The 94,000
square foot Riverview Park Activities Center opened in August,
1993. The Activities Center contains four gymnasiums, and its
many amenities attract users of all ages. One of the unique features
of the facility is the 1/6 mile indoor walking/jogging track overlooking
Riverview Park and the Savannah River. Suspended above the gymnasiums,
the 15 foot wide track has two flat lanes for walkers and two
banked lanes for runners. Fitness enthusiasts can work out in
the weight and fitness area or enjoy a game of racquetball on
one of two courts. Exhibition area and meeting rooms are also
available for community meetings and special events.
The Riverview Park Activities Center is the site of the annual
Nike Peach Jam Basketball Tournament, which showcases 24 of the
top AAU teams throughout the nation. In November it is the site
of an American Kennel Club Regional Dog Show. Throughout the year
the Activities Center hosts many other special events ranging
from health fairs to athletic tournaments. |
