SPRING & SUMMER HighlightsSummer CampsSo you wanna ‘Get Silly with Science’ or ‘Nuts about Nature’? We put the fun in Summer! West Shore Parks & Recreation Summer Camps offer a variety of fun-filled daily and weekly camps for little ones and big ones. Whether you are an aspiring artist, a super sports star or somewhere in between, we have a camp for you. Preschool Camps page 32-35 School Age Camps page 38-43

Play In Your NeighbourhoodThis summer be sure to check out the FREE community parks programs happening in your neighbourhood. West Shore Parks & Recreation will once again offer the Neighbourhood Nights and Roving Play Parks Programs.

Neighbourhood Nights takes place from 6:00-8:00 PM on Tuesday evenings at Glen Lake Park and Thursday evenings at Herm Williams Park. Enjoy games, activities and crafts with the whole family. Get outside, be active, and reconnect with your family and neighbours. Roving Play Parks invites kids 6-12 years old to join leaders in a different park every day of the week for this free program. From 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM enjoy outdoor games, activities, songs and crafts.

Find locations and more details on page 43.

Atlantis Strength EquipmentThe Weight Room has undergone an upgrade to replace the 16 year old strength equipment with brand new Atlantis Precision Series pieces. This Canadian manufactured product line distinguishes itself from the competition for its outstanding comfort, durability, biomechanics, and ease of use. In addition, four upright bicycles were replaced with Precor Cycles and two accessible Krank Cycles were added.

I've lived in the Westshore for 30 years now and have used Juan de Fuca facilities on and off during this time. Last year some serious health trauma occurred, but eventually I was allowed to begin pool therapy. For the past 5 months I've been going to the pool 3-5 days a week and have had the pleasure of witnessing the swimming instructors. Kody is remarkable. He is great with all kids of all ages. He is encouraging, and a mentor for the kids and provides great one on one coaching. I really enjoy listening to him teach kids, and watching him help them overcome obstacles with the greatest of ease. He celebrates their successes with joyous enthusiasm. The community is very fortunate to have such incredible swimming instructors !

LEARN TO SKATEDescribed as an early specialization sport, learning to skate is the first step in developing the next hockey player or figure skater.

Our NCCP trained instructors develop engaging lesson plans that help your child develop the necessary skills of skating. These skills will improve your child’s physical literacy and help to develop other sport specific and fundamental movement skills.

The Greater Victoria Active Communities Learn to Skate Program is a regional initiative of seven municipalities of Greater Victoria. This program is streamlined and designed so that any pre-school or school age child can have their accomplishments transferred from one center to another. This is a badge incentive program that emphasizes the importance of comprehensive feedback through a report card. Our Skate Team Leader is on the ice during all lesson times and can answer questions regarding lessons and your child’s skating progress.

From the first consultation and assessment sessions with Kristy, I could tell from her low-pressure approach that she was both listening and considering my feedback. Knowing that she is hearing me has helped build significant trust between us as Kinesiologist and client. Almost immediately after starting to guide me, Kristy identified specific pain triggers and began working with me to try and minimize those triggers. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for an adept, compassionate healthcare partner in reducing the effects of injury or chronic pain. – Alex
