Plans underway for outdoor gym in Castlepark

Galway City Council is currently working to advance plans for a new outdoor gym at Castlepark. 

The Calisthenics gym would be located at a site near East United FC, that would become known as "Castlepark Fitness Area". 

Calisthenics is a form of exercise that involves running, standing, pushing and pulling using bodyweight. 

Local Councillor Alan Cheevers says it's a hugely important project for the area.
