June/July Newsletter: Connecting Community through Wellness and Fun 🌞
Welcome to the Latest from McLaren Leisure!
Since our last update, McLaren Leisure has been a hub of activity, uniting our community in the pursuit of health and wellness. From action-packed school holiday activities to a wide variety of classes and our inaugural community walk of 2024, April and May have been months filled with memorable experiences for all our customers and visitors.
Swim Loch Venachar Challenge In an effort to inspire both our swimming and non-swimming community, we recently launched the 'Swim Loch Venachar' challenge. Community members eagerly signed up to swim the equivalent of either the length (330 lengths) or width (50 lengths) of Loch Venachar in our local pool. We were thrilled to see a diverse group of participants, including many who are not regular swimmers, stepping out of their comfort zones. Congratulations to everyone who participated—your determination and achievements are truly inspiring. Stay tuned for more exciting challenges throughout the year!
Mental Health Week This May, in collaboration with Callander Mental Health Matters, we dedicated our efforts to Mental Health Week. Promoting the theme 'Moments for Movement,' we encouraged everyone to move for mental health. We hosted a morning of come-and-try sports and classes aimed at promoting well-being and mindfulness. It was heartening to see our community come together to support mental health awareness and prioritize well-being. 💚
Callander Primary School Health Week In support of Callander Primary School’s Health Week, we were thrilled to welcome several classes to McLaren Leisure. Our team engaged the students in various activities to get them moving and discussed the importance of staying active for their health and wellbeing. It was a fantastic opportunity to inspire young minds and highlight how regular physical activity can enhance both physical and mental health. The enthusiasm and energy of the students were truly infectious, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration with Callander Primary to promote healthy lifestyles in our community.
