K9 Indoor Training Areas / Kathryn Hall

Made possible through the generosity of Kathryn McMillan, this one-story building adjoins the new MAAC Headquarters and provides a flexible, climate-controlled space where first responders can train year-round. Inside, K9 teams will find two separate specialized training areas, helping prepare dogs and handlers for search and rescue, detection, and law enforcement operations.

Kathryn Hall includes two bay training areas, a fully equipped dog wash station, a parking area for officers transporting K9 units, and a multi-purpose classroom that can be used by any responder discipline. These features create an environment that is both practical and humane, offering safe, efficient, and realistic training scenarios that enhance teamwork and performance.

The East and West Bay Areas each measure 40’ x 45’ that provide 1,800 square feet of floor space where separate teams can train. Between the East and West Bay is an overhead door that allows K9 props and equipment to move between each bay.
