STIMPSON FIELD PARK

Construction of the new Fitness Court outdoor gym has begun in Stimpson Field park, west of the Mike Ford Tennis Complex on Morphy Avenue.

Its  cost is being financed by a $40K Blue Cross/Shield grant, $40K donation from the Rotary Club, $40K for Single Tax Corp. and $40K from the city. (Total cost estimated $155K.)

Design will be the same as other fitness courts around the country, such as in Daphne. 

The old fitness course installed in the park 10 years ago is to be removed; it has become deteriorated over time.

Fighting obesity is the goal of the courts, according to documentation provided.

Maybe the fitness court will help alleviate the parking problem uptown.
