The Nebraska State College System Board of Trustees and Peru State College partnered with our planning and design team to advance Project ROAR—an initiative centered on strengthening student success by investing in physical wellness, mental health, and campus life amenities.
Working closely with campus leadership, athletics, facilities staff, and student stakeholders, we developed a comprehensive Athletic and Recreation Master Plan to guide implementation over the next decade. The plan defined program needs, building sizes, site strategies, and projected costs for a new Indoor Recreational Complex distributed across the College’s 104-acre campus.
The resulting 104,000 SF development is anchored by an 85,000 SF air-supported dome that provides year-round, all-weather training and recreation space. The dome accommodates a 50-yard football field with two end zones, two full basketball courts, and an 8,000 SF strength and conditioning area—creating flexible space for varsity athletics, intramurals, and general student recreation.
An additional 8,000 SF amenities building supports baseball and softball programs with modern locker rooms, coaches’ offices, concessions, restrooms, and sports therapy space.
Together, these facilities position the College to enhance recruitment, retention, and overall campus vitality by reinforcing the connection between student well-being and academic success.
