This weekend (Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 January) sees our Council’s Leisure Facilities in the West of the region open their doors and invite you all in to see what we have to offer! There’s a chance to win swimming sessions for the family, a free month membership and personal training sessions.
On Saturday 21 January, the Castle Douglas Swimming Pool and Gymnasium will be hosting a 2 hour open doors session. From 2pm to 4pm there will be free gym inductions, a chance to explore the host of equipment our gym hosts, and a series of challenges to test yourself.
On the same day in the Merrick Leisure Centre in Newton Stewart a similar open day will take place. Featuring many quick and testing gym challenges and a chance to explore the different membership packages our leisure facilities offer, why not pop into the Merrick between 2pm and 4pm and see for yourself?
Finally, in Stranraer at the Ryan Centre on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 January between 11am and 2pm (both days) there’s a chance for locals to pop into the centre and see for themselves the state of the art facilities that our Council provides in terms of health and fitness. As with the other facility open days, there will be chances to win prizes, opportunities to take part in a number of gym based challenges and talk to our knowledgeable and friendly staff about how they can help you reach your health and fitness goals.
Councillor Jeff Leaver, who chairs the Council’s Children’s, Young People and Lifelong Learning Committee commented;
“Our Council provides cost-effective fitness membership packages right across the region. Whether you’re looking to get back to the gym, taking it up for the first time or are an avid gym-goer I would encourage you to go to your local facility open day this coming weekend and find out about the equipment we use in our gyms, the multitude of classes we offer and the benefits you can gain from joining one of our leisure facilities. Remember and wear your trainers!”
All activities over the weekend are free, so come along to Castle Douglas Pool, The Merrick or The Ryan Centre and have a spin on our bikes or a stroll on our treadmills and hear how our new and exciting membership packages can benefit you.
