Feel Alive - And Get Active

People of all ages are enjoying the chance to have fun and feel alive at free events this summer from Active Dover – including the fantastic Feel Alive and Get Active day held at Victoria Park and Tides Leisure Centre in Deal on Saturday, (6 June).

Around 1,500 people came along to enjoy a range of activities at Victoria Park, including an archery and mountain bike skills areas, the TechZone Gaming Truck, 5-a-side football tournaments, chances to have a go at tennis, cricket, hockey, golf, rugby and family fun games, beginner sessions in BMX, skateboarding, and inline skating, and a skate bowl competition led by Revolution.  A packed series of events in the Sports Hall included table tennis, cheerleading, Tai Chi, street dance, fitness, and dance performances by Kent Youth Service.  The event, which was previously known as Passport 2 Sport, was organized by Active Dover.

Active Dover is a new partnership aimed at ensuring you have plenty of ways to keep fit, healthy and stay active, no matter what your age.  Active Dover is made up of a range of partners in the community. 

The day in Deal was the second in a series of three exciting events organized by Active Dover as part of Feel Alive 2009.   This follows an event at Fowlmead Park on Bank Holiday Monday (25 May), and a forthcoming Get Wet event is being held at Pencester Gardens, Dover Sea Sports Centre and Dover Leisure Centre on Saturday 18 July.
