Kummer/Little Recreation Center Addition

The  Kummer/Little Recreation Center expansion is located adjacent to the existing F.O. Moxley Community Center. As you approach the Kummer Little Recreation Center, you can take note of the beautiful landscaping that surrounds the building providing a renewed focus and identity for both facilities, as well as allows the shared use of the facilities in both the original building and the addition.

Inside the building, you will find two full-sized basketball courts shiny enough to see your own reflection! People of all ages and abilities can play an exciting game of pick-up ball or simply work on their skills. These courts double as volleyball or dodge ball courts for indoor recreation. The Kummer Little Recreation Center has a state of the art walking track with three lanes made with flooring that has a little gives to imitate walking or running outdoors. Upstairs overlooking the basketball courts, you will find a commons area, concession stand, multi-purpose room for meetings, vending machines, and TV/Internet access. The recreation center is arranged so that the gymnasium, which is two high school-sized basketball courts, and its associated spaces can be operated independently by Recreation Center or be included with Community Center programs.

Prior to the start of the design , Sherman Carter Barnhart first provided:

• A review of the existing building and its immediate site,
• Prepared a master plan for the facility which developed future connections to ongoing redevelopment projects in the adjacent neighborhoods.
• Held interactive design meetings with the staff to develop a program for the existing facility, the addition, and future phases.
