PepsiCo Recreation Center


The PepsiCo Recreation Center was opened during the fall trimester of 1995. A one million-dollar gift from the PepsiCo Foundation helped in the building of this $2.9 million dollar building. The building is located next to Augustana's largest residence halls, Westerlin and Erickson. The building utilizes 40,000 square feet of gymnasium floor, which is encircled by an 8-lane, 200-meter track. Construction of this facility reflects the fact that the College joins a distinguished group of Division III institutions which recognize the importance of recreational activity for all members of a campus community and make a commitment to meet those needs. The PepsiCo Recreation Center is open to students, faculty, and staff at Augustana College.
