Matawan-Aberdeen Regional High Asks For Sponsors For Outdoor Fitness Court

MATAWAN, NJ — The Matawan-Aberdeen Regional school district is seeking community sponsors to help the district build a new outdoor fitness court in the front of Matawan Regional High School.

This will be a new outdoor fitness court. They need the sponsors by June 10, the district says.

The district was awarded a grant from the National Fitness Campaign in partnership with Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield to construct an outdoor fitness court in front of Matawan Regional High School. The grant covers a significant portion of the project, but the district is seeking community sponsors to help fund the remaining $45,000 needed to bring the project to life.

The district is seeking contributions from multiple sponsors in the range of $5,000 - $10,000 each. All funds will directly support construction and installation of the outdoor fitness court. A detailed overview of the outdoor fitness court is available here.

Any individual who wants to donate can send a check to Matawan-Aberdeen Regional School District, 1027 Rt. 34, Matawan NJ 07747 with "Fitness Center" written in the memo.

Sponsorship comes with strong visibility benefits: sponsor logos will be featured on the interior wall of the fitness court, prominently seen by users. Horizon BCBS and National Fitness Campaign logos will appear on the exterior-facing wall toward the street.

The court will be used by MRHS students during school hours and will be open to the public after school, on weekends, holidays, and throughout the summer, serving as a year-round fitness resource for the community.

“This is an exciting opportunity to promote health and wellness for both our students and the entire community,” said superintendent Nelyda Perez. “We are grateful for the support from the National Fitness Campaign and Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield and are now turning to our local businesses and community partners to help us close the gap and complete this incredible project.”

Due to project timelines, sponsor commitments are needed by June 10 to move forward with the next phase of construction. Please contact Business Administrator/Board Secretary Lindsey Case at 732-705-4016 or lcase@marsd.org if you need any additional information or are interested in sponsoring the project.
