Parks & Recreation
From master plan sessions to community surveys, the feedback for Park Directors is consistent: residents want free-to-use, accessible outdoor fitness equipment for adults. The Fitness Court is the definitive answer to that demand—a permanent, power-free installation designed for everyone ages 14 and up. By removing the financial barriers to exercise, the Fitness Court does more than improve physical health, it serves as a social hub that boosts mental well-being and fosters regular community connection.
Here is how park departments are leveraging the Fitness Court to transform their communities:
750+ Parks Departments and Districts Have Brought a Fitness Court® to Their Community
Parks directors across the country are building free outdoor fitness into their community wellness strategy.
“The Fitness Court is a wonderful opportunity to create a community space that further enhances the quality of life for our residents. Partnering with the National Fitness Campaign and BCBSTX allows the city to provide a high-quality fitness amenity that is free and open to everyone.”
“This project reflects our ongoing commitment to creating spaces where residents can thrive. The Fitness Court brings another innovative, free resource to our community—one that supports wellness, connection, and active lifestyles for all.”
“Bringing a Fitness Court to a rural county like ours is an important milestone. It creates new opportunities for residents to stay active and reflects Jones County’s commitment to improving recreation for everyone.”
“With the convenient placement of the new Fitness Court, located just outside our Senior Center and within walking distance of two schools and the Police Station, we know that many residents and Town employees will be able to make use of the equipment to live a more active, healthier life.”
