Fit3D Body Scan
The Fit3D allows you to obtain a full 3D image of your body from a 40-second scan. This scan
provides information about your body measurements, weight, posture, composition, and
wellness, and delivers the data to you through a private account. Record multiple
scans over time and track your fitness progress!
Contact the Paterson front desk to set up a scan.
Tennis Complex
Both adult and youth courts are now open from dawn to dusk for the season.
In recognition of his leadership and love of the game, the tennis facilities at BCC
were dedicated in honor of the college's 6th president, Dr. Paul E. Raverta. The complex
boasts three standard adult courts and two "10 and Under" courts for children.
The Paul E. Raverta Tennis Complex, which is open to the public, was made possible
by the Berkshire Bank Foundation, Berkshire Bank Foundation—Legacy Region, Petricca
Industries, USTA Western Mass, USTA New England, and USTA National.
For more information about the courts, please call 413-236-1661.
