Kennedy Park Outdoor Fitness Area
This afternoon I stopped by Kennedy Park in Coconut Grove to check out the new fitness area which was completed in January. Take a look at the pictures below; I think you’ll agree that the $24,500 investment has paid itself off already. The fitness area was packed with people of all ages. Again congratulations to Commissioner Mark Sarnoff, for allocating quality-of-life funds for this initiative. The fitness area is undeniably making our community healthier.

I ride my bike and use this fitness area a few times a week. There are always people using it from all age groups.
In this new age of healthcare, if we are to promote a healthy lifestyle, installing these in more local parks, should be a top priority. A free gym that neighbors can walk to, promotes a healthy work out and a great spot to meet some of your neighbors.
If the city is going to fund a dog park, maybe it should be mandatory to simultaneously install a fitness park as well.
PS…Dogs should be leashed in the park, even when you are walking your dog, to and from, the dog park.
These would be really neat at the new Brickell Avenue park.
