The City of Sandusky’s Recreation Department is proud to announce a FREE and weekly fitness program for area residents and those visiting the city.
Pier Pressure will be a fitness meetup EVERY Saturday from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Each week participants will have the opportunity to stretch, learn light calisthenics and walk or run at their own pace along Sandusky Bay.
Participants will be introduced to three of Sandusky’s fitness centers and have the opportunity to learn more about each trainer and facility. All of the fitness centers are in the city and include Zumba with Melanie, NexXt Level Fit Academy, and CrossFit Sandusky and Tim Dorsey Fitness. The final Saturday, August 29 will be a celebration of summer.
The program is also available to visitors to the area as a way to welcome them to downtown Sandusky with a quick workout in historic Sandusky and along the many piers on Sandusky Bay. Area hotels and lodging are encouraged to invite their guests to the program.
The program is open to all ages, but participants should leave their four-pawed friends at home.
A waiver must be signed by each participant prior to the workout.

Learn more about the host city, Sandusky.
Sandusky is a city in Ohio Erie shore west and county seat of Erie County, on Ohio's north coast along Lake Erie between Cleveland and Toledo. It is perhaps best known for Cedar Point Amusement Park, home to some of the world's tallest and fastest roller coasters. It is one of Ohio's prettiest downtowns and is very clean. Walking along the waterfront in the business district should be considered very safe compared to most cities. There is a pier for those who want to fish. They say late winter fishing is great at the pier due to the fish gathering in Sandusky Bay for spawning in the local rivers and streams. Elevation: 580ft/176.8m.
