Amsterdam NY Recreation's Veterans Park Adds MoveStrong Outdoor Fitness
The planing process for the walking path at Amsterdam’s Vetrans Park led them to MoveStrong for a mixture of fitness and obstacle course challenges for park givers to enjoy while walking or jogging the fitness path.
The MoveStrong T-Rex Outdoor FTS provides a multi-station for many users at once to workout and or take part in group fitness training classed. Other FitGround stations along the trail include Cargo Net and Rope climb, Elite Parallel Bars, Push-up bars, Plyo Steps, Zig-Zag Balance Beam, and A-Wall Climber
Amsterdam Recreation decided to reach out to area business to help support efforts and raise money for the new outdoor fitness addition. They found a great sponsor, Sticker Mule, willing to support their efforts in bringing more fitness to the community.
From Amsterdam’s Recreation department… “Thank you to a Great Community Partner Anthony Constantino and Sticker Mule . Mule Fitness is now ready for use at Veteran's Park
