Come on down to PARC on Monday 16 March for our famous Let’s Move Launch Party! Our Launch Party kicks off our month long ‘Let’s Move for a Better World’ campaign, focused on fighting obesity and change sedentary lifestyles.

This year our Launch Party will be bigger and better.

Come on down, learn how to donate your MOVES, and get involved in loads of fun, free activities. You don’t want to miss this one.

What is Let’s Move?
Each year Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre (PARC) commits to a worldwide campaign called Let’s Move for a Better World, running throughout March and April. This campaign is a global campaign to help fight obesity and change sedentary lifestyles.

The goal is to encourage the Frankston community to MOVE, by coming to PARC and “donating” their physical activity (“MOVES”). Each MOVE goes towards a grand prize of Gym Equipment, that we then donate to a local school or community group. In previous years we have hit 3 Million MOVES and donated close to $40,000 worth of Gym Equipment to Frankston High School and McClelland College through this fantastic initiative.

How do I donate moves?
1. Download the PARC Fit App from the App store or goggle play (type in PARC Fit)
2. Once you have downloaded the PARC Fit App, go to the challenge tile and join the Let’s Move for a Better World 2020
3. From 16 March – 4 April, every time you are on the cardio equipment at PARC, donate your MOVES!
4. If you get stuck, please see any of our friendly trainers on the Gym floor.

Join the challenge now for your change to WIN a heart rate monitor
If you download the PARC Fit App and join our Let’s Move Challenge before the Let’s Move Launch Party on Monday 16 March, you go into the draw to WIN a HEART RATE MONITOR valued at $180. The winner will be announced at the Launch Party!

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!
