Greater Shepparton City Council officially launched its 2018 – 2019 Activities in the Park program today, running from September 2018 through to April 2019.
The program provides an opportunity for Greater Shepparton residents and visitors to participate in a number of free and low cost activities, encouraging people to be outdoors and get active.
More than 200 activities are on offer for people of all ages and ability to enjoy, providing a great opportunity to utilise the well-established parks, pools and outdoor spaces in the region.
This season’s program features many of our favourite activities however it also features new ones that Activities in the Park hasn’t previously included such as Outdoor Fitness Circuit, Old School Yard Games, Taekwondo, Salsa Reuda in the Park, Playground Escapade Bus Tour, Plogging in the Park and much more.
Greater Shepparton City Council Director Community Kaye Thomson thanked everyone for their involvement in the program, particularly the local businesses, clubs and associations for their delivery of activities and support of the program.
“I encourage residents and visitors to the region to look over the program, invite their friends and attend some of the activities that are on offer. The activities are open for everyone, so come along and enjoy being active in the outdoors,” said Ms Thomson.
