New Amenities for the Community

Recently completed, the renovation of Patriot Hall provides active learning and wellness resources for students and community members, including a gym with bleacher seating and the region’s only indoor running track. The project creates instructional space to support new paramedic, mental health and drug & alcohol worker training as well as other credit, job training and community education offerings. It also provides additional space for Veteran support service programs and other student support programs and activities.

Clatsop Community College has opened the doors to the new Patriot Hall, a multi-purpose gymnasium, educational and community space. With support from Energy Trust or Oregon’s Path to Net Zero program, the facility was designed to use 70 percent less energy than a standard building of its type.
