Summer is here which means a couple of things. Sadly, our Seniors Community Provincial Grant has run its course, but we did get a good run of six months of free classes. We are now moving to a summer schedule which means some classes will take a break, and other programs will be popping up! We have moved the outdoor classes to the Coronation Centre parking lot this year. It has been swept and ready to see some action. We also have Aqua Fit classes at Prince Charles Pool with our very own Tammy and don't forget you can lane swim (18+) at Mitcheslon, F.H Leslie and the Lions Club seven days a week.
Remember This Place? Outdoor Fitness to start July 5
This is the Coronation Centre's solitary looking parking lot. But not for long...yes folks, we are one step closer to getting back to the Centre. Can I get a hurrah! (enter the Mariachi band, singers, dancers, magicians and cheerleaders). I am delighted to announce we will start outdoor fitness classes in the parking lot of the centre. The classes will be drop in with no pre registration required. You can pay cash at each class, or purchase a fitness pass from your instructor. (cash or cheque only please. Cheques made payable to 'City of Niagara Falls'). We will use the Centre's equipment such as weights and bands for the classes. If you have your own equipment and prefer to use them please feel to bring them with you.
We cannot permit anyone into the Centre therefore, a Porta Potty will be available for use. It will only be used by Coronation members and locked after each class. Although the Porta Potty will be cleaned regularly, there will also be plenty of sanitizing wipes available.
The parking lot will be closed, therefore please park on summer street, or at our upper parking lot on Summer and Lowell. Alternatively, the Cash and Carry across the street is also a good spot.
Now that the grant has ended, each outdoor fitness class will cost $2.50 a visit.
