Fitness Boxes
In the area of Pyhäjoki are located Fitness Boxes, in which are notebooks where everyone can write down their own exercise performance. Into these notebooks are written down the date, name and the exercise done (walking, running, cycling, skiing, roller skating, etc.). All notebooks are changed to new ones as needed.
Because the notebooks get filled up in different paces, the filling and the need of the change of them can be reported to the Leisure Activity Office or the Municipality Office's Advisory. The exerciser can also take the full notebook and bring it to the Municipality Office. When a full notebook is brought to the Office, a new notebook is given straight away, which can be brought to the Fitness Box.
Seuraava kuntolaatikkoarvonta järjestetään tammikuussa 2020. Voittajalle luvassa kävelysauvat ja muita liikunnallisia tavarapalkintoja!
