Aucklanders can now exercise for free at an outdoor beach gym on Ōrewa Reserve.
To mark the centenary of Lions Clubs worldwide, Ōrewa Lions donated a leg-press/sit-up bench, a cycle strider/stretching bench and two picnic tables.
The equipment has instructions for use, and QR codes providing more information to users with smartphones.
Ultimately, an exercise circuit will be set up, and more equipment will be added as funds allow.
Carvers from the Northland Region Corrections Facility at Ngawha made the new picnic tables, which are an attractive addition to Ōrewa Reserve.
