Sports and athletics may look different then one is accustomed to this fall term. With COCC’s facilities closed this fall, in-person locations and events will take place off-campus.
The first event coming up is the Juniper Fitness Center Fall Kickoff for Student life, on Oct. 2nd from 5:30-7:30. This is an opportunity to meet other students while having access to Juniper’s indoor pools, hot tub, fitness center and various fitness classes. Registration is up now, but spots are limited. Location: 800 NE 6th St, Bend, OR 97701.
