Welcome to the October 2015 RecreaƟon & Culture Guide As nature starts to put on her autumn show with the changing of the colours of the leaves, the air becomes crisper and winter coats make another appearance. Between enjoying Ɵme with family during Thanksgiving and celebraƟng “All Hallows’ Eve”, all signs point to the transiƟon from summer to fall.

This transiƟon brings with it a wide variety of acƟviƟes and events which can be found in this month’s RecreaƟon & Culture Guide. Spanning the arts and culture to sporƟng events there is something for everyone. You can plan your month in advance and have something to look forward to!

There are many talents in our great city. These talents are shared when people sign up for classes to learn something new, or share their own knowledge and skills with others.

Just because the weather is cooler and liƩle more damp doesn’t mean you’re stuck in the house! Enjoy perusing this month’s RecreaƟon & Culture Guide and nd some inspiraƟon for this fall.

Chris Spearman Mayor, City of Lethbridge

Soccer Soccer likely dates in Lethbridge from the 1880s. Michael Hoyland, who wrote a book called A Century of Soccer in Southern Alberta, wrote the “first known soccer games, or football as it was called, was in 1880 at Lethbridge, although the game may have arrived with the North West Mounted Police six years earlier.” While the date of 1880 is questionable (Lethbridge as a community wasn’t in existence in 1880), it suggests Lethbridge was one of the first communities in southern Alberta to play soccer.

Games were played in Galt Gardens and many people came to watch. Soccer remained very popular and there were numerous organized teams. Many of the teams were created along ethnic lines,

such as the Shamrocks and Sons of England teams.

The 1930s saw the best known of all the soccer teams to come from Lethbridge – the Lethbridge Supinas. The Supinas, established in 1932 by North Lethbridge merchant Nick Supina, played at the Adams Park on 13 Street North. They played on a field of dirt and prairie grass; however, the stands held 500 people and were regularly full.

The Supinas won the Alberta championship in 1932, 1934 and 1935.

The team was inducted into the Lethbridge Sports Hall of Fame.

Bats Did you know?

The navigational system of bats consists of a highly developed sonar or echo-location system.

Photo credit: Jessica Deacon –Rogers (HSNC)

Bats have had a long relationship with people. Bats have been characters in our stories and myths and ancient legends, often representing evil—a representation they do not deserve.

Fortunately a more understanding and appreciative view of bats emerged in recent years. Social attitudes towards these magnificent animals have improved now that we recognize:

Did You Know?

  

Bats provide environmentally-friendly insect control; Bats play a critical role in pollinating a wide range of plant species; Bats are natural elements in many ecosystems and play an important role as predators of a variety of flying insects, many of which are pests for people, crops or forests;

In Alberta, it is illegal to molest, disturb, or destroy bat hibernacula between September 1 and April 30. While bats are not protected by law in the province, they are a true indicator of environmental health and play a number of key roles in natural ecosystems. Their presence should be encouraged.



Ultrasonic sound waves produced in rapid pulses ranging from 20 to more than 500 pulses per second are bounced off objects around the bat.



Interpretation of the returning sound waves (the echo) allows the bat to determine the distance, speed, direction, texture, and size of an object.



This system of echo-location is extremely precise and individual bats have a remarkable ability to identify their own signals and avoid confusion even when surrounded by thousands of other echo-locating bats.

The aphorism "blind as a bat" has no factual basis!

Walk to School: learning through locomotion It’s October, and autumn is in full swing. The weather is cooling off, but that doesn’t mean we can’t get outside and enjoy some fresh air. October is International Walk to School Month (IWALK, 2013). As part of the Active and Safe Routes to School (ASRTS) program, IWALK is challenging students to embrace active transport and walk to school in October.

In May of this year, the Active Healthy Kids Canada revealed its report card for physical activity for children and youth.

Did they make the grade? Not even close. Canadian youth received a D grade for active transportation, and a D- for overall physical activity (Active Healthy Kids Canada, 2013). It is recommended that children and youth get 60 minutes of activity a day, and a brisk walk to school is a great way to get some of that time in.

In a recent TEDx talk in Regina, Jennifer Keesmaat, the executive director for the City of Toronto pointed out that in 1969, only 12 per cent of the population was driven to school. Today, only 12 per cent of the population walks to school.

She suggests that walking to school provides a rite of passage for children. In addition, they learn problem solving skills, learn to navigate their community and are more likely to be active throughout the day. There are also environmental benefits when children walk to school, and Walking to school allows children to become autonomous adults.

Here are some Be Fit for Life approved tips for a successful commute: • Understand the rules of the road • Form a Walking School Bus, where a group of students is led by a designated adult.

• Make the journey a little more fun and try a pedometer challenge.

For more information on your community’s “walkability”, check out the Neighbourhood walkability checklist at

Hope to see you walking this month.

Performance history shows us that the greatest work is often produced, not from happy agreement between authors, actors, directors, visual artists, musicians, choreographers, and so forth – but, rather, when these artists disagree and clash with one another. Has the once-dominant written word now become the weakest of all these vital, divergent voices? If so, what difference does it make to the future of theatre?
