Activities
FREE & low cost activities in Greater Shepparton
Council’s award winning Activities in the Park program encourages Greater Shepparton residents to get out and
be active in our local parks.Activities in the Park offers over 200 free and low
cost activities for everyone to enjoy. There is a range of interesting and exciting activities to help you stay
healthy, active and connected in Greater Shepparton.I would like to especially recognise and give thanks to
our sponsors Tatura Milk Industries, Unilever and Parks Victoria.
I look forward to hearing about the success of this program and hope you are able to participate.
“In order for me to give my maximum in training and competition it’s extremely important to lead a healthy lifestyle, which not only incorporates fuellingyour body with healthy foods and water, but enough sleep and keeping active to encourage a healthy mind as well as body.I juggle a busy netball schedule for both the Melbourne Vixens and England National side so it’s vital i maintain a balanced lifestyle.Making time and being organised is key, knowing when to have a break and to enjoy the simple things of being active and getting outdoors.After all it’s a great way for me as a non-local to meet and make friends with new people in the community.”

GeocachingWhileoutwalkingyoumaywishtomakeitmoreinteresting.Combining walking with some basic technology is referred to as GEOCACHING.
Geocaching is a free high-tech treasure hunting activity where you use a Global Positioning System (GPS)tofindcacheshiddenbyotherparticipants.
Geocacherssetofftofindthecacheatthecoordinatesthattheyhavedownloadedfromthewebtoahand held GPS.
What is a cache?
Typically it is a lunch box type container holding a log book, pen and maybe some swappable items.
Geocachers write a log in the book about their search, they may swap something they have for something in the box and replace the container exactly as they found it.

It’s great weather to get active, but don’t forget to protect yourself from the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays.
The peak sun protection season in Victoria is from September to the end of April. To check the daily protection times go to sunsmart.com.au or download the free SunSmart app.
Overexposure to UV rays can cause eye damage, sunburn, premature ageing, and skin damage that can lead to skin cancer. In Australia, sunburn can occur in as little as 11 minutes on a fine summer’s day.
Protect your skin using a combination of these five easy steps:
Slip on sun-protective clothing that covers as much skin as possible
Slop on SPF30 or higher broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen 20 minutes before you head outside. Make sure you reapply every two hours.
Slap on a broad-brimmed hat that shades the face, neck and ears.
Seek shade, especially during the middle of the day when UV levels are highest
Slide on wrap-around sunglasses - labelled AS 1067
For more information, visit sunsmart.com.au or call Cancer Council Victoria on 13 11 20.
