A 10-level program for children ages five to 12 years Level 1 The 10 levels allow for solid progression.

Children learn competitive and survival strokes and build their distance and speed while focusing on making safe decisions in, on and around the water. In each level, participants are evaluated based on performance criteria and progress to the next level once all of the criteria have been successfully completed.

Swimmers receive an orientation to water and the pool area and work on floats, glides and kicking. Swimmers build their endurance by working on the five metre front swim.

Level 2

Swimmers work on propulsion skills to move through the water and to remain at the surface. Swimmers work on the front swim (five metres) and learn about deep-water activities and proper use of a personal flotation device (PFD). Fitness activities include the 10 metre flutter kick and a 10 metre distance swim.

Level 3

This level provides an introduction to diving and teaches swimmers how to make wise choices about where and when to swim. Endurance is achieved by building strength in the flutter kick and a 15 metre swim.

Level 4

This level introduces the front crawl (10 metres) and back swim with shoulder roll (15 metres). Swimmers work on kneeling dives, surface support (45 seconds, deep water) and developing a greater sense of self-safety by understanding their own limits. Endurance is built through a 25 metre swim.

Level 5

This level introduces the back crawl (15 metres), sculling skills, whip kick on the back, stride dives and treading water. Front crawl increases to 15 metres. An introduction to safe boating skills is also included. Endurance is developed through a 50 metre swim.

Level 6

This level refines front crawl with a focus on hand entry and breathing (25 metres), back crawl with a focus on arm positions and body roll (25 metres), introduces elementary backstroke (15 metres), safety on ice, and rescue of others with throwing assists. Swimmers demonstrate the front dive and their ability to tread water in deep water for one and a half minutes. Endurance is built through dolphin kick and a 75 metre swim.

Level 7

This level builds skills and endurance for the front crawl (50 metres), back crawl (50 metres), elementary back stroke (25 metres) and introduces whip kick on the front. Swimmers learn about airway and breathing obstructions, reaching assists and stride entry. Swimming endurance is increased to a 150 metre swim.

Level 8

This level is an introduction to breast stroke (15 metres) and feet-first surface dives.

Swimmers learn about the dangers of open water, hypothermia, the performance of rescue breathing on children and adults and standing shallow dives. Swimmers participate in timed treading water activities using the eggbeater kick for three minutes to improve their ability to remain at the surface in the event of an unexpected fall into water. Endurance is built on a 300 metre swim. Front crawl and back crawl distances are increased to 75 metres each.

Level 9

This level reviews the front crawl (100 metres), back crawl (100 metres), elementary back stroke (50 metres), breast stroke (25 metres), and encourages swimmers to combine different kicks for fitness (three minutes). They also work on head-first surface dives and learn about wise choices, peer influences and self-rescue from ice. Endurance is built through a 400 metre swim.

Level 10

This level is a final assessment of the strokes for technique and distance (front crawl 100 metres, back crawl 100 metres, elementary back stroke 50 metres, breast stroke 50 metres and sidestroke 25 metres). Swimmers learn about sun safety, rescue of others from ice, and head-first and feet-first surface dives. Endurance is built using the dolphin kick (vertical) and a 500 metre swim.

Genesis Place Recreation Programming Our approach to quality programming is based on the following:

Physical Literacy We all know that you have to be able to walk before you can run, but did you know that you have to be able to hop before you can skip or balance before you can kick?

Our programs focus on early physical literacy skills through games and activities to promote fun and enjoyment of an active lifestyle later on in life.

It’s not about being the best; it’s about being able to participate!

The Importance of Play Some of the best childhood memories come from the freedom to PLAY! Please join in our PLAY based programs where kids get to have fun and be kids.

Whether it’s a parented program where you and your child can enjoy making new friends and playing together, or in an independent class where your child gets to explore different equipment and fun games on their own, it’s all about remembering how to PLAY!

Parented Programs These classes require active parent participation with their child.

Fantastic Feet

Ages 18 months to 3 years

What is FCSS? Airdrie Family and Community Support Services program is an 80-20 cost sharing between the Province of Alberta and the City of Airdrie.

What does it do?

Airdrie FCSS provides funding support to local volunteerbased not-for-profit agencies delivering preventive social programs in our community.

What are preventive social programs?

Preventive social programs are activities and services that use proactive, intentional and assertive strategies to help individuals, families and the community become prepared for and resistant to crisis.

Which programs are currently funded under Airdrie FCSS? The City funds several social programs that use volunteers to provide social supports to residents.

Additionally, the City funds youth leadership and mentoring programs, family resources and educational counseling programs. For a full list of currently funded programs and their contact information please visit us online at www.airdrie.ca/social_planning/.

How do community not-for-profit agencies apply for FCSS funding?

Annually, Airdrie FCSS accepts funding applications from bona fide not-for-profit agencies. For more information on applying for funding visit airdrie.ca/social_planning/.

How much does the City of Airdrie contribute into preventive social programs?

Generally, the City of Airdrie contributes more than its 20 per cent share into preventive social programs. This is because the City believes in the importance of enhancing the social well-being of residents.

Home Fire Safety Tips for the Holidays Did you know that fire-related deaths in Alberta homes doubles over the holidays when compared with the rest of the year? The Airdrie Fire Department hopes you will follow these simple safety tips to keep your friends and family fire safe this holiday season.

Candles • Never leave burning candles unattended.

• Place candles away from absolutely anything that could catch fire.

• Place candles where they will not be knocked down and put them in to sturdy holders on a stable surface, well away from drafts, curtains, children and pets.

• Snuff out all candles before leaving the room or going to sleep.

• Never put lit candles on to a tree.

Christmas trees Special fire safety precautions need to be taken when keeping a live tree in the house. A burning tree can rapidly fill a room with fire and deadly gases. Visit http://fire.nist.gov/tree_fire.htm to see a video of how quickly a dry tree can burn.

• Get a freshly cut tree. It will stay green longer and be less of a fire hazard. Try to pick a tree with a strong green colour and a noticeable fragrance.

• Always test for freshness before buying. A tree with high moisture content is safer. Very few needles should fall when the butt of the tree is tapped on the ground; needles should bend, not break; and the trunk should be sticky to the touch with resin.

• Place the tree in a stand that will hold two to three litres of water and top it up daily. Check the water level daily to ensure that the tree is always immersed

in water. If the water level drops below the trunk, the stem may reseal itself, requiring a fresh cut.

• Use a tree stand that has widespread legs for better balance.

• Place your tree away from heat sources such as a fireplace, television, a sunny window or heat vent.

The heat will dry out the tree causing it to be more easily ignited by heat, flame or sparks.

• The tree should not block doors or windows.

• When the tree becomes dry, discard it promptly.

The best way to dispose of your tree is by taking it to a recycling center or having it hauled away by a community pick-up service.

• Consider an artificial tree (they are much safer and cleaner). If you are using a metallic or artificial tree, make sure it is flame retardant.

Decorations • Choose decorations that are flameretardant, non-combustible and non-conductive.

• If there are young children or pets in your home, avoid very small decorations.

• Do not use metallic ornaments on the tree. If they make contact with defective wiring they could become a shock hazard.

• Recycle wrapping paper and never put wrapping paper in a fireplace.

Assessment & Taxation Attention owners of newly constructed homes Supplementary assessment & tax Your annual assessment notice reflects the physical condition of your property as of December 31 of the previous year. If construction is completed after December 31, you will receive a supplementary assessment and taxation notice to reflect the increased value of the property.

A supplementary assessment and taxation notice will be mailed to you if your property: • is newly constructed and was completed or occupied during the current year, or • has had significant improvements or additions.

When is the supplementary assessment and taxation notice sent out?

Notices are sent out in July and October.

If your home was completed between January 1, 2014 and July 15, 2014, you will receive a supplementary assessment and taxation notice. The notice will be mailed on July 28 and payment is due by August 29, 2014.

If you haven’t received your notice by August 11 contact Taxation at 403.948.8856.

If your home is completed between July 16, 2014 and October 15, 2014, you will receive a supplementary assessment and taxation notice. The notice will be mailed October 31 and payment is due by December 1, 2014.

If you haven’t received your notice by November 10, 2014, contact Taxation at 403.948.8856.

How are supplementary taxes determined?

Your property taxes are determined by prorating the supplementary assessment by the number of months the building has been completed and/or occupied for the year, less the original assessment and then multiplying the revised assessment by the tax rate.

Type of property: Residential single family $350,000 $150,000 $200,000

Total Assessment Less previous assessment on annual tax notice Supplementary Assessment Improvement completed and/or occupied on pro-rated supplementary assessment ($200,000 x 6/12)

July 1 $100,000

Assessments within the City of Airdrie are based on typical market values as of July 1, 2013. For assessment inquiries, visit airdrie.ca/assessment or phone 403.948.8855.

For taxation inquiries, visit airdrie.ca/taxation or phone 403.948.8856.

Small steps for a sustainable Airdrie

The small things we do add up. Although it isn’t always easy to change the way we do things, our efforts make a positive impact on our community today and for tomorrow.

The AirdrieONE Sustainability Plan, adopted by Council, outlines 10 common goals to guide our actions over the next five to 10 years as we create a more sustainable community and ensure a high quality of life for today’s citizens and those to come. Each of us has a part to play in reaching our 10 common goals by the small steps we take. Here are some ideas of ways to make small changes that make a big difference.

Use water wisely, it is our most precious resource.

• Install low flow toilets, showerheads and tap aerators in your home.

• Fix all toilet and tap leaks.

• Turn off the tap while brushing your teeth.

Save energy and money on your utility bill.

• Look for the ENERGY STAR® label when buying new appliances.

• Install a programmable thermostat to automatically adjust your home’s temperature settings when you’re sleeping or away.

• Use a power bar to turn off your electronics.

Shop wisely.

• Use your buying power to support environmentallyresponsible businesses and products.

• Shop locally whenever possible.

Move around sustainably.

• Use the bus, a carpool, your bike or your own two feet to get to work or school, rather than driving in your car alone.

• Keep a jug of water in the fridge for cold drinking water, rather than running the tap.

• Avoid unnecessary idling. If you’re stopped for more than 60 seconds – except in traffic – turn off the engine.

Reduce waste bound for the landfill.

For more sustainability information and tips visit www.airdrieone.ca

• Recycle as much as possible through Airdrie’s two recycling depots.

• Use the curbside organics program to turn organic waste into compost and reduce landfill disposal costs.

• Purchase products with less packaging when shopping.

• Try reusable shopping bags and containers, instead of disposable ones.

Curbside Organics Recycling Collection • A pick up schedule is available online at Airdrie.ca/organics.

• Remember to put your cart out on collection day even if it isn’t full.

• Have your green cart out by 7 a.m.

• Ensure there is one metre of clearance around the cart to allow the automated truck to pick up the cart safely.

• Place your green cart where you normally place your garbage (front street or back alley pick up).

• Ensure the front faces out.

Green cart care • Your cart can be stored in your garage, by your house or in a shed. Keep it in a shaded, cool spot.

• Clean the carts the same way you would clean a garbage can - rinse it periodically to wash off any debris.

Empty the water from the cart into your lawn or garden (please do not allow rinsing water to wash into the storm water system) and allow it to dry completely.

• The green cart is the property of City of Airdrie but the responsibility lies with the homeowner. The green cart remains with the home if you move.

Yard waste • Yard waste can be placed loose in your green cart or placed in a paper yard waste bag and then put in your green cart.

• Try layering your cart contents (food and yard waste) to reduce the possibility of wet organics becoming stuck in the cart.

• Place newspaper on the bottom and/or sides of your green cart to absorb liquid.

• Yard waste including leaves, grass clippings, pumpkins, plants, and brush/shrub/flower trimmings can be placed in your green cart. Similar items that do not fit in the cart can be held until your next collection day, or grass and leaves can be taken to the Eastside Recycle Depot.

• Tree stumps, roots, and branches are not accepted in the organics program and can be taken to the Airdrie Transfer Site for a fee.

We welcome all questions and comments on the organics recycling program, call 403.948.0246 or email organics@airdrie.ca

Plastic bags are the #1 contaminant in organics recycling. Never use plastic garbage bags or grocery bags for organics recycling.
