Creating a Vibrant Downtown Chilliwack Chilliwack City Council is actively pursuing a dynamic plan to transform downtown Chilliwack into an attractive, vibrant and safe neighbourhood.

As we all know, there are no fast or simple solutions to the challenges of renewing a city centre.

Careful strategy, time, patience and a strong vision are required.

Fortunately, the City of Chilliwack is making bold steps forward in the multifaceted downtown revitalization plan to encourage significant transformation.

Downtown Community Garden

Located on Yale Road, the Downtown Community Garden is entering its first full growing season.

Managed by Ruth and Naomi’s Mission the garden serves as an opportunity for clients of the Mission and seniors who live in the area and who are somewhat marginalized to meet over working their plots, plant, grow and harvest their crops with any extra bounty being given to Ruth and Naomi’s Mission kitchen.

Originally the garden contained twenty plot boxes and this year another thirty were built by the students at Mt. Cheam School. This past summer the City of Chilliwack provided some funding for a fence that would replace the old construction fence that had been in place.

5 Corners Park

The City of Chilliwack established a temporary greenspace / park and parking lot at 5 corners in April 2014. The park was established in an open space left after the demolition of old downtown buildings. The park is a beautiful urban greenspace with a tranquil feeling situated in the heart of downtown Chilliwack.

The park and parking lot have become a popular venue for outdoor leisure and community activities There are already signs of taking place on most weekends. For example, the new life and excitement Farmers Market is now located there and has seen an increase in vendors from 4 originally, to 20 in downtown. Over the the weeks that it has been held at this location. The park is the result of a partnership between the City summer, the farmers’ of Chilliwack and the Downtown BIA with the City managing all operational activities. Some of the sites market at Five Corners, amenities include a potable water spout, 220/110V power receptacles, 50 parking stalls and the site is the vibrant Party in the wheelchair accessible.

City of Chilliwack Community Profile Chilliwack Centre Of Excellence Paddling Club T: 604-703-6597 or 604-858-0877 E: ccekayak@gmail.com

www.ccekayak.com

Chilliwack Centre Of Excellence Paddling Club The CCE is a non-profit volunteer club that strives to promote personal achievement through safe and enjoyable paddling for all ages in both recreational and competitive kayaking. We paddle on flat water, whitewater, in the lake, river, pool, or ocean surf.

Our history dates back to the 70’s when a small group of national team kayak hopefuls formed a club as a way of supporting their own training up at Tamihi and Cultus Lake. They never had much money and most of what they did was free or inexpensive, but they loved to paddle! Eventually the club became the Chilliwack Centre of Excellence and we still offer many free paddles today. Membership provides you with a boat, gear, and pleasant company for Saturday morning leisure at Cultus Lake, special evening excursions under the moon or meteors, as well as daytrips to Barrowtown, Harrison River, and the Hope Slough.

For those seeking more adventure or competitive slalom action, the CCE’s Coach Jon Allen teaches beginner lessons, introductory slalom sessions, rolling practice, and park n’ play wave surfing on the Chilliwack River. Jon is already an accomplished athlete, and as a certified coach runs competitive training programs in High Performance and Athlete Development. Olympic kayaking great David Ford and Canadian Champ Jazmyne Denhollander have roots with the CCE. Our kayakers also shine in the BC Championships, Tamihi 50, Northwest Cup Series, Icebreaker, and World Cups, as well as the BC Games and the Canadian National Whitewater Championships.

Our mission is the pursuit of excellence at all levels of participation.

Come paddle with us!

Membership cost begins at $10 For more information on our club or upcoming programs, visit www.ccekayak.com Like us on Facebook!

There's a new jungle in the gym!

Join the Y Finding time to be active as a busy family can be challenging. At the Chilliwack Family YMCA, we not only provide a supportive and caring place for you and your kids, we also offer convenient programs that make it a little easier to live a healthy lifestyle. This means our memberships include free drop-in programs and activities for both kids and adults at the best times of day.

Everything at the Y is all-inclusive and includes:

• Swim lessons and drop-in programs for children, teens and adults • Active children’s programming at convenient times of day • More than 60 drop-in group fitness classes including Yoga, Cyclefit and Bootcamp • Wide variety of strength and conditioning equipment • Access to other YMCA membership centres in Canada • Reduced rates for childminding

FALL 2014 CHILLIWACK LEISURE GUIDE 45

Chilliwack Family YMCA

Aquatics

We offer a unique continuous swim lesson system. At the Y, you no longer need to scramble every season to ensure your child gets a convenient swim lesson time. We offer swim lessons on a continuous basis and once you’ve signed up and selected your spot, it’s yours to keep.

This means you do not need to register every season and you don’t have to worry about having your slot taken by someone else. You can register your child at any time and they can progress at their own pace within a group.

• We help kids jump in, have fun, learn to swim and grow their confidence.

• Our programs—from Bobbers to Stars—give your kids the skills needed for a lifetime of safe fun in the water.

• Membership makes it easy for families to be active together with recreational swimming and family swimming at convenient times.

• Membership includes all-day access to Aquafit and lane swimming.

• For those 16 and older who have their Bronze Cross, NLS or Star 6 accreditation already, we offer a course in how to become a YMCA Swim Instructor.

MEND - Mind, Exercise, Nutrition... Do It!

Trying to maintain a healthy, active lifestyle can be challenging. With school, an abundance of screen time and a busy family life, kids are spending less time being active and as a result, many are above a healthy weight.

Helping kids grow up strong and healthy is why the YMCA exists. That’s why we offer MEND, a provincially funded program that empowers children and families to become fitter and healthier.

This free and fun 10-week program supports children ages 7-13 who are above a healthy body weight to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Parents/ caregivers join their children in each session to learn about how to choose healthier foods and spend more time being physically active.

46 FALL 2014 CHILLIWACK LEISURE GUIDE

Chilliwack Family YMCA

Children

Parents with young kids are tight on time and energy. That’s why we focus on making our programs easy to fit into your schedule, while giving you the chance to exercise and recharge.

Whether you’re playing games together on Family Night, dropping in for a swim, exposing your child to new activities or each finding your own way to get fit, rest assured that you are growing together as a family at the Y. Activities for children include: • Swim Lessons • Active Play • Creative Play • Active Games • Gymnastics • Tumble Time • Freak Out Friday

Licensed Child Care

Choosing a child care provider is a big decision. You want your child to feel at home, learn, grow and have fun in an environment that is welcoming, safe and stimulating.

And most of all you want caring and supportive caregivers who understand what makes your child special.

Through both our early years and before and after school licensed programs, kids learn values and positive behaviours in a supportive environment. Children have the opportunity to be active, have fun and develop confidence. Plus, parents get the peace of mind knowing that children are active and learning while spending time with friends and positive adult role models.

We offer programs for the following ages: • Infant and toddler (0-36 months) • 3-5 year olds • Preschool • 5-12 year olds (before and after school) FALL 2014 CHILLIWACK LEISURE GUIDE 47

Chilliwack Family YMCA

Youth

Studies show that today’s youth feel alone. The Y believes it doesn’t have to be this way. That’s why we are committed to keeping youth engaged and active with opportunities to participate, learn, grow and lead.

FUNdamental Fitness

A basic class for those starting out or returning after an absence from exercise. Cardio includes brisk walking, basic choreography and cool- down mat stretch.

Youth Leadership Development

Youth Leadership Development (YLD) helps youth build self-esteem, lifelong friendships and develop strong leadership skills. Activities include team building, social events, volunteer opportunities, fundraising, Interact Club (sponsored by Rotary), special events and a youth conference weekend.

Because we are so much more than a gym You have a lot to offer the YMCA: your time, energy and ideas. As a YMCA volunteer, you might lead an exercise class, mentor young people, fundraise, produce a special event or advise on local issues.
