The response from the public was excellent: around 236 people attended the Canneto Park to experience these water sports with a strong recreational attraction.

But that wasn't the only novelty. This year, in fact, the people of Brescia were able to benefit from two new spaces: these are the “Margherita Bravi” park in via Torricella di Sotto, where Pilates was practiced by almost 300 people, and the Viridarium in Santa Giulia, where over 500 people practiced Tai Chi. The courses were managed by the Associazione Sportiva Dilettantistica Liberavventura and Uisp Brescia.

“The value of this initiative is not exclusively of a sporting nature”, stated the Councilor for Participation Valter Muchetti.

“Physical activity in city green spaces, in fact, is not only good for health but allows people to make new friends and socialise: it is therefore a very valid tool for making neighborhoods more lively, more participatory and safer. Because of this, in the coming years, we want to do even more, expanding the Sport al Parco schedule: a now consolidated summer event which, in recent years, has increasingly received the consent of our fellow citizens".
