The Barcaldine Fitness Centre Inc was established in 1999 thanks to a group of community volunteers and with support of the Barcaldine Regional Council. The volunteers oversee and manage the association, and Barcaldine regional Council donates the building to community.
Barcaldine was fortunate to receive donation of gym equipment from a gym that closed down, and this lead the way to continually obtain high quality, commercial grade equipment.
