RMOW 2017 SPRING/SUMMER RECREATION GUIDE

Message from the Mayor

Message from the Mayor Welcome to the Resort Municipality of Whistler’s Spring / Summer 2017 Recreation Guide, offering Whistler’s wide range of indoor and outdoor activities. Whistler may be best known for its winter activities but spring and summer activities offer just about as much excitement and variety. This year’s Recreation Guide provides just that, including popular tried and true courses as well as many new ones. In addition to our excellent community centres and the Meadow Park Sports Centre, Whistler has 31 beautiful parks, extensive trails, and the 40-kilometre Valley Trail for walking, running and biking which combined create a recreation paradise. Our municipal programs offer up activities for every age, from infant to senior, and programming at venues including Meadow Park Sports Centre, Whistler Public Library, Myrtle Philip Community School, Whistler Secondary School, Spring Creek Community School, Spruce Grove Field House, Lost Lake PassivHaus, the Whistler Youth Centre and in our parks. New this year, are two exciting running programs aimed at beginner runners and those who have been away from running for a while. Runners Boot Camp and Get Running! will help aspiring runners build strength, stability and for experienced runners, speed. For those looking strictly for stability and strength, Play Ball is a 60-minute group fitness class that uses a variety of balls, basketballs, footballs and volleyballs, to add in some play as well. This summer, preschoolers will be able to attend Camp Tiny Tyke five days a week as the program expands to include Friday programming. Camp Tiny Tyke offers preschoolers a half day of activities including nature walks, water play, baking, crafts and theme days. Families can sign up for full weeks or for specific days. For the tot crowd there are also parent and baby fitness classes, arts, sport, science, ballet and music programs. For older children, the RMOW is offering swimming, dance, cooking classes, musical theatre, and science. During summer break, there are four camps and sports programs. These run at Myrtle Philip Community School. Make sure to register your child early for programs to ensure there are enough children enrolled to allow the program to go ahead. For youth, Whistler’s Youth Centre is a great place to socialize, play pool and table tennis, or skateboard on the mini ramp. This spring, the outdoor Whistler Skate Park will reopen for its second year following an extensive expansion and improvements. In addition, young people can enjoy aquatic leadership programs, babysitting courses, and lifeguarding qualifications. The Resort Municipality of Whistler is committed to delivering a diverse and accessible recreation program at our many facilities and parks. I hope that all residents and visitors have the opportunity to Have a wonderful summer! Mayor Nancy Wilhelm-Morden

Christina Reimer, Program Leader My name is Christina and I love working with children at the preschool. I originally come from Brisbane, Australia where I worked in elementary schools before marrying a teacher and moving to Whistler. Having three children of my own, I understand the foundation that early childhood education builds in young minds. The many interesting stories I hear from the children are priceless and the glow on their faces when they are so proud of their accomplishment is beautiful. This is why I love teaching preschool!

Physical Literacy Just like reading and writing, children have to learn how to move. Goal of the Whistler Physical Literacy Initiative Every child in Whistler will have the opportunity to develop both physical literacy and games literacy. And that there will be a variety of activities for all individuals to promote lifelong physical activity and participation for life. Physical Literacy Definition Physical literacy is the motivation, confidence, physical competence, knowledge and understanding to value and take responsibility for engagement in physical activities for life. (International Physical Literacy Association, 2014) www.physicalliteracy.ca Literacy is defined as: A person’s knowledge of a particular subject or field, for example, computer literacy. Therefore, Physical Literacy is: The mastering of fundamental movements skills.

• Stage 5: Train to Compete (girls 15-21, boys 16-23) • Stage 6: Train to Win (girls 18+, boys 19+) • Stage 7: Active for Life (any age participant) The RMOW focuses on programming that develops skills and Stage 1 and 2 and then we hope that we meet everyone’s needs for Stage 7. For more information contact the Program Services Supervisor 604-935-8369 or visit the following sites www.physicalliteracy.ca www.canadiansportforlife.ca

Physically literate individuals: • Demonstrate a wide variety of basic human movements, fundamental movement skills and fundamental sports skills. • Move with poise, confidence, competence and creativity in different physical environments (on the ground, both indoor and outdoor; in the air; in and on water; on snow and ice). • Develop the motivation and ability to understand, communicate, apply and analyze different forms of movement. • Make choices that engage them in physical activity, recreation or sport activities that enhance their physical and psychological wellness, and permit them to pursue sport excellence commensurate with their ability and motivation.www.canadiansportforlife.ca Fundamental Movement Skills Mastering Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) is the most important step in developing physical literacy. FMS are basic movement skills taught through games and activities that engage children and motivate them to continue in an activity. While these basic skills are fun in nature, they also serve the purpose of teaching the essential skills required as a foundation for more complex physical activities and sports. It is important that all children develop a good base of these skills before puberty to optimize both future performance and lifelong activity. There are seven stages within the basic LTAD model: • Stage 1: Active Start (0-6 years) • Stage 2: FUNdamental (girls 6-8, boys 6-9) • Stage 3: Learn to Train (girls 8-11, boys 9-12) • Stage 4: Train to Train (girls 11-15, boys 12-16)

We will visit the beautiful lakes and parks in Whistler, play sports and games and create amazing art work. Our main mode of transportation at camp is by bike for Camp Summer Sunsations and Camp Breakout. Camp Action Adventure will also ride bikes, scooters and run bikes occasionally. We may travel by bus and we have been known to walk to our destination as well. Sometimes we travel outside of Whistler and transport the children in our 15 passenger vehicles. It will be clearly noted on the Sunsations, Breakout and Action Adventure schedules where we are going each day and if we will be travelling by bike, bus, walking or using our 15 passenger vehicle. Our youngest campers in Camp Tiny Tyke will have many outdoor adventures with most being very close to the building as this is often their first camp experience.

What to Pack Participants should bring the following items every day; a backpack, bike, helmet, a nut- free healthy lunch with two snacks, plenty of water, hat, sunscreen, good walking shoes, swim suit, towel, rain jacket and a smile. Camp Tiny Tyke children should bring everything above but do not need a bike and only one nut free snack.

Alex Laforest, Program Leader I moved to Whistler just under a year ago after finishing a Physical Education degree at Queen’s University. I hope to get into Teacher’s College to become a high school Phys Ed teacher as well as a history teacher. I would love to be able to stay in Whistler as long as possible because I love the lifestyle it offers and all the opportunities to be outdoors and active. When I’m not working at the Community Centre I can usually be found outside doing some sort of physical activity whether it be skiing in the winter or biking around in the summer. I also enjoy spending time by the water and often frequent the awesome lakes around Whistler. I have been known to do some lifeguarding at Meadow Park as well. I spent a summer season in Whistler 3 years ago and was lucky enough to work with the Kids on the Go program and could not be happier with this job opportunity. I think it is a great camp year round that allows children to have an enjoyable time while staying physically active and healthy. I love to work with kids because they are full of surprises and keep me feeling young!!

If you enjoy helping others, making a difference in peopleâ€™s lives and being around the water, then lifeguarding/swim instructing may be for you! Below is a list of the training requirements to become a certified lifeguard and swim instructor in British Columbia.

Mary Alyx Murphy, Lifeguard/Instructor Since I moved to Whistler last Fall, I have worked as a program leader, lifeguard, and swim instructor for the RMOW. Teaching swimming lessons at Meadow Park has been an amazing experience where I was able to integrate with the community and build relationships with local families. I grew up in Hamilton, ON and graduated from Brock University with degrees in Child and Youth Studies and Primary/Junior Education. Living in Whistler has been a wonderful adventure so far. I have learned new skills (snowboarding and mountain biking) and spent as much time as possible outside - hiking, camping, canoeing and exploring this beautiful province.

Swimming Lessons & Program Information Program Information Red Cross Water Safety Instructor Course: • Please see the WSI Factsheet on page 32 of this guide for program updates and revisions.

New Program Changes: • SwimKids 5: increased time from 30 to 45 minutes as whip kick is introduced in this level, and requires more time to effectively teach. Price has been increased, class maximum increased to 8. • SwimKids 9/10: decreased time from 1 hour to 45 minutes due to challenges with swimming volume. Price has also been decreased. • Weekend Lessons: higher levels begin earlier in the day than previous sets. The purpose is to allow school-age kids time to move to other activities throughout the mid-morning, and free up family space in the main pool earlier.

Swimming Lessons Waitlists: If the class that you would like to register for is full, please add your child to the waitlist. If a space opens up, we will contact you as soon as we are aware. We will also try to accommodate creating new lessons for waitlists, dependant on instructor availability, pool space and other considerations.

Lesson Evaluations: If you are unsure which lessons your child should attend, and your child is above the age of 3, any lifeguard at the MPSC may perform a swim evaluation free of charge. You must provide an adult to be in the water for evaluations of children younger than 7 years old. Regular admissions apply if you plan to spend extra time using the pool.

Programs and facility use before & after: Program participants are free to us the MPSC facility after their program classes. If nonprogram participants wish to use the recreation facility before or after swim programs, regular admission fees apply.

Parented Classes: Please be aware that only one caregiver/parent may attend a class with their child. If both parents wish to attend, we recommend parents alternate accompanying their child to each class.

DESCRIPTION

RCSK 1

Swimmers receive an orientation to water and the pool area and work on floats, glides and kicking. Swimmers build their endurance by working on the 5m front swim.

RCSK 2

RCSK 3

RCSK 4

RCSK 5

RCSK 6

RCSK 7

RCSK 8

Swimmers work on propulsion skills to move through the water and to remain at the surface. Swimmers work on the front swim (5m) and learn about deep-water activities and proper use of a Personal Flotation Device (PFD). Fitness activities include the 10m flutter kick and a 10m distance swim. This level provides an introduction to diving, and teaches swimmers how to make wise choices about where and when to swim. Endurance is achieved by building strength in the flutter kick and a 15m swim. This level introduces the front crawl (10m) and back swim with shoulder roll (15m). Swimmers work on kneeling dives, surface support (45 seconds, deep water) and developing a greater sense of self-safety by understanding their own limits. Endurance is built through a 25m swim. This level introduces the back crawl (15m), sculling skills, whip kick on the back, stride dives and treading water. Front crawl increases to 15m. An introduction to safe boating skills is also included. Endurance is developed through a 50m swim. This level refines front crawl with a focus on hand entry and breathing (25m), back crawl with a focus on arm positions and body roll (25m), and introduces elementary backstroke (15m), safety on ice, and rescue of others with throwing assists. Swimmers demonstrate the front dive and their ability to tread water in deep water for 1Â˝ minutes. Endurance is built through dolphin kick and a 75m swim. This level builds skills and endurance for the front crawl (50m), back crawl (50m) and elementary back stroke (25m) and introduces whip kick on the front. Swimmers learn about airway and breathing obstructions, reach assists and stride entry. Swimming endurance is increased to a 150m swim. This level is an introduction to breast stroke (15m) and feet-first surface dives. Swimmers learn about the dangers of open water, hypothermia, the performance of rescue breathing on children and adults, and standing shallow dives. Swimmers participate in timed treading water activities using the eggbeater skill for 3 minutes to improve their ability to remain at the surface in the event of an unexpected fall into water. Endurance is built on a 300m swim. Front crawl and back crawl distances are increased to 75m each.

RCSK 9

This level refines the front crawl (100m), back crawl (100m), elementary back stroke (50m) and breast stroke (25m), and encourages swimmers to combine different kicks for fitness (3 mins). They also work on head-first surface dives and learn about wise choices, peer influences and self-rescue from ice. Endurance is built through a 400m swim.

RCSK 10

This level is a final assessment of the strokes for technique and distance (front crawl 100m, back crawl 100m, elementary back stroke 50m, breast stroke 50m and sidestroke 25m). Swimmers learn about sun safety, rescue of others from ice, and head-first and feet-first surface dives. Endurance is built using the dolphin kick (vertical) and a 500m swim.

Meagan Simpson, Fitness Trainer/Instructor I moved to Whistler in 2015 to experience a season in the mountains skiing and snowboarding. I quickly fell in love with the place and decided to stay around a lot longer which didn’t please the family back in Sydney, Australia. At this stage of my life I couldn’t dream of living anywhere but here. I love how active the community is with so many options to stay fit and healthy. Obviously the skiing and snowboarding in the winter but during summer I found a new passion for bike riding, hiking, kayaking, stand up paddle boarding and of course Frisbee golf. This town really has so much to offer, and the community is really engaging and friendly. I love working at Meadow Park Sports Centre as a fitness instructor and trainer as it allows me to encourage others to stay active and live healthy lives. Helping others achieve their goals and gain strength and fitness to enjoy all things outdoors is an amazing feeling. And it’s so important in this town as there is so much out there to do. Furthermore it allows me to work within my field with my Masters of Exercise Physiology and major background in training athletes and rehabilitation. It’s a great place to connect with so many people around town and learn about their lives and what bought them to or keeps them in Whistler. It’s also great to relieve stress and home sickness, Which I don’t have much of living here…who would?
