Port Stanley's Gym


New Year's resolutions included updating the website- done, getting on facebook-done,and starting a blog-done....also going back to the gym. For 5 years I was pretty dedicated to exercising there -at least 3 times a week- and then one day I was simply tired of it. However after an 18 month hiatus I decided to beat the January blahs by giving it a try again. And I love it.

Life in Port is enjoyable in part due to the convenience and location of everything. The gym , The Port Stanley Fitness Centre( in the Wharf Building) is a half block from the marina, visible from our south deck and open for members 24/7. And what a great view the gym rats have ! Fishing boats and the lift bridge are just 30 feet away from the big windows facing the harbour.

Larry & Dan,who own the place, are in and out during the day, and always ready to share the latest happenings of life in Port. Its busy enough to be welcoming but never too crowded or having line ups for the equipment Most days there's always some friendly locals to talk to ,with summer visitors and guests from the nearby inns dropping by on occasion.

Just another good reason for Living in Port !
Wishing You Fair Winds,
Fiona

  1. Congrats on the new blog!
    Looking forward to reading the Port 'Vox Pop', knowing it is such a nice way to keep a finger on the pulse of a wonderful community. One that I will always call 'home' no matter where I reside.
    Fiona, you have always been a contemporary, up to date and relevant scribe. Your input will surely grace the blog with insight and promotion of the village of Port Stanley.
    Bets wishes on the launch, and Happy 25th!
    You and J.J. have seen many changes!
