AARP Outdoor Fitness Park Organized by FitLot is Open


A new outdoor fitness space located at Jaycee Centennial Park, 321 E. Century Ave. is now complete, open and ready for all ages and abilities. AARP has teamed up with the non-profit FitLot to bring an outdoor fitness space to all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Bismarck was chosen as the North Dakota location.

The fitness park is located in the “upper” portion of Jaycee Park with easy access from the parking lot off of N. 4th St. The equipment has step by step instructions on how to use it safely and effectively. Watch for both introductory and circuit training classes with Bismarck Parks and Recreation District certified instructors in the spring of 2021, but until then, anyone may improve strength, stamina and balance by using the equipment.

As a reminder, please ensure social distancing at the fitness park and be sure to wipe down the equipment before and after use.
