MONBULK Aquatic centre will hold two ‘mega’ fitness classes next month for a very special cause.
The centre will be raising money for the Royal Children’s Hospital with a mega aquafit session on Thursday 2 April and mega fitness class on Good Friday, 3 April.
Dave Florance, the centre’s new manager, is keen and looking forward to getting involved in local and deserving programs such as The Good Friday Appeal.
“We are looking forward to filling the pool with people for this great cause,” Dave said.
“Aquafit is suitable for all ages – it’s fun and a great way of keeping fit.”
In conjunction with the classes, the centre will be running a mega raffle, with tickets on sale soon. They aim to have 100 people participate in the aquafit class, and invite people of all fitness ages and fitness levels to join.
The aquafit class will run from 7.30pm-8.30pm on Thursday 2 April, with a gold coin donation on entry. The fitness class will be held at Baynes Park from 10am-11am on Friday 3 April, with a $5 donation on entry. All money raised will go to the Good Friday Appeal.
The Monbulk Aquatic Centre is located at 26 Baynes Park Road, Monbulk.
