A program from the dedication of Judd Gymnasia's west gymnasium on Feb. 6, 1912. The program contains a listing of all the dedicatory exercises from that afternoon which included several greetings and addresses, including one from Luther Halsey Gulick, a presentation of the keys and a gymnastic exhibition. Judd Gymnasia was the first building erected on the new land purchased for the YMCA Training School, now Springfield College, along Massasoit Lake in Springfield, Massachusetts. Morrissey and Shea’s Corporation completed construction on the building in September of 1894 and it was formally opened on October 26, 1894. In 1910, trustees authorized the addition of a second gymnasium and swimming pool. The new gymnasium, completed in February of 1912, was designed by architect Edward Lippincott Tilton and known as West Gymnasium. Series were added to this collection, changing the file name.
