Discover the Rec Center
Whether your goal is to get fit, maintain your workout routine, or simply have a little fun with friends, Central Methodist University’s Philips-Robb Recreation Center is the place for you.
About the Rec Center
Re-dedicated in September 2014, this facility is a hotspot for activity on the CMU campus and is open to students, faculty, and staff. What can you do there? Anything you want. You may find yourself working out in our newly-designed fitness room, playing games on our recreational basketball/volleyball court, competing in an intense racquetball or ping-pong match, doing yoga in our 40-yard turf room, or swimming laps in our quarter-size Olympic swimming pool.
