What’s New? Our first double issue

This is the very first production of a combined spring and summer Recreation Guide. It gives the community an opportunity to look at the spring and summer programs, workshops, summer camps and special events.

Find the information you need to know all in one place! It is our hope you will hold on to the recreation guide and refer to it over the coming months for all the amazing things White Rock Recreation and Culture has to offer.

Watch for It!

As it gets closer to summer, we know that it helps to receive a reminder of upcoming programs and events. That is why both a Kids Guide highlighting summer camps and a Seniors Guide promoting additional 55+ summer excursions will be available at all White Rock Recreation and Culture facilities, White Rock Library and City Hall.

What is Jumpstart?

Jumpstart Charities gives kids a sporting chance. Kids aged 4 to 18 years from families in financial need can receive funding to help with registration fees.

Participating in sport helps kids develop physical and social skills. It helps build selfesteem. By helping kids get into the game, we’re equipping them with determination.

And we’re giving them confidence.

What Recreation and Culture summer camps are eligible?

Many City of White Rock active summer camps are eligible for Jumpstart funding.

Camps that are eligible include Brad Higgs Soccer camp, Fencing camp, Sportball camp, Tennis XL camp, Skimboarding camp, and more.

Does my child qualify for Jumpstart funding?

Families must meet financial need criteria in order to qualify for Jumpstart funding.

Jumpstart follows Revenue Canada’s Low Income Cut-offs (LICOs) which are based on a family’s size, the size of their community and the total family unit income (before tax).

Where do I apply?

Jumpstart funding application forms are available online at www.whiterockcity.ca and at each of our recreation centres.

They can be picked up from the White Rock Community Centre (15154 Russell Ave), Centennial Park Leisure Centre (14600 North Bluff Road), or the Kent Street Activity Centre (1475 Kent St).
