Stay Active!

"Regular exercise helps control blood pressure, body weight and cholesterol levels, and reduces the risks of hardening of the arteries, heart attack and stroke.”
-- ACE Fit Facts

Part of the prescription for a healthier, better retirement is exercise. Physical exercise has been proven to discourage declines in health and fitness. Join the growing number of seniors who are actively demonstrating that exercise helps keep a body strong by taking advantage of the many FREE MetroParks health and fitness amenities available everyday in a park near you!

Accessibility Guide of MetroParks

“I take my grandchildren to Carriage Hill to get them away from the daily lives of computers, cell phones and manufacturer activities…We have enjoyed the buildings, livestock, sledding, playing near the creek, walking the paths of the farm, horseback riding, the purchase of “penny candy” at the visitor center’s old fashioned store, and the opportunity to have a picnic on the grounds of the park”

– Mary Harvey
