RecPlex
Walking in the RecPlex
THE RECPLEX CONCOURSE IS OPEN FOR WALKING

Research continues to support walking as an excellent form
of exercise with a variety of personal benefits. These
benefits include lowering blood pressure, reducing the risk
of coronary heart disease and stroke and increasing bone
density. Health benefits can be realized with as little as
30 minutes a day of brisk walking.
The card system was implemented in 2009 to ensure better
security for the facility and its patrons.
When it is raining outside, it is dry and climate controlled in
the RecPlex. So bring a friend and enjoy. Distance charts
are posted in the concourse.

Trees for Life
Sustain those memories of a special person, whose life you
wish to commemorate, or perhaps celebrate a meaningful event such as a birth, wedding, anniversary, retirement,
graduation or special achievement. Plant a tree of your
choice and identify your gift with a celebratory plaque.
The City of Cranbrook and Cranbrook in Bloom Committee
have developed site plans for each of the following locations
to ensure that your ‘Tree for Life’ is placed in the best
possible position and is shown to its best advantage.
These “Trees for Life” locations will provide many years of
enjoyment for the donor and public alike. In future years
these locations will become ‘demonstration urban forests’.
The following sites have been chosen for their readily
available source of water, accessibility and visibility for all
to enjoy. Moir Park, Gyro Park, Cranbrook RecPlex and
Rotary Park. Memory Lane in Idlewild Park is a natural
setting and is also available but care must be provided by
the donor as there is no irrigation at this site.
The cost of the trees (including a bracelet plaque) are $535
including delivery, planting and ongoing care.
For more information call 250-489-0040, extension 246 for
Carrie or extension 251 for Diane.

SENIOR “FUN”CTIONAL
FITNESS PROGRAM
Using a variety of equipment, participate in exercises
designed to aid the aging population in improving function
and completing their daily living activities. You may choose
to swim laps, participate in the class, relax in the hot tub,

cardiovascular and muscle conditioning exercises. This is
a challenging workout for both skilled and unskilled aquatic
fitness participants.

strengthen weak muscles and improve circulation. This
class is for those seeking injury rehabilitation, arthritis joint
therapy or those wishing to improve their strength and range
of motion.
SPECIALTY AQUAFIT

choose from or combine. Some of these may include,
Awesome Abdominals – using balls to challenge balance
and stability. Finning – uses flippers and concentrates on
exercises that target muscles in the hips and thighs.
Aquatic Step - a fun and challenging program
using the Speedo steps in the pool.
