An introductory class for babies and their parent or caregiver. Babies must be able to hold their head up.The goal of this orientation-to-water class is to experience buoyancy, entries, and songs and play in the water. For toddlers or older babies with a parent or caregiver.Toddlers build confidence while enjoying the water through games, songs and active water play. A transitional level for preschoolers and their parents. Parents can gradually transfer the preschoolers to the care of the instructor, or, for children 3-5 years old who have not previously taken swimming lessons, Sea Turtle is where they will enter the program.This level develops skills in swimming, glides, and floating, and builds awareness of deep water and safe entries. Preschoolers actively learn new swimming skills including assisted floats and glides through games and songs. The fun includes learning to jump into chest-deep water. Assisted by an instructor, preschoolers work on stroke and skills progressions. Learning also focuses on good judgment in, on and around the water, and entries and floats in deep water. Preschoolers start independent glides and kicking in deep water. Endurance is built through increasing distance for front and back swims. Swimmers learn about the dolphin kick and try synchro skills in the water. In Whale, children will learn to swim independently and participate in team games. Preschoolers will increase their distance and improve skills in front and back swims. Swimmers also learn about throwing assists to help another person in the water.

Parks

update

Spring 2011

Ah, spring ... a time of rren renewal, of fresh beginnings. A time of planting and of weeds, of bare toes in the grass, and mosquitoes, of lush green foliage and annd tthe pests that damage it. In the Parks section, wee kknow how much Red Deerians love their parks, so we’d likee to offer you an update for the season.

FACILITIES

Plans and projects for 201 20111 Parks staff invite you to sit back and enjoy the city’s many outdoor spaces. In 2011, we’ll be enhancing your parks through several major projects: ectts: • • • •

Maskepetoon Phase 2 development – construction of boardwalk through a tamarack fen en Westlake wetland viewing platform and boardwalk development Completion of Oxbows off-leash dog park Further trail development, including a pedestrian bridge linking the east and west side of the city with the greater trail system

Wildlife in the parks The presence of wildlife in our city is an important indication of the health caution of our environment. Please use caut tio and common sense around wildlife, especially in the spring when anima animals ls m may have young they need to protect. Some animals, including moose, mayy ac act aggressively if they feel threatened, so keep your dogs restrained to pre prevent eve injuries or unnecessary encounters. Take shelter behind a tree or a car if a wild animal is agitated. It’s tempting to feed wildlife, especiallyy w waterfowl like ducks and geese, but it’s not good for them. It can cause ov overcrowding, ver unnatural feeding patterns, aggression, and dependency on hum humans. man Centre Visit the Kerry Wood Nature Centr re at 6300 45 Avenue for information on waterfowl and other local wildlife. A Add Additional details are also available at: Alberta Fish & Wildlife – www.srd.gov www.srd.gov.ab.ca v.ab Hinterland Who’s Who – www.hww.c www.hww.ca ca

Parks update Environmentally sensitive mosquito control trol – for our health, for the environment. To control mosquitoes, the City uses a microbial product ct called Bacillus u thuringiensis us lth Canada, aand nd we use it israelensis (Bti). This pesticide is approved for use by Health selectively to treat the aquatic larval stage of the mosquito ito life cycle before the mosquito emerges as an adult. Bti is non-toxic to other beneficial aquatic organisms such as dragonfly larvae and has no detrimental effects on birds, fish, mammals or other animals. The mosquito control program doesn’t eliminate mosquito populations – it helps reduce them to tolerable levels. It’s all part of our approach to dealing with all pest nuisances: it’s called Integrated Pest Management, and it means that we use pesticides sparingly, whether we’re dealing with mosquitoes, tree pests or weeds. We try to balance the use of chemical pesticides with other control methods, including manual removal of pests where it’s appropriate. We think it’s important for the environment, and for everyone’s health, to keep our use of pesticides to a minimum.

Weeds in Red Deer W

You may hear from us if harmful weeds are found in your area, Yo and we’ll provide you with the necessary help to deal with them. an For more information on weeds and invasive plants, visit the Fo Alberta Invasive Plant Council website at www.invasiveplants.ab.ca. Al

FACILITIES

Ma weeds look pretty, but they can choke out other plants, Many causing economic and environmental concerns on land and in ca water. When harmful weeds are identified,The City is required to wa control or eradicate them based on provincial weed legislation. co

Have you and your pet played outside today? y There are a lot of happy dogs in Red Deer – on both sides of town. In addition to the popular Three Mile Bend recreation area, the new Oxbows off-leash dog park opened in the fall of 2010, and it has been wellreceived by many wagging tails and walking families. Before you head to either off-leash park this season, be sure to plan for a safe and enjoyable outing: • • • •

Keep your dog within sight and under verbal controll at allll times. i Follow all signage requirements and avoid fenced areas. Have a leash in your possession at all times. Let your dog play, but always respect other park users and their pets.

Passionate about parks? So are we! For more information on any of the topics discussed here, please visit www.reddeer.ca/parks or contact 403-342-8234.

Parks update Get to know your trees... ...above and below ground If you have trees in your yard, you have a role to o play in keeping Red Deer’s urban forest healthy and vibrant. Understanding n nderstanding what your tree needs is the first step to enjoying your trees es for years to come. Prune appropriately. Timing is critical, and the best st times to prune are in the winter when trees are fully dormant or in the midsummer when trees are in full leaf. Avoid pruning in the spring when your tree is budding and developing leaves, as this can stress your tree. Water effectively. Newly planted trees should be watered from early spring until the leaves drop in the fall. Weekly watering is typically adequate, but remember not to over-water, as tree roots need breathing time. Older, well-established trees should be watered in the outer half of the area under the canopy; water deeply rather than frequently to fully benefit the roots.

FACILITIES

Monitor for pests and diseases. Get to know your tree species so that you can learn what diseases or insects may impact it – this will go a long way to preventing major problems. Some of the most problematic diseases are black knot and Dutch elm disease, while insect pests to watch out for include the yellow headed spruce sawfly, larch sawfly and satin moth. For further information, visit: www.treesaregood.org, www.isa-arbor.com, www.stopded.org. Get gardening with City garden plot registrations. For details, check out the ad in the Family & Community section of this guide.

Ecologically friendly yard care Think you need acres of grass and gallons of water for a beautiful yard? Think again! Naturescaping lets you create an attractive yard that saves time, money, and water. With a naturescaped yard, you’ll establish water conscious, pest resistant, and wildlife-friendly native plants.The benefits don’t stop there, as you can also implement environmentally friendly lawn care practices, which may include:

Put your mark on the parks! There are all kinds of ways to show your love for the parks: • Adopt a park • Community tree plantings • Purchase a memorial bench in memory of a loved one

•

Watering efficiently by using a rain barrel, watering in early morning or late evening, and restricting watering to 2-3 cm per week.

•

Cutting conscientiously to maintain a longer lawn height of 6-8 cm, which allows for better water retention and deeper roots.

•

Applying appropriate lawn care products, such as ecologically-sensitive and organic materials.
