Southern Aroostook Fitness Course at
Houlton Community Park


To help fight the obesity epidemic that is becoming a real problem around the country, STOP decided that with the help of volunteers, companies in the area and other agencies they would re-create a fitness course in the Houlton Community Park. The location is different since all exercise stations are visible from almost all areas around the park. The 7 stations are set up so that from the parking lot near the rollerskate park, it is almost a ½ mile to go through the course and back to the parking lot. So not only do you get your weight training but also the aerobic portion of a fitness plan. A bonus to the course being centrally located is that the jr. and sr. high school can also use it for their physical education programs.

The Southern Aroostook Fitness Course was opened on June 19, 2006
