PARC featured on 3MP Radio’s Peninsula Picks Podcast

August 26, 2025

We are so excited to share that PARC has been featured on 3MP’s Peninsula Picks Podcast, shining a spotlight on our vibrant community hub right here in Frankston.

In this episode, listeners get a behind-the-scenes look at what makes PARC so much more than just a recreation centre. From family fun in the pools and Splash Island, to group fitness classes, gym workouts and personal wellness goals, to the community programs and outreach that help us connect with people across Frankston and the Peninsula – it’s all covered.

You’ll also hear from some of our passionate team members, who share what it’s like to be part of PARC, the exciting range of flexible membership options, and why community truly sits at the heart of everything we do.

Whether you’re a long-time member or just discovering us for the first time, this podcast is a great way to get to know what PARC is all about – a welcoming space for everyone to move, connect and thrive.

Help us ensure PARC is a safe venue for the whole community to enjoy 🏊

At PARC, we participate in the statewide Watch Around Water program. Watch Around Water is an education and public awareness-raising program that defines the minimum supervision requirements for children in a pool setting.

When visiting PARC, your child will be given a coloured wristband, based on their age. These wristbands help our lifeguards identify the level of supervison required for your child, and support a safe aquatic environment for everyone.

Learn more about the Watch Around Water program, via the link in our bio.
