Welcome to 2024: Find your people, your purpose and your place at PARC

Welcome to 2024

As we reflect on the transformative year that was 2023, we can’t help but be inspired by our incredible PARC community. The theme of Future You resonated powerfully throughout the year, prompting our members to envision their best selves and map out the journey to their desired health futures. It was a year of progress and a shared commitment to health and wellbeing.

As we step into 2024, we’re inviting our community to express their aspirations through a few simple sentences:

  • The people who motivate me at PARC are ____
  • My purpose at PARC is to____
  • PARC is my _____ place
  • My People. My Purpose. My place at PARC!

Looking ahead, 2024 is poised to be a year of growth and progress. We encourage you to contemplate your health priorities and the role they play in your overall wellbeing. Starting this January, we’ll work with you to reflect on the motivating forces at PARC, your purpose within our community, and the special place PARC holds in your life.

Move more in 2026 with 30-20-2 💙

Life is busy, and finding time to exercise can feel overwhelming. Being active isn’t about pushing yourself to the limit — it’s about moving consistently and finding a balance that works for you. And you don’t have to do it alone.

Introducing 30-20-2, our simple movement guide based on the Australian Physical Activity Guidelines, designed to make movement achievable and part of everyday life.

Here’s what it means. 

Adults in Australia should aim for: 

30 mins moderate activity daily 🚶‍♂️🏊‍♂️
Moderate activity means you’re moving, breathing comfortably, and able to speak in full sentences. Think swimming, a brisk walk, or joining a PARC class. 

OR 

20 mins vigorous activity daily 🏃‍♂️🚴‍♂️
Vigorous activity gets your heart pumping—you’re breathing hard and speaking in short bursts. Try a cycle class, HIIT session, or a gym workout. 

AND 

2 strength sessions per week 💪🏋‍♂️
Build strength with resistance training. Try lifting weights the gym, or a Reformer Pilates class. 

Throughout 2026, we’ll support you with the right mix of classes, programs, and expert guidance to help you move more, your way.

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!
