AARP MA Celebrates Worcester Fitness Park

Give the AARP MA Worcester Fitness Park a Try

Here’s your chance to breathe in some crisp fall air and get a quick, free, fun workout in. Check out the AARP Sponsored Outdoor Fitness Park organized by FitLot in Worcester. It’s open to everyone. AARP helped to put the park up in 2020 to celebrate our 60th Anniversary. AARP wanted to give back to the communities we serve by making a gift that would improve the quality of life for the approximate 38 million AARP members living in the U.S. AARP donated one park to every state. Worcester is home to the Massachusetts park. While the park is by the Worcester Senior Center, it is open to all ages.

The park is complete with exercise equipment and easy to learn instructions if you need help. AARP partnered with the nonprofit FitLot in 2019 to set a goal of opening fitness parks in all 50 states, along with Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Washington, D.C. In September, AARP opened our 52nd park in Washington, DC. The 53rd park opened in Lincoln, Nebraska on Sept. 27th. FitLot is a New Orleans nonprofit that helps communities plan, build, and activate outdoor fitness parks so everyone can enjoy the health benefits of a more active lifestyle.
