Simplified, the Queen's Centre is a combination of the PEC and JDUC centre, fully equipped with athletic equipment, club space, study areas and a new food court.  On the other hand, the Athletics and Resource Centre centre, complete with dance studios, multiple recreational basketball/volleyball courts, numerous squash/racquetball courts, and new cardio rooms equipped with TV screens, the ARC is a far cry from simply a combination of a gym and community centre.

On December 1st, the ARC's unofficial opening, the centre was warmly welcomed by students and staff.  While spectators flooded the building, taking in the numerous highlights of the ARC and exploring the floor map, other students took the opportunity to test out the new equipment and machine at their disposal.  Others welcomed the new Teriyaki and Booster Juice additions to the food court.  We greatly anticipate the official opening of the Queen's Centre on January 15th, as well as the completion of the next 2 phases.
