The Salvation Army Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Centers
The Salvation Army Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Center, or Kroc Centers, offer state-of-the-art fitness facilities to the community. Our local center is designed to promote health, wellness, and community engagement. With a wide range of amenities and programs, we provide a welcoming environment for people of all ages and fitness levels in the area.
The 98,000 square-foot Quincy Kroc Center redefines what a community center is all about. This unprecedented place of gathering and enrichment houses an array of education, sports, faith, arts and supportive programs never before assembled in our region. The programs, as well as the building itself, have been designed to stimulate the mind, body and spirit, to provide hope, and to transform the life of each and every member of the community.
The Kroc Center is comprised of several major components: a center of worship and performance venue, an aquatics center, fitness and recreation center, classrooms, and special event facilities.
Development of The Kroc Center was made possible by a $40 million combined capital and endowment grant from a bequest to The Salvation Army by the late Mrs. Joan Kroc, widow of McDonald’s founder Ray Kroc. As a condition to the significant Kroc grant, the community also raised $8.6 million locally, representing a total community investment of nearly $50 million.
Construction of The Quincy Kroc Center began in November 2009, and the facility opened in September 2011.
