The Woods Fitness Park Announces New Rental Pavilion
Southwest Michigan Regional Chamber to host Ribbon Cutting and Business After Hours April 18
Benton Harbor, Michigan – What was initially an opportunity to bring fitness outdoors during COVID has turned into one of Southwest Michigan’s biggest outdoor playgrounds where guests can walk, run, crawl, jump, climb, and swing their way over 40-acres of land. The Woods Fitness Park is now expanding with the addition of a new pavilion that can be rented for a multitude of events.Open to all ages, abilities, and even dogs, The Woods Fitness Park provides hours of outdoor fun with over 60 obstacles and fun zones, walking trails, and the peaceful sounds of nature. Open sunrise to sunset daily, The Woods currently offers opportunities for summer camps, get-togethers, birthday parties, corporate events, or solo outdoor enthusiasts. Some of the obstacles include monkey bars, tunnels, ropes, walls, and a zip-line that allow for both individual and team development challenges.
“While thinking of the next phase to The Woods, a Pavilion was a natural addition. We already offer picnic tables and a grill for visitors to use, now we have a dedicated area that provides shelter from unfavorable weather and doubles as a dedicated space for groups and parties to gather,” says owner Michael Petlick.
The 1,500 square foot Pavilion will be able to accommodate 100 plus people at tables, adding an extra element of both shelter and respite from days filled with sun and fun at the park.
“Nature is one of our most under-appreciated and under-utilized amenities in Southwest Michigan. We applaud Mike and his team for the skillful way they combined nature together with fitness and fun, creating a must-visit destination for visitors and locals alike,” says Arthur Havlicek, President & CEO of the Southwest Michigan Regional Chamber.
The Woods will serve as host once again to the Midwest Canine Obstacle Run June 7th through the 9th. Participants will compete in the 5k with their canine partners on a leash as they tackle wooded trials, creek beds, dirt and water, along with over 40 obstacles to test teams of all abilities. Interested parties are encouraged to visit midwestcanineobstaclerun.com or search “Midwest Canine Obstacle Run” on Facebook.
