Sports and recreation association · Meri-Pori

Sport, team spirit and recreation for the fire-station community

Liikettä, yhteishenkeä ja virkistystä paloaseman väelle

Our association brings the community around the Meri-Pori fire station together to stay active and spend time with one another. This website covers our activities, membership and upcoming events.

The association

Time off is part of staying well

Fire-station work depends on trust in the people beside you. The sports and recreation association carries that idea into free time: shared exercise and relaxed get-togethers strengthen team spirit and help people cope with shift work.

The association is independent. Its purpose, rules and forms of activity are set out in its own documents, which will be published here once approved for publication.
