City of Aberdeen opens Presentation College facilities for community use

ABERDEEN, S.D. (Dakota News Now) - One year ago, Presentation College announced it would be closing its campus permanently. Now, city officials in Aberdeen have found that one man’s campus is another man’s recreational treasure.

For many months, there were questions around the city of Aberdeen about what was going to happen with the buildings on Presentation’s campus, such as the Presentation Dome and the Strode Center. That decision laid with the Presentation Sisters, and they were the ones who reached out to Aberdeen Parks and Recreation with an idea.

A lease agreement to transfer control of the facilities to the city was formed with the Sisters. In December, Aberdeen officially opened the Strode Center and newly renamed Aberdeen Dome to the community.

For a small daily fee or the purchase of a punch card, residents can utilize the Saints’ fitness center, basketball court and indoor turf field, which lies in a temperature-controlled dome and also features batting cages.

Those facilities quickly generated interest from Aberdeen’s residents.

“Right now, we have offered some Dome hours. It’s kind of how we are scheduling things in the mornings to allow people to come in and use these facilities every morning.  We are working with other groups in town, certainly the Hub City Soccer Club, Northern State University, and Central High School have all scheduled times already,” said Recreation Aquatic Supervisor Travis Lemer.

Northern State University’s head distance running coach, Macy Heinz, was just one of the many that jumped on the opportunity to have their team practice in the Aberdeen Dome. Since winter’s arrival, it’s already proved to be an asset.

“As far as I know from last year, we struggled to get outside, especially with the winter we had last year.  I think this is a really good tool that we can have now to utilize to A: for the city of Aberdeen and B: for athletes to get some good training in a fairly temperature regulated, not icy surface,” said Heinz.

Parks and Rec Director Mark Hoven believes the facilities will bring new opportunities to Aberdeen’s residents.

“It was really a quality of life type thing. You live in Aberdeen... a lot of winters here. This provides an opportunity for people to get out of the winter. So, we’re pretty excited to have the opportunity to come in and have both this and the Strode Activities Center to be available to the citizens of Aberdeen to use,” said Hoven.

City officials say they are leasing the facilities on a month-to-month basis, but hope to reach a purchase agreement with the Presentation Sisters in the near future.

The artificial surface is also used by the Saints softball and baseball teams as an on-campus practice area.

Presentation College’s Winter Dome was completed in 2014. The Dome, which covers the existing football practice field, provides an additional 108,000 square feet of usable space during the winter months. PC uses the Dome for practices, games, and recreational events. It is also utilized for community and regional sporting events.

Presentation College features resident student suites. The suite-style housing offers an enhanced on-campus student life experience by providing independent living opportunities and modern surroundings for resident students. Three residence units, housing a total of 140 students, and a student center are at the northwest corner of the campus. In 2013, Presentation College completed construction of housing suites with a capacity of 158 students. Located just south of the football practice field, the apartment-style suites are each equipped with four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a common living area, and a kitchenette. In addition, each floor has a common living area space with a full kitchen and multiple study rooms as well as other amenities.

It is the policy of Presentation College not to discriminate against students because of a disability with regard to enrollment, accommodations in the classroom and student suites, and telecommunication services. Ramps and lifts have been put in place to allow differently abled individuals access to the buildings. Elevators and accessible reserved parking spaces have been designated at each of the entrances, and a number of the student suites have been built to accommodate different accessibility needs.
