Pleasant Prairie RecPlex Amenities
The Fieldhouse
When Wisconsin’s weather turns wintry, the RecPlex’s 60,000 square foot Fieldhouse becomes the center of the sporting action with state-of-the-art indoor courts for basketball, volleyball, or pickleball, as well as a one-sixth-mile suspended running track right above the courts.
Aqua Arena
Adjacent to the Fieldhouse, and ensuring year-round access to watersports and leisure, is the RecPlex Aqua Arena. Home to the Pleasant Prairie Patriots competitive swim team and host to large events such as the Speedo Sectionals, the RecPlex Aqua Arena is a versatile pool that can be set as either a short course (25Y) or a long course (50M). The pool is heated by geothermal power to 81 degrees, and is able to seat up to 600 spectators in the stands.
Waterpark
In addition to the training and competitive side of the aqua arena, the RecPlex is home to a small indoor waterpark and recreational pool. This water wonderland features a whirlpool channel, hot tub, and lap lanes — and that’s just the beginning. Little ones love the multilevel water fortress with water launchers, a slide, tunnels, and constantly flowing water. Kids and adults alike flock to the two-story, twisty water slide that’s worth the admission alone.
Ice Arena
If you’re prepared to embrace the cold, the RecPlex Ice Arena houses two NHL-sized ice rinks that operate year-round, as well as a small pro shop for hockey players, figure skaters, and the casual ice skater. Multiple on-site programs and leagues are available throughout the year to help athletes young and old hone their skills on the ice. Stop in during an open skate session for some fun with the family!
