Hours and schedule ?

Cascade gym easily converts from an academic setting for physical education classes to a state-of-the-art college basketball arena, home of the PCC Panthers basketball teams, with close to 500 seats and a beautiful view of the campus and NE Portland.

On the second floor of the PE building, you’ll find a fully updated and accessible dance studio, resistance training room, cardio-respiratory equipment, and a modern functional fitness/mind-body space.

Whether it is through our PE and Dance courses, Community Education, intercollegiate sports, student intramural teams, or simply open recreation time, Cascade PE promotes and encourages fit, active, and healthy lifestyles for both our students and our community at large. Come move with us!
