The City of Kennesaw and Kennesaw Parks & Recreation celebrated the opening of the new Fit Station at Swift-Cantrell Park with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Friday, Oct. 25. The park is located at 3140 Old 41 Hwy NW. The 24-by-54-foot Fit Station features 12 exercise stations, all built on a poured rubber surface for improved accessibility. Equipment includes a Cardio Walker, Captain’s Chair, Recumbent Cycle, Chest Press, Bench Dip Station, Leg Press, Lat Pull-Down, Balance Board, Horizontal Chin-Up, Hand Cycle and Low Push-Up Bar. Designed for a complete workout, it allows users to train in aerobic fitness, muscle strength, balance, core stability and flexibility. The station is also equipped with Langy FTO1 Series Solar Lights, providing ample illumination during park hours. The project was funded through impact fees. Kennesaw remains dedicated to encouraging a healthy, active lifestyle for residents of all ages. The Fit Station is the latest addition to help citizens achieve their fitness goals.
