Spring 2016
ACCESSIBLE RECREATION FOR ALL
The City of Port Coquitlam Parks and Recreation Department has a comprehensive offering of
tot, children, adult, seniors and youth programs. We make every effort to make our programs
accessible and inclusive to the entire community.
!!!
To ensure the safet y and enjoyment of all
participants and staff we ask all parents
read the following information.
C
hildren require additional support for a variety of
reasons. Examples include, but are not limited
to, Autism, physical or mental limitations, behavioural
issues, aggression, language barriers etc. It is important
to remember our program leaders are responsible for
the entire group and cannot spend extended periods of
time focusing on the specific needs of one child. Also
important is our leaders do not deal with your child every
day, so what may be routine for some parents could be
extreme for our instructors.
It is important to choose a program appropriate for your
child. Our daycamps are active, often hectic, noisy active
programs, which go for long walks, take public transit,
interact in busy public settings and often have an everchanging schedule. This type of program, is not appropriate for children who cannot cope with the program
agenda.
Leisure Buddies assist participants with tasks like
focusing on the task at hand, re-direction, ensured
involvement, explaining, assisting and group inclusion.
Our Leisure Buddies do not provide personal care such
as changing, toileting etc, nor can they administer medications.
Parents registering children with needs in any of our
programs are required to complete the Leisure Buddy
Request form, available at any customer service desk
or online at www.portcoquitlam.ca/access. Completed
forms can be returned to any customer service desk or
emailed to popovec@portcoquitlam.ca.

!!!
•
Staff require 2 weeks’ notice to find an
appropriate volunteer
•
Support is not guaranteed; if support cannot be
found, the participant will have to withdraw or
transfer to a more appropriate program
•
Support is very limited the first week of summer
programs (July 2-6) along with Spring &
Christmas breaks
•
Participants are eligible for up to 2 weeks of support; support is based on demand and available
resources.
•
Participants are matched with a Leisure Buddy
on a first come first served basis
•
Our Leisure Buddies do not provide personal care,
such as assistance with toileting etc.
•
It is up to staff discretion whether or not a
participant can attend a program without support.
For more information on program support or Leisure
Buddies, please contact Cierra Popove, at
popovec@portcoquitlam.ca or 604-927-7974.
Port Coquitlam’s Recreation Department offers an Individual Subsidy Program for those experiencing financial
hardship. The program provides a maximum subsidy of
50% (to a maximum of $50) for registration or membership
per person per quarter.
The Parks and Recreation Department welcomes patrons
of all abilities. Should you require assistance to participate,
we admit your assistant or support person into our
programs and drop in activites for free. Personal
Assistant Subsidy applications are available
from Customer Service.

PRIVATE LESSONS
Private or semi-private instruction for preschoolers to adults. Private lessons are

our certified Water Safety Instructors. The
session is geared towards the individual’s
need and ability.
Dates and times correspond with
regular lessons.
Private
$21/30 minutes
Semi-Private $29/30 minutes
Please be advised that it is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to
register children in the correct level of our swim program. Instructors assess all
students on the first day of lessons to ensure that they have been placed correctly.
In the event that a child has not been placed correctly, s(he) may be permitted to
transfer to an alternate level, based on program availability, at the discretion of the
aquatic staff. If no spots are available in an appropriate level, the child may be
withdrawn from the program at the discretion of the aquatic staff for safety reasons.
What you should know about Swim Lesson Registration:
Not sure which level to register in?
If you’re unsure what level your child should be registered in or it has been over a
year since their last session, drop by for a FREE evaluation. One of our qualified
instructors will assess your child and recommend the appropriate Red Cross level
for enrollment.
Not Progressing?
If your child has been in the same Red Cross level for 3 lesson sets, within a 6
month period, and has not progressed to the next level, we will provide the child
with one private lesson. Alternatively, you may choose to retake the level for the
fourth time at 50% the regular cost of the program. We also offer other programs
that may be more suited to the needs of the child, including Performance Enhancers, Front Crawl Workshop and Whip Kick Workshop.
Cancelled Classes:
A minimum of 48 hours before a class starts, lessons may be cancelled where
there is insufficient registration. We will attempt to find space in the next available
class or issue a full refund.
Maximum Number of Registrations:
Program participants can only be registered for 1 swimming lesson set at a time.
You may register your child for the next lesson set only after the completion of
the lesson set they are currently registered in. Your child may be withdrawn from
a program(s) if registered in more than one lesson set per session, or if registered
in future lesson sets prior to the completion of the lesson they are currently
registered in. There is an administration fee of $5 for each individual activity
withdrawal.
Waitlists:
If the class you want is full, get on the waitlist! Classes with waitlists may replace
any classes that have been cancelled.
Combined classes:
Combined classes are being offered in an effort to provide a greater variety of class
time options to families. In order to avoid cancelling a class, we may be required to
move your child to another time in order to combine 2 classes with low enrolment.
Program fees:
Program fees cover access to Hyde Creek for participation in Swimming Lessons
only on the dates and time listed. Program fees no longer allow participants to use
the facility before, or after their lesson. Parents/guardians are welcome to watch
their children participate in their lesson; however, program fees do not include
parental/guardian use of the facility before during or after their lesson. As space
is limited in the pool area during swimming lesson times, all individuals wishing to
use the leisure pool, and hot areas may do so for a fee of $2 per visit between the
following hours: Mon-Fri 4-7pm;

AQUATICS
HYDROTHERAPY CLASSES
Port Coquitlam Physiotherapy & Sports
Injury Clinic offers advanced physiotherapy for the whole family from chronic
pain and post-surgery to sports, auto and
work-related injuries. A unique service
offered is their hydrotherapy classes held
Monday, Wednesday and Friday from
10:55am to 11:55am at Hyde Creek.
For more information, contact
604.945.6644 or visit
portcoquitlamphysio.com
Tidal Wave Aquatics is an exciting
and unique program
offered by Kidsfirst
Physio. While the
positive impact of physical exercise in the buoyancy and resistance of water
is well documented, we have added an extra plus to our program. Under the
personal supervision of Brenda Horton, B.S.R. P.T. (reg), MCPA, carefully trained
youth assistants who work directly with the children in the water offer one-on-one
ratio of assistance to each child. Each specifically prescribed pool therapy program is developed and maintained by Brenda, yet presented with the unsurpassable enthusiasm and energy of the youth.
The benefits of this combination to those involved in our pool program are
unmistakable. The unique socialization atmosphere provided develops a bond
that makes the “therapy” even more fun, appealing, and valuable to the children.
Participants must undergo a physical assessment to determine need and
appropriate physiotherapy plan prior to approval for the program. For more information about Tidal Wave Aquatics or to book an initial
assessment visit, contact Kidsfirst Physio at 604-463-7537 or email to
info@kidsfirstphysio.ca.

CORE CONDITIONING (19+ yrs)
Strengthening the 29 muscles of your
core -- comprised of your stomach, back,
hips and pelvis -- improves all functional
movement, increases balance and stability, recovers posture and reduces the risk
of falling. Without a strong core, other
muscles pick up the slack to accomplish
everyday movements, which contribute
to injuries and reduce overall functionality. Change your body by improving
your posture, building core strength and
producing long and lean muscles. You’ll
stand straighter, feel stronger and become
more flexible. Students with a high level of
physical fitness welcome.

FULL BODY STRETCH (19+ yrs)
Full Body Stretch is a great practice for
anyone who is ‘stiff’ looking to improve
flexibility, anyone looking to stretch their
muscles back out and anyone looking to
begin exploring meditation. In this class
floor poses are held for extended periods
of time with the muscles relaxed to allow
gravity time to work on the muscles, connective tissue, joints, and even the bones.
This practice can actually be therapeutic
for certain kinds of joint-pain as the long
gentle holds can allow the joints to be
worked in a safe and therapeutic manner
that is simply impossible in a more active
class. Because of the nature of the long
holds it is a great time for inner-reflection
and meditation as well as developing a
deeper awareness of both the body and
the breath.

Raw, rugged and powerful - these abstract oil on canvas paintings capture the spirit of
our West Coast environment. Druh Ireland creates paintings based on color temperature: neutral, warm, and cool - drawing inspiration from the gritty inner city as well as the
surrounding wilderness of the natural world. Her paintings are mostly large “statement”
pieces which speak to viewers on a visceral and emotional level.

BILL EDMONDS
Opening Reception: Thu, Jun 2nd, 7-9pm
The work of Bill Edmonds questions anonymity and the release of personal information. Initially while creating the work, random individuals who had indicated a common interest in art were contacted via social media, and then asked to send their image with the
intent that Bill would paint them. Time saw him become increasingly suspicious that the
photo had been sent by a Catfish. Bill employs a combination of media and techniques,
making quick sketch style renderings by applying common house paint to Plexiglas.
