Mayor Derrick Wood says the Fitness Court park would be built on land next to the old Dumfries-Triangle Rescue Squad. The cost will be $270,000. The National Fitness Campaign, the firm selling the outdoor gyms, will provide a $30,000 discount to the town for installing its product.
Town documents refer to the discount as a grant. According to the Fitness Court website, the outdoor gym has seven exercises. Similar Fitness Courts have been built in 500 communities across the U.S.
