Staff Profile:Sydney

I’ve worked at JBMAC for just about a year now as a Customer Service representative, where I’ve gained valuable experience interacting with the public. This fall, I’ll be attending VIU to begin my Bachelor’s of Interior Design, which I’m incredibly excited about. In my free time, I love all things art, sewing, and sports. I have created many different clothing items, but my biggest accomplishment so far is designing and making my own graduation dress. I’ve been playing competitive fastball with Kelowna Heat for the last six years and have just finished my last year before aging out. In addition to playing, I have dedicated the last five years to coaching both ringette and fastball, where I’ve enjoyed mentoring younger athletes, and developing their skills.

Research shows that participation in sport and recreation increases a child’s chance of success in life.

Some of the criterion to apply for the Jumpstart program includes: • Eligible children are between the ages of 4 and 18 years.

• Eligible children participating in sport and recreation in West Kelowna and Peachland.

• Funding goes to individuals, not to teams.

• Up to $600 per child can be allocated per year.

• Funding should be for a sustained program that lasts a season therefore a one-week camp would not qualify.

• Funding can be provided to the same child for successive seasons, although the goal is that Jump Start continues to fund new children.

• Funding preference is to pay for registration fees with consideration to fund equipment or transportation costs on a case by case basis.

The West Kelowna chapter is made up of organizations that provide sport and recreation opportunities for children in our community including: West Kelowna Recreation and Culture, BGC Okanagan, Westbank First Nations, Kids Sport and the West Kelowna Canadian Tire store.

• Applications are not retroactive and must be submitted before the start of the season.

Canadian Tire Jumpstart has helped give more than 159,573 kids in financial need, the chance to play. Funding is based on the individual child’s financial need. The goal is to help those children who would not have been able to participate in a physical activity without the assistance of the Jumpstart program.

West Kelowna KidSport Chapter

For further details contact the City of West Kelowna Recreation and Culture Department at 778-797-8800, online at www.westkelownacity.ca/everyoneplays or contact Peachland Recreation 250-767-2547.

So ALL Kids Can Play!

KidSport™ is a community based sport-funding program that provides grants for children ages 18 and under. There are over 30 community chapters in BC and over 235 chapters across Canada. KidSport™ works to eliminate the financial barriers to sport participation, so all kids can play. In March 2011 the West Kelowna KidSport™ Chapter began awarding groups to help children and youth participate in sport programs.

For more information see the West Kelowna Recreation and Culture website at www.westkelownacity.ca/everyoneplays or call the City of West Kelowna at 778-797-8800.

Resilience is more than just an individual’s ability to cope— it also depends on access to supportive environments.

The R2 Approach highlights 52 resilience factors, divided into rugged qualities (internal traits like confidence and attitude) and resources (external supports like healthcare or community). Both are essential: inner strength alone isn’t enough without supportive environments. This approach recognizes the shared responsibility of families, schools, and communities in fostering resilience. Our programs use the R2 Approach to help youth strengthen their internal skills and connect with the resources they need to thrive, especially during times of stress or adversity.

Our Sensory Room

A safe, calming environment designed to support youth in managing stress, regulating emotions, and finding moments of peace in their day. This low-stimulation space offers gentle lighting, soothing sensory tools, and quiet corners where youth can feel grounded and secure. Whether it’s through the comfort of a cozy nook with a book, the gentle movement of a yoga ball, or the focus brought by colouring and calming games, every element is thoughtfully chosen to promote emotional regulation, self-expression, and healing. For youth navigating difficult experiences or seeking a moment of calm, the Sensory Room provides a judgment-free space to breathe, reconnect with themselves, and build resilience in a supportive setting.

Reconnect 13-18yrs

Reconnect program provides short-term services to youth including parent/teen mediation, advocacy for youth that are homeless or at-risk of homelessness, alcohol and drug referrals, one-on-one support, hygiene and contraceptive education and products. This program is free of charge. Please email gsimms@bgco.ca; or mlea@bgco.ca for services.
