The University of Regina is celebrating the opening of the new $32 million Centre for Kinesiology, Health and Sport (CKHS). The Government of Saskatchewan contributed $15 million to the project, the 2005 Canada Games Host Society has committed $2 million and the University has committed $3 million. The remaining $12 million is from private and corporate donors. Guests and dignitaries celebrated the academic, research and athletic successes of the University's faculty and students by opening the doors of the facility to the community. The building, adjoining the former Physical Activity Centre, features a three-court gymnasium with seating for up to 2,000 spectators, an elevated four-lane running track, lecture and classroom facilities, teaching and research laboratories, and an expanded Allied Health Centre combining sport medicine, physiotherapy, student health and the Dr. Paul Schwann Centre. The CKHS will house the University's team rooms including the Rams football team headquarters, a dedicated combatives room, movement studios and a 240-car underground parkade.6/7/05
