Campbell Community Center | 541-682-5318

Celeste Campbell Center has provided recreation activities for adults age 50 and up since 1962. The Senior and Adult Program promotes health and well-being, strengthens support networks and assists individuals to remain independent.

Research shows that just 30 minutes of daily exercise can positively impact weight, reduce the risk of type II diabetes, some cancers and other life-threatening diseases, and significantly improve cognitive function.

Campbell Center offers a variety of activities that make exercising fun, including walking and bik-ing groups, dance classes, outdoor recreation, tai chi, and more. Campbell also offers classes in art, handcrafts, computers, and foreign lan-guage, as well as social events, weekly lunch bunch, and presentations on topics ranging from estate planning to “Can the Clutter.” Day trips and woodworking in Campbell’s woodshop are other popular activities.

Campbell Center is located in Skinner Butte Park, with a view of the river and an outdoor court-yard that makes a great setting for weddings.
