Shoalhaven Swim Sport Fitness will be running a ‘bring a friend for free’ promotion from 18 March through to 23 March at the Bay and Bay Leisure Centre, Ulladulla Leisure Centre, Bomaderry Aquatic Centre, Shoalhaven Indoor Sports Centre and the Sussex Inlet Aquatic Centre.
The promotion will apply to a range of Aqua Lite, Aqua, Fitstart, Aqua HIIT, Aqua Circuit, Gentle Fitness, Fitstart Circuit, Pilates Fitball and Pilates sessions across the five venues.
As the name suggests, those people paying for a class are invited to bring along a friend free of charge.
