ARV Awards 2026

On Friday night the industry celebrated the annual Aquatics & Recreation Victoria Awards 2026, recognising the best in the business. We had an incredible night, celebrating our achievements with one amazing win, and two Highly Commended.   A huge congratulations to our ARV Winner Mel Angerosa who took home the trophy for Membership Sales. We are incredibly proud of Mel, who is a much-loved member of our PARC family, and very deserving of this honour.   Our Can Swim Program, received the honour of Highly Commended in the Community Impact Initiative of the Year Award category, recognising the impact this program has had on the wider Frankston community in providing fully subsidised swim programs, to teach lifesaving water safety skills.   Frankston Skatepark also received a Highly Commended in the Facility of the Year (Small) category. As the only Skate Park nominated, we couldn’t be be prouder of our incredible Skate Park team, and are excited that their hard work was recognised at this prestigious event.   We are so proud to have been recognised with these prestigious industry awards.  
  Congratulations to our nominees and winners!
