Diving In for local health – A splash of support for Peninsula Health

Father’s Day at PARC was extra special this year – not just because of all the fun and family bonding, but also because we had the chance to give back to an important cause right here in our community!

We’re excited to announce that, thanks to everyone who enjoyed a splash at PARC on Father’s Day, we were able to donate $1,051 to Peninsula Health. That’s 20% of our casual pool entry fees from Sunday, 1st September 2024, are going straight toward helping support local prostate cancer services through Peninsula Health.

This donation will help Peninsula Health in acquiring essential equipment for the early detection of prostate cancer, giving our local dads (and all men!) the best possible chance at early diagnosis and better health outcomes.

It’s partnerships like these that really show what we can achieve when we come together as a community. We’re so proud to be able to contribute and work alongside Peninsula Health to make a difference in people’s lives.

Thank you to everyone who visited us on Father’s Day – your swim made a splash in more ways than one!

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to support local initiatives that benefit the Frankston community.

It’s been a big year behind the scenes at PARC 👏

Working alongside Frankston City Council, our Asset & Facilities team delivered major upgrades across the Centre — all focused on creating the best possible experience for our members and community. While much of this work happens quietly, its impact is felt every day.

That commitment was recognised in June, when PARC was named Facility of the Year (Large) at the Aquatics & Recreation Victoria Excellence Awards 🏆

📊 The numbers behind the work:
• 1,238 planned and reactive maintenance and upgrade projects
• 2,145 contractors supported on site

🚧 Tiling Upgrade Project 
💧 New Boiler Installation 
🛝 Water Slide & Tower Refurbishment Project 
🏗️ Upgrades to heating and cooling through the Centre (HVAC Project) 
🛟 Instillation of Lynxight 
🧘‍♀️ Reformer Pilates Studio 

From the whole team at PARC, we would like to extend a massive thank you to you, our fantastic members and patrons, for your ongoing patience and support throughout these upgrades. We hope that you enjoy the improvements made and look forward to another year together at PARC!
