Facilities

The outstanding athletic facilities at Harvey offer our student-athletes a competitive edge. Many of the fields have been upgraded in the past three years and plans are in place to continue this effort. The athletic center houses three basketball/volleyball courts, the fitness center, the trainer’s room and locker rooms.

Athletic Fields

Harvey athletics are blessed with an abundance of athletic fields throughout the campus. The recently renovated RK Fields complex (located at the Evarts Rink entrance) boasts two full-playing fields and a half field. The majority of our game fields are located next to the school’s main entrance.

Fenstermacher Athletic Center

Gym

Our spacious facility includes two basketball/volleyball courts, a state- of-the-art fitness room, athletic training room, athletic department offices and locker rooms. The area includes 14,000 square feet of space that can be utilized by fall and spring coaches when weather makes outdoor practice difficult. In addition to serving our athletic teams, the athletic center is used throughout the day by students, faculty and staff for physical fitness and intramural activities. Completed in the fall of 2012, the Fenstermacher Athletic Center is in constant use by our students, teams and outside groups.

McConnell Gym

Located adjacent to Carter Hall, the McConnell Gym provides a third basketball/volleyball court used throughout the fall and winter.

Tennis Courts

Tennis courts at Harvey School

The John G. Davis Tennis Center honors Harvey 1950 alumnus John G. Davis, whose father, Dwight Filley Davis, is credited with establishing the Davis Cup. John G. Davis, who died in 2014, named Harvey in his Charitable Remainder Trust. A majority of those funds went to building the tennis courts.

The tennis courts are situated on the open fields adjacent to the upper campus parking lot on Harvey's 125-acre campus. Harvey offers competitive boys and girls varsity, JV, and middle school tennis teams.

Fitness Center

In the Fenstermacher Athletic Center, students, faculty, and staff have the choice of using 10 cutting-edge cardiovascular machines (Cybex Arc Trainers, Cybex Treadmills, Octane XRide Bikes and Expresso Bikes).

Additionally, the room contains a TRX Multimount, medicine balls, barbells and a Precor universal. The room is designed for cardiovascular exercise and light strength and conditioning workouts. The room is open throughout the day and after school for our community to utilize.

We also offer a well-stocked weight room  with all of the training equipment our student-athletes need to be in prime condition for their athletic endeavors.

Ledes Nature Trail

Independent filmmaker Richard Ledes '71 fondly remembers once cutting back saplings and removing branches to make a path through the woods from Sylvan Hall to the science labs in a nearby building. 

That path is now a nature trail named in honor of the Ledes family, recognizing their contribution to helping Harvey grow. The Sally and John Ledes Nature Trail, named for Richard’s parents, begins across from the Krasne Middle School building and has a second entry point near the Walker Center for the Arts, continuing as far as RK Field. The trail is used for cross country and encourages all students to fully experience the beauty of Harvey's 125-acre campus.
