🎉💚 WE’RE BACK OPEN! 💚🎉

We’re delighted to say that Par Track is back open! 🙌

We’ve managed to get a temporary fix in place for our hot water issue, which means the café, gym, library and all our other facilities are back up and running!

🚿 Unfortunately, our showers will remain out of action until we can get the boiler replaced. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

A huge thank you to everyone for your patience and understanding over the last few days. It’s certainly been a challenging week!

☕🍰 Please pop down for something to eat or drink, or just to say hello – we’ve missed you!

We look forward to welcoming everyone back to Par Track! 💚

🚨 PAR TRACK – CLOSURE UPDATE 🚨

Following today’s boiler issues, we’re hoping to be back open from midday tomorrow (Tuesday 27th October).

Unfortunately, it looks like we’re going to need a new boiler, so we’re currently working on a temporary solution to get us back up and running while we arrange a permanent replacement.

If all goes to plan, all facilities will be open as normal from midday tomorrow, with the exception of the showers, which will remain out of use until further notice.

We’re doing everything we can to minimise disruption and get things back to normal as quickly as possible.

Please keep an eye on our page for confirmation of reopening.

We’re really sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding. 💚

🚨 TEMPORARY CLOSURE – PAR TRACK 🚨

Unfortunately, due to an issue with our boiler, we currently have no hot water in the pavilion and are therefore unable to open.

We are urgently trying to find a commercial gas engineer to resolve the issue and hope to be back open as soon as possible.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience and understanding.

We will keep everyone updated and let you know as soon as we are able to reopen.

Thank you for your understanding.

The Par Track Team 💚

⚠️ CLASS CANCELLATIONS – MONDAY 26TH TO WEDNESDAY 28TH OCTOBER ⚠️

Unfortunately, due to staff illness, we have had to make the difficult decision to cancel our fitness classes scheduled for Monday through to Wednesday this week.

With it being half term, we have been unable to arrange suitable instructor cover at short notice.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and disappointment this may cause.

We know how important our classes are to those who regularly attend, and we will be reviewing how we organise and deliver our class programme moving forward. Our aim is to improve cover arrangements and reduce the impact of staff illness on our members.

Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support. 💙

💚 WE'RE BACK OPEN TODAY! ☀️🎉

Good news! Par Track is back open today, Sunday 25th October, from 9am – 2pm! 🙌

Thankfully, we came through the storms relatively unscathed, with only a small amount of tree damage across the site. Our tree surgeon was on hand on Friday to clear the damaged branches and make the site safe again. 🌳

A huge thank you to everyone for your patience and understanding over the last few days. We really appreciate your support!

☕ Whether you're popping in for a coffee, heading to the gym, enjoying the track or just getting some fresh air, we'd love to see you!

Hopefully we'll see some of you throughout the day! 💚

We’d like to thank St Austell Police for their continued support and for taking the concerns raised by our staff and users seriously.

We want to make it clear that we recognise the importance of young people having somewhere to meet and socialise, and that the majority are not deliberately causing trouble.

However, one of the biggest challenges we face is simply the number of young people congregating around the café and entrance area, particularly during the evenings. At times, groups of 25-30 young people have gathered, which can create an intimidating environment for other visitors, even when no antisocial behaviour is taking place.

Unfortunately, this is having a real impact on people feeling comfortable visiting Par Track, as well as affecting our activities and income.

We are actively working with the police, local youth workers and other partners to explore positive, longer-term solutions that support young people while ensuring Par Track remains a safe and welcoming place for everyone.

We would also like to appeal to parents and carers. If your children regularly spend their evenings at Par Track, please speak to them about the impact that large groups gathering around the café and entrance can have on other users. We would really appreciate your support in encouraging them not to congregate in these areas.

Par Track is a community facility for everyone, and we want it to remain that way. We aren’t trying to stop young people enjoying the site, but we do need to find a balance that works for the whole community.

We would also encourage anyone who witnesses antisocial behaviour to report it directly to the police.

Thank you to St Austell Police and everyone who continues to support us. 💚

PAR TRACK | We have been in contact with staff at the track about large numbers of young people congregating around the cafe area in the evenings which has caused concern for staff and users. A minority have been seen behaving in an anti social manner.

We have been conducting patrols and have spoken to young people congregating there . The majority have been good natured and amicable with us.

We understand that the track's facilities makes it a good spot for young people to socialise.

We would ask if you are a young person socialising at the track please show respect and understanding to staff and visitors.

It is a much valued spot for the community. Ourselves and staff at the track want all users to enjoy and feel safe using the facilities.

⚠️🌳 STORM UPDATE – PAR TRACK TO REMAIN CLOSED UNTIL SUNDAY 🌧️💨

Thankfully, we've come through last night's storm without sustaining too much damage across the site.

However, there are a number of hazards that still need to be dealt with, including large hanging tree branches near the football pitch by the car park and over the pathway on the far side of the site. There are also smaller branches and debris scattered across the grounds.

With a second storm forecast to hit on Saturday, we have made the decision to keep the entire site closed until Sunday morning (25th October).

🚫 This includes the café, gym, library, athletics track and wider grounds.

⚠️ We strongly urge everyone to stay away from the site during this period. Although the damage appears relatively limited, there are still hazards present, and further strong winds could make conditions dangerous.

We appreciate this is frustrating, but the safety of our staff, customers and the wider community must come first.

We will continue to monitor the situation and assess the site before reopening.

💚 Thank you for your patience and understanding. Stay safe, everyone!

⚠️🌧️ IMPORTANT NOTICE – PAR TRACK SITE CLOSURE 💨⚠️

Due to the forecast storm and amber weather warning, we have made the decision to close Par Track from 4pm this evening (Thursday 22nd October) until Saturday morning (24th October).

🚫 This closure includes:

☕ Café

💪 Gym

📚 Library

🏃 Athletics Track

🌳 Wider grounds and outdoor facilities

The safety of our staff, customers and visitors is our absolute priority, and we feel this is the most sensible decision given the forecast conditions.

⚠️ We strongly urge everyone not to access or use the site during this period. With the potential for strong winds, falling branches and flying debris, the grounds could become dangerous.

🚗 Please note that the inner car park gate will be locked at 6pm this evening.

📧 Anyone who has booked a class, gym or track session during this period will be contacted by email shortly.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, but we hope everyone understands the reasons behind our decision.

We will continue to monitor conditions and provide updates on our social media channels regarding reopening.

Please stay safe, everyone! 💚
