New Fitness Equipment At Recreation Facilities

Sunshine Coast recreation facilities are getting a fresh update, we’re upgrading treadmills, rowers and bikes so they won’t stop before you do! 

From February 19 to 21, new fitness equipment will be installed at three SCRD weight rooms, offering community members modern, user-friendly options to support their fitness goals. Fitness equipment replacement is an ongoing process – staff monitor and evaluate existing equipment, review public feedback to select and purchase new equipment, and create a cycle of replacement for equipment that has reached its end of life.       

So what’s new at each location? 

• Gibsons and Area Community Centre: Hydraulic circuit training equipment, treadmills, and rowing machines. 

• Sechelt Aquatic Centre: New treadmills, rowing machines, and spin bikes.  

• Pender Harbour Aquatic and Fitness Centre: A new treadmill, elliptical machine, and upright bicycles. 

Although the new equipment is designed to be intuitive and easy to use, for $15, users can sign up for on-site orientation sessions with attendants who will provide information on the safe use of the equipment.
