Wanganui has a very active lifestyle-oriented community. Here are few activities you could try:
1. Tennis - Wanganui has several nice tennis courts in the middle of town. You can play everyday during club days. As long as you play with a member, you don't need to pay to use the courts. So it's a free activity. However, if you are not playing with a member, you'd have to pay $10 per day.
2. Professional Clubs - there are a lot of personality improvement, business-oriented and community-focused clubs and organizations you can join. For budding entrepreneurs and business people, the Wanganui Chamber of Commerce welcomes members. For business and professional women, BPW Wanganui is available. There is also a group for young professionals. You might also find culture-centric organizations.
3. Water sports is a big thing in Wanganui. You can join sailing and rowing clubs. Wanganui is blessed with a big, meandering river and a long coastline.
4. Wanganui is also a huge center for arts. You can join handicrafts groups, painters, writers and glass arts enthusiasts.
