Best step

Pick activity first

Classes, pool, rentals, events, track and adult programs each use different pages and rules.

Choose the Right Visitor Path First

The search term “Campbell Community Center” can mean several different things. A parent looking for summer camp registration needs different information than a lap swimmer, rental organizer, 50+ adult program participant or someone attending a community event.

Classes

You want classes or camps

Start with the Activity Guide and online registration system. Class details change by season, and the city says the most up-to-date class information is on the registration website.

Pool

You want lap swim or swim lessons

Check the Aquatics and Lap Swim pages. General lap swim, private lane reservations, water exercise, Aqua Fitness and swim teams use specific times and registration rules.

Events

You want an event calendar

Use the city calendar and filter by Campbell Community Event Calendar, Pool Calendar, Heritage Theatre, Recreation & Community Services or other relevant categories.

Rental

You want a room or gym rental

Use the rental page and FY 25/26 Master Fee Schedule. Banquet rooms, meeting spaces, gyms, plaza, pool rental and theater uses can have different rates and deposits.

Track

You want free outdoor fitness

The outdoor Fitness Zone and track are listed as free for public use from sunrise to 10 p.m., seven days a week, with adult supervision required for children under 14.

50+

You want adult 50+ programs

Check the Adult Center 50+ pages, membership, classes and activity guide. Some activities require membership, registration or a specific age requirement.

Local planning tip: do not rely on one generic hours box. The Recreation Office, pool, event calendar, track, Fitness Zone, class sessions and rental spaces follow different practical schedules.

Hours and Contact Details That Matter Most

For most visitors, “hours” means more than the office. Use this section to separate office help from online registration, pool schedules and free outdoor fitness access.

Need Official detail What the visitor should do
Recreation Office 1 W. Campbell Avenue, C-31, Campbell, CA 95008. Phone: 408-866-2104. Office hours Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–5 p.m. Use this for registration help, refund/cancellation forms, office questions and program support.
Online registration The city says online transactions can be made 24 hours a day using major credit cards. Use online registration for fast class and program signup, especially when resident registration opens at 9 a.m.
Walk-in payment Walk-in registration is at the Campbell Recreation Office. Payment options include cash, check or credit card. Go during office hours, not after-hours class times.
Outdoor track and Fitness Zone Open sunrise to 10 p.m., seven days a week, free for the public. Use it for no-cost outdoor exercise, but supervise children under 14.
General lap swim Current listed summer 2026 sessions include Mon–Fri 6–8 a.m., 11:30 a.m.–1:10 p.m., 7:45–9 p.m., and Sat–Sun 8–10 a.m. Reserve ahead online. Cash is not accepted on site for daily visits.
Facility rentals Banquet and meeting spaces: 408-866-2768. Gymnasiums and fields: 408-866-2106. Use the right rental contact because room rentals and gym/field rentals are handled separately.

Map, Address and Arrival Planning

Use the map for directions to the Campbell Community Center campus. If you are going for a specific class, rental, pool activity or event, check the facility map or room number before arrival because the campus includes multiple buildings and tenants.

For map apps

Enter 1 W. Campbell Avenue, Campbell, CA 95008. The Recreation Office is listed as Room C-31.

For pool visitors

Arrive early enough to check in, confirm reservation details, change if needed and pick the right speed lane.

For rentals and events

Ask for room name and building number before inviting guests. The fee schedule names rooms like Orchard City Banquet Hall, Roosevelt Room, Mary Campbell Room and gym buildings.

Classes, Camps and Activity Guide Registration

The official Activity Guide page is the best starting point for current Campbell Recreation programs. The Summer 2026 guide is available online, and the city states that registration for summer camps, swim lessons and pre-school is open, while summer class registration begins at 9 a.m. on May 5 for Campbell residents and May 6 for everyone else.

What types of classes are offered?

The City of Campbell says it offers a wide range of youth, adult and 50+ classes. The Classes & Programs page points users to the registration website for the most current information.

  • Youth classes and camps.
  • Toddler programs.
  • Pre-school programs.
  • Enrichment classes.
  • Sports, fitness and dance.
  • Adult and 50+ activities.

How registration works

Use online registration when timing matters. Seasonal registration can open at exactly 9 a.m., and popular camps, swim lessons and youth classes may fill quickly.

  • Create or test your online account before registration day.
  • Confirm resident/non-resident status before checkout.
  • Keep payment card ready.
  • Save your confirmation email.
  • Use walk-in registration only during office hours.
Registration tip: if you are booking summer classes, camps or swim lessons, do not wait until the afternoon of opening day. Create the account first, review age requirements, and know your backup class section.

Events and Schedule: How to Use the City Calendar

Campbell uses a city calendar with categories, so the best schedule depends on what kind of event you want. The calendar includes categories such as Campbell Community Center Pool Calendar, Campbell Community Event Calendar, Heritage Theatre, Recreation & Community Services, city meetings and more.

Choose the correct calendar category

For public family events, use the Campbell Community Event Calendar. For pool schedule changes, use the pool calendar. For shows, check Heritage Theatre. For recreation programs, check Recreation & Community Services.

Open the event details page

Calendar tiles may not show everything. Open the event page to see location, exact time, sign-up link, whether registration is required, and whether the event is on the Community Center campus or another city site.

Do not assume free means drop-in

Some free community events still use Eventbrite, sign-up forms or capacity planning. If an event page has a sign-up link, use it before you arrive.

Check same-day changes

Pool closures, weather, city events, holiday hours and facility use can affect schedules. Recheck the calendar on the same day if the visit matters.

Event example from the live calendar: the July 2026 calendar displayed Touch-A-Truck at the Campbell Community Center parking lot and Summer Concert Series events at Orchard City Green. Treat examples as time-sensitive and always verify the current calendar before going.

Aquatics: Pool, Lap Swim, Private Lanes and Water Fitness

The Campbell Community Center Pool is an outdoor 25-yard by 20-yard pool with eight lanes. The city lists the depth from 3.5 feet at the shallow end to 9 feet at the deep end, with water temperature kept around 78–82 degrees year-round using solar and gas heat. Locker rooms, lockers and showers are available.

General lap swim

General Lap Swim is listed at $8 per session and is for ages 15+. Lanes are marked by pace, and swimmers should check in with lane users before entering. Circle swimming is required when more than two swimmers share a lane.

  • Mon–Fri: 6–8 a.m.
  • Mon–Fri: 11:30 a.m.–1:10 p.m.
  • Mon–Fri: 7:45–9 p.m.
  • Saturday and Sunday: 8–10 a.m.
  • Reservations must be made ahead of time.
  • Cash is not accepted on site for daily visits.

Private lanes and water programs

Private Lap Swim lanes are listed for ages 18+ on weekends, with 30-minute, 45-minute and 60-minute options. The Aquatics page also lists Water Exercise, Aqua Fitness, Aqua Zumba and youth swim team wave times.

  • Private lane: $10 for 30 minutes.
  • Private lane: $15 for 45 minutes.
  • Private lane: $20 for 60 minutes.
  • One additional household member may be added for an additional cost.
  • Children 10+ may swim laps with a parent in the lane.
Swimmer tip: do not arrive expecting to pay cash at the pool. Daily lap swim reservations must be completed ahead of time, and if you have a CCC pass you generally do not need to reserve each visit.

CCC Passes, Daily Swim Fees and Weight Room Access

The CCC pass system matters because it can combine access to General Lap Swim and the Weight Room. This is useful for people who swim and lift in the same visit.

Option Official listed detail Best for
Daily General Lap Swim $8 per visit. Occasional lap swimmers who reserve by day and session.
10 Visit Pass $65 for ages 15–49; $60 for patrons 50+. Visitors averaging about one visit per week or a few visits per month.
20 Visit Pass $110 for ages 15–49; $100 for patrons 50+. More regular swimmers who still want flexibility.
Monthly Pass $80 for ages 15–49; $75 for patrons 50+. Frequent swimmers and weight-room users.
Pass rules Passes are non-refundable and non-transferable; staff may ask for photo ID at check-in. People ready to commit to a pass rather than one daily visit.
Pass tip: a CCC pass lets you access both General Lap Swim and the Weight Room with one scan at the same time of day. If you leave and return later, a new scan is needed.

Track and Fitness Zone: Free Outdoor Exercise

The Fitness Zone is located at the Community Center on the west side of the track. It is a free outdoor fitness area with 12 stations for strength training, cardiovascular work, core strengthening and flexibility.

Free

No-cost public use

The Fitness Zone and track are listed as free for the general public to use during open hours.

Hours

Sunrise to 10 p.m.

The Fitness Zone is open the same hours as the Community Center Track: sunrise to 10 p.m., seven days a week.

Safety

Children under 14

Children under age 14 must be supervised by an adult while using the equipment.

Fitness tip: this is the simplest option if you want a free, no-registration workout. For pool or weight room access, use the Aquatics/Lap Swim pages and CCC pass rules instead.

Adult Center 50+ Membership and Classes

Campbell’s 50+ programming has its own membership and class structure. The official membership page lists annual membership at $25 for residents and $30 for non-residents, with registration available online.

Membership fees

  • Resident annual membership: $25.
  • Non-resident annual membership: $30.
  • Use the official page for current Adult Center membership registration.
  • Check activity guide details before assuming a class is drop-in.

What to check before attending

Adult 50+ classes, trips and events may use seasonal registration dates, age requirements, membership requirements or separate fees. Check the class description, not just the calendar title.

Facility Rentals: Banquet Rooms, Meeting Spaces, Gyms and Fields

Campbell Community Center offers a variety of rental opportunities. The official rental page lists online reservation availability for banquet rooms and meeting spaces, plus separate online availability for gymnasiums and fields.

Banquet rooms and meeting spaces

For banquet rooms and meeting spaces, the official page lists Conner Leachman as contact, email ConnerL@campbellca.gov, phone 408-866-2768.

  • Check availability online first.
  • Know your preferred date and backup date.
  • Estimate guest count before contacting staff.
  • Ask about kitchen, equipment and deposit requirements.

Gymnasiums and fields

For gymnasiums and fields, the official page lists BJ Hathaway as contact, email BJH@campbellca.gov, phone 408-866-2106.

  • Check gym/field availability online.
  • Ask about athletic equipment, staffing and event needs.
  • Confirm whether your use is practice, league, tournament or special event.
  • Read the fee schedule before budgeting.

Official FY 25/26 Fee Schedule PDF: What It Means for Renters

The current Master Fee Schedule PDF is useful because it explains the actual rental framework: normal operating hours, peak rates, room fees, resident discounts, non-profit rates, equipment costs, deposits and extra charges. Use this section to understand the PDF before calling staff.

PDF detail FY 25/26 information Practical meaning
Off-peak rental hours Normal operating hours are Monday–Thursday 8 a.m.–10 p.m. and Friday 8 a.m.–5 p.m., except recognized City holidays. Rates are different outside normal operating hours, so event time affects the real cost.
Resident rental discount Campbell residents receive $25 per hour discount for full Orchard City Banquet Hall rental and $5 per hour discount for other building rental rates. Bring proof of residency and make sure the permit holder and payer match.
Processing fee All applications are subject to a non-refundable $25 processing fee. Budget this even before optional equipment, janitorial or security costs.
Permit changes Changes in time, dates or use may trigger an additional $25 processing fee per occurrence if made under the stated timing rules. Confirm dates and times before submitting a rental request.
Facility preservation fee Hourly fees are subject to a 2% Facility Preservation Fee calculated at permit time. Room hourly rate is not always the final amount.
Food and janitorial fee A $100 janitorial service fee is required for rentals serving food and exceeding 75 participants. Large food events need extra budget.
Alcohol and security Security may be required for rentals serving alcohol and more than 75 participants, with security guard rates listed at $50–$70 per hour per guard. Ask staff early if your event includes alcohol.
Swimming pool rental Swimming Pool Rental is listed at $205 per hour, with lifeguards required at $25 per hour each and a minimum of two lifeguards. Pool rentals cost more than the pool hourly rate because lifeguards are required.
Rental budget tip: do not estimate a room rental from the hourly rate alone. Ask for the full quote with preservation fee, deposit, equipment, janitorial, security, lifeguards and processing fees if applicable.

Room and Facility Rental Examples from the FY 25/26 PDF

Refunds, Transfers, Cancellations and Waitlists

Registration policy details can prevent frustration. The city states that a minimum number of participants is required for a class, and the Recreation Department may cancel a program when enrollment is low. Full refunds are given when a class or program is cancelled by the Recreation Department.

Refund and transfer basics

  • Refunds, transfers and cancellations cannot be done directly in Civic Rec.
  • Written requests must be submitted through the official forms or in person at 1 W. Campbell Avenue, Room C31.
  • A $25 fee is charged for returned checks.
  • Age levels mean the participant must be that age by the class start date.
  • Proof of age may be required for some programs, including pre-school.

Satisfaction guarantee and waitlists

The city describes a satisfaction guarantee where customers who notify the Recreation Office by the second class date may be eligible for a refund or transfer using the required form. Waitlists are established once a class is filled, and vacancies close to class start may be filled quickly.

Class registration tip: if you are unsure about a class, read the refund policy before paying. If you join a waitlist, check email often because response windows may be limited.

Common Visitor Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake 1

Using only office hours

Office hours do not tell you pool session times, class times, event times, rental availability or track hours.

Mistake 2

Trying to pay cash for lap swim

Daily lap swim visits must be reserved ahead of time, and cash is not accepted on site for daily visits.

Mistake 3

Waiting until class registration day

Create your online account before registration opens. Popular camps, swim lessons and youth classes can fill quickly.

Mistake 4

Guessing rental cost from one rate

Facility rentals can include deposits, processing fees, equipment, preservation fees, janitorial and security charges.

Mistake 5

Ignoring refund forms

Refunds, transfers and cancellations require written requests through official forms or in-person office processing.

Mistake 6

Arriving without the room location

The campus has multiple buildings and rooms. Ask for room name or building number before heading to a class or event.
