Plan Your Kirkwood Community Center Visit

The building is used for recreation programs, indoor sports, pickleball, meetings, classes, private rentals and the Robert G. Reim Theater. The Aquatic Center and Recreation Station Ice Arena share the broader Kirkwood Park recreation complex but operate on separate schedules and fees.
Information reviewed October 30, 2026. Program calendars, gym access, rentals and holiday schedules can change, so confirm a time-sensitive activity before traveling.
Hours: Building Hours and Information Desk Hours Are Different
The City publishes more than one schedule for the site. Treat them as different service windows rather than assuming one set of hours controls every activity.
| Public building hours on City contact page | Monday–Thursday 8:00 AM–7:30 PM; Friday 8:00 AM–5:30 PM; Saturday 9:00 AM–noon. |
|---|---|
| Current Parks & Recreation information desk hours | Monday–Friday 9:00 AM–4:00 PM; Saturday 10:00 AM–4:00 PM; Sunday 10:30 AM–4:00 PM. |
| Programs, rentals and gym use | Activity-specific. A class, court, theater rehearsal or private rental can have a schedule that does not match either general listing. |
| Pool and ice skating | Separate facilities and schedules. Do not use Community Center hours to plan Aquatic Center swimming or Ice Arena skating. |

2026 Open-Play Pickleball
A City of Kirkwood 2026 open-play listing shows three-court indoor pickleball at the Community Center. Because recreation schedules can change by season or event, use these times as the published 2026 pattern and check the calendar before leaving.

|---|---|
| Monday–Thursday | 12:30 PM–3:30 PM |
| Sunday | 11:30 AM–2:30 PM |

For resident-priced access, the current WebTrac information says resident ID cards can be obtained at the Community Center with photo ID and proof of residency such as a utility bill or occupancy permit. Confirm the current ID fee and documentation before making a special trip.

How to Reserve a Room, Gym, Studio or Theater
Match your event to a room, gym, studio or theater and check the listed capacity.
Determine whether the resident/non-profit or non-resident rate applies and ask about any eligible non-profit discount.
Use the official WebTrac facility search or contact Community Center reservations before planning around a date.
Confirm tables, chairs, kitchenette access, sports-net setup, rehearsal restrictions and any complimentary setup time.
Complete payment through the official system, keep the receipt, and recheck arrival instructions before the event.
Activity Rooms: What You Actually Get
Activity Room 1 and Activity Room 2 are practical choices for small showers, birthday parties and meetings. Each has a capacity of 40, 12 six-foot rectangular tables and 40 chairs. Guests are responsible for setting up and breaking down those tables and chairs.
Each activity room also has a kitchenette with a sink, microwave and mini fridge. The City gives renters a complimentary 30-minute setup period before the rental and 30 minutes for breakdown afterward. That detail matters when comparing a room that appears cheaper but charges separately for setup time.
Kirkwood Park, Aquatic Center & Ice Arena
Kirkwood Community Center sits within the larger 92-acre Kirkwood Park. The park also includes the Aquatic Center, Recreation Station Ice Arena, playground, picnic areas and pavilions, athletic fields, community garden, Lions’ Amphitheater, Walker Lake and other outdoor recreation amenities.
For visitors, the key planning rule is simple: use 111 S. Geyer Road for the Community Center, Aquatic Center and Ice Arena destination, but verify each facility’s own schedule and fee. The Racquet Center is separately listed at 529 W. Adams Avenue.
If your main goal is a pool, fitness membership or multipurpose recreation complex rather than a meeting-room visit, compare the process with our Gladstone Community Center Missouri guide, which also separates building hours from pool and activity schedules.
Parking, Accessibility & First-Time Arrival
The official Community Center directory lists parking and accessible parking, along with restrooms, drinking fountains, benches and concessions. The City also provides Relay Missouri access: dial 711 and ask the communications assistant to call 314-822-5855.
