Asheville Parks & Recreation (APR) recently renovated fitness centers at Linwood Crump Shiloh and Stephens-Lee community centers – and community members can enjoy use of cardio equipment, exercise machines, free weights, open gym time, and more through June 30, 2023. During this time, APR will waive membership and daily pass fees so more people can access the necessities for a regular fitness routine. Locals can sign up online or at either community center to receive a fitness center key fob that can be scanned at either location.
“Our team is committed to creating spaces in which everyone feels welcome,” according to D. Tyrell McGirt, APR Director. “We are in the community building business. The gyms and fitness rooms at these two locations are filled with everything you’d expect from other top-notch fitness facilities and dedicated to body positivity and accessible wellness. By waiving the cost to use them for the first six months of the year, we hope more friends and neighbors will be able to connect with each other and maintain healthy lifestyles.”

Asheville GreenWorks is hosting a Pollinator Day booth for its Bee City USA program at the North Asheville Tailgate Market. Pollenteers will paint bees & flowers on children’s knuckles and outfit them with bee or butterfly antennae for a scavenger hunt of the market to find the foods that benefit from the help of a pollinator and win a prize. Don’t miss the caterpillar zoo!

CarePartners will hold a free and informative presentation about the essential aspects of Hospice and Advanced Care Planning. Advance Care Planning involves sometimes hard to navigate legal documents which allow you to give directions for your future medical care. This session is designed to help you understand these important documents so that your medical wishes are known in writing. It is important to have these directives at any age.
Light refreshments will be provided and the event is free and RSVP’s are requested by Friday, June 16 to [email protected]
Learn more about the CarePartners Hospice program.
