Overview: The majority of Mount Holyoke's indoor athletic and recreational facilities are housed in the Kendall Sports & Dance Complex. Originally constructed in 1950, the facility has quadrupled in size to 115,399 square feet as a result of significant expansions in both 1984 and 2009. Inside the building, which was named named for College trustee Henry P. Kendall and his family, are the Mount Holyoke Fitness Center, the Mildred S. Howard Gymnasium, the Mount Holyoke Natatorium, the Mount Holyoke Field House and the Mount Holyoke Dance Studios. It is surrounded on the outside by the Mount Holyoke Turf & Track Complex, the Mount Holyoke Soccer Field, the Mount Holyoke Activity Field and the Mount Holyoke Tennis Courts. Also in close proximity are the College's Canoe House and a scenic one-mile loop around Upper Lake for running, walking or riding a horse. The Kendall Sports & Dance Complex is open over 100 hours per week during the academic year.
