State-of-the-Art Rogue X Officially Open for Business in Medford, OR

New community recreation facility to serve needs of area residents while providing economic impact as top regional event destination

For residents of Medford and Southern Oregon’s Rogue Valley, Saturday, Jan. 6, was a momentous day, as they celebrated the grand opening of the sparkling new Rogue Credit Union Community Complex, also known as Rogue X.

On that day, the new 140,000 square-foot, $76 million recreational facility officially opened its doors to the public. And the occasion was much more than just a ribbon cutting, as immediately the center was bustling with activity. The new state-of-the-art aquatic and event center has many features for area residents and traveling visitors to enjoy. The main attractions are a 76,000 square-foot multipurpose event center; an indoor recreation pool featuring two water slides and a 13-lane indoor competition pool; an outdoor splash pad and a food truck pod.

Events bookings are already stacking up, and officials are encouraged by the early enthusiasm and the sheer variety of events, community gatherings and sporting activities currently lined up at Rogue X.

“The response has been pretty overwhelming,” said Brad King, director of sports development for Travel Medford. “There are 40-plus events already booked on weekends, including an array of activities like tournaments and trade shows.”

Travel Medford is contracted to promote Rogue X and help recruit events to fill the new city-owned facility, which is managed by Medford Parks & Recreation.
