Those in Beaver County who are invested in their wellness and exercise–or those who want to start–will soon have a new opportunity in a new location.

On Saturday, October 15, a new Fitness Court will be officially opened by Chippewa Township at Wright Field @ Veteran’s Park. The track was created in conjunction with the National Fitness Campaign, whose app will allow users to follow along with everyday classes on their phone. The NFC also donated a $30,000 grant to Chippewa Township for the building of the Fitness Court.

Chippewa Township Parks and Recreation director Lauren Doyle spoke about the new addition to Wright Field @ Veteran’s Park with Matt Drzik on the October 6 edition of A.M. Beaver County. Doyle stated that the fitness court is free to use and is open to the public in Beaver County. “We’re hoping to have the local high school athletes and local police to come out and do competitions and just have a good time,” Doyle stated. She added that there will be a local fitness trainer and several scheduled classes throughout the week: “We have the flexibility to work around what the community wants.”
