We are trying to gather attention towards building a TrekFit park; outdoor fitness park in Pickering. TrekFit is a Canadian company with 4 current parks in Toronto and multiple locations between Montreal, and Kingston, Ontario. But NOTHING in the Greater Toronto Area. TrekFit parks include; pullup bars, parallel bars, low bars for pushups and assisted pullups, step benches for leg exercises, and other optional equipment. All parks are equipped with visual instructional boards to teach the user how to safely use equipment and provides information about each each exercise.


Calisthenics and Street Workout are becoming more popular in Canada. Pickering needs a location in order to help the calisthenic fitness movement grow within the GTA!

I am currently reaching out to local officials to demand a formal review of available public spaces for this equipment. Post our petition link to your Facebook feed today so they know this community expects action. Send a text to three neighbors asking them to sign because our local representatives need to see that this demand is real.

The momentum behind this park is undeniable and catches the attention of city officials. Post this link to your Facebook feed right now so we keep the pressure on our local representatives.

Just another way to get people in the community out & exercising & enjoying the city's recreation. Definitely worth the investment.

This is an awesome plan. Some people can't afford to pay for gym memberships and it's just like building any other park.

We had a park with calisthenics equipments in my previous city and it’s a GREAT social place as well, brings life to a park, makes everybody happy. That will be great for us.

This could be a much needed park and Pickering is one of the only cities or towns without one.

I believe outdoor fitness parks would promote healthy living among teens and adults. As well encourage a healthy community throughout Pickering.
