Fitness fans now have more motivation to work out in Te Awamutu,
thanks to new exercise equipment installed in Pioneer Park.
A 4.8m slackline set, hip swing and an endless rope machine were
donated by Waipā Masonic Lodge with help from the Potter Masonic
Trust.
Jill Taylor – a Te Awamutu and Kihikihi Community Board member –
helped arrange the donation, having seen the need for it in Te Awamutu.
Community services manager Brad Ward said it was a terrific bonus for
people who enjoy keeping active in Waipā, and with daylight saving time
here it’s a great time to give it a go.
“This apparatus is free for everyone to use, which means people who
don’t have access to gym membership or equipment at home have the
opportunity to work out.
“The exercise equipment will complement the range of activities already
available at Pioneer Park. It is a prime spot for the community with the
pools, library, playgrounds, and rose garden right there too.”
The popular park is on the corner of Selwyn Lane and Gorst Avenue.
