The 22,000 square foot Field House is a versatile space with curtains available to divide it into 2-3 separate spaces. The Rough Rider Center Arena is another large-capacity option at 27,500 square feet, also equipped with curtains to section off the space into 2-3 smaller areas. Lastly, the Upper and Lower Concourse areas are both extremely versatile, modern options. Connecting all aspects of the Rough Rider Center, it is beautiful and spacious with an abundance of natural light and wooden accents.
