Outdoor Fitness Equipment

The Marion VAMC is located at 2401 West Main Street, Marion, IL. An outdoor fitness station would allow space for additional fitness equipment that can be used for both employees and veterans. Since 2018 VHA has announced Whole Health implementation to be a national priority. Adding an outdoor fitness station will allow the Whole Health Recreational Therapists as well as many other disciplines such as Physical therapy, Occupational therapy to expand services and begin offering additional strengthening, fitness, and wellness classes. The outdoor fitness gym will have a total of 10 Fitness Stations with capacity to support approximately 16 people. Two stations were purchased last year for this project. Eight additional stations will be purchased for this project completion. The outdoor fitness equipment will be installed into concrete with a rubberized top offering a strong, stable foundation and safety with use. Three custom shade sails are part of the equipment package for sun protection.  Also included are the in-ground general installation instructions. Upon completion of the contract, the Marion VAMC will have a new outdoor fitness station for both employees and veterans to focus on self-care, health, wellness, and fitness. The outdoor fitness equipment will be installed into concreted pads offering a strong and stable foundation for use. VA Project No. 657A5-23-121 has been submitted by Marion Engineering for the installation of the concrete pad.
