be a bit tripping hazard...
Its quite an interesting place . Coming here for thr first time . They have all sorts of workout machineries put in place with a trainer and volunteers ready to help out at any given opportunity .
Good place to host grad ceremonies and other edcuational related party events. Lots of entry exit points, enough ventilation, and stadium style seating.
It was ok long night setting up all them blow up dolls
