Community Room
Our Community Room is spacious, and with the glass wall, seems even larger. South Bellevue Community Center can easily accommodate up to 150 for sit-down dinners. The community room has a wall divider for those needing space for 75 or fewer.
Bellevue Climbing Wall
The Bellevue Climbing Wall is 33 feet tall and sculpted to look and feel like Index granite. The wall offers three belay ropes with at least five climbing routes of varying degrees of difficulty per rope, and a bouldering or horizontal traverse wall. Advanced climbers can take advantage of the wall's natural-looking granite for the ultimate texture climb.
We offer a variety of programs for all skills levels including classes, staffed belay sessions, youth camps and rentals for birthday parties, team-building and other celebration events. Minimum climbing age is 6 years old.
Gymnasium
Short on space at home to have a bunch of kids running around? Why not rent the South Bellevue Community Center gym for an hour? Older kids can play basketball, volleyball or running games. Kids five and under will love the indoor play equipment, which includes bikes, cars, mats and large balls. The classroom can be rented too for serving food.
