Message to Our Communities

I

n 2011 the YMCAs of Cambridge & Kitchener-Waterloo grew and developed our service areas, reinforcing our position as one of Waterloo Region’s high-impact and collaborative community organizations. We have strengthened our associations to increase the number of ways people can be touched and engaged by their YMCA experience. This year saw the completion of several major infrastructure initiatives that will ensure our asset base is renewed for years to come. The Chaplin Family YMCA in Cambridge and the A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA in Kitchener both refreshed their facilities to maintain our high quality experience. New buildings at the YMCA Outdoor Centre provide spaces for more children to connect with their environment and broaden their knowledge of energy conservation. As our Smart Start wellness programs expand their reach, greater numbers of participants are building healthy, active lives. Our partnerships with the Cambridge Cardiac Care Centre, Cambridge Memorial Hospital, the Ministry of Health Promotion, and the Canadian Diabetes Association continue to grow and enable us to strengthen our impact. Many of our community based programs and services continue to evolve as we respond to opportunities to renew and expand our Settlement, Employment, and Language Assessment services. Our work in measuring the long term outcomes of YMCA program participation and its positive impact on healthy development is being recognized locally and nationally. The response to the opening of the Stork Family YMCA in fall 2011 exceeded our expectations. The support we received from our community, volunteers, and donors confirms our ability to advance the broad-based health of our region. In particular, the family involvement is over 70%, a remarkable benefit for families in West Waterloo. As we plan for the next three years, our strategic plan continues to focus on engaging our community. We believe that no matter where you experience it, community happens one person at a time. It is the commitment of the YMCA to continue to serve our rapidly changing Region by building healthy communities now and in the future. Sincerely,

Mike Dinning

Where Renewal Happens

O

ur YMCA Centres create unique spaces where people of all ages, abilities, and ethnic backgrounds can come together and find opportunities to learn, play, get active, and belong. These are places where people can share, volunteer, and help each other pursue good health for life. As our sites grow and mature with the changing needs of the communities they serve, we update and refresh them inside and out to maintain the high quality experience we have offered for well over 100 years. Thanks to financial assistance from the Government of Canada and the Government of Ontario RinC and Infrastructure Stimulus Funds, we made some exciting changes at our A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA, Chaplin Family YMCA, and YMCA Outdoor Centre at Paradise Lake. These changes will benefit both our members and the broader community. A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA Moving forward with our vision of transforming Waterloo Region into a healthier community, we built a 6,000 sq. ft. expansion on the second floor. This provided much-needed capacity for new and innovative specialized programming focusing on persons having increased health risks and challenges. An elevator to the second floor provides easy access to the addition and the refurbished track.

The new pool dehumidifier maintains a comfortable 48% humidity on the deck while using less electricity. Nothing is wasted as excess heat from the equipment is used to heat the pools. Adding an updated anti-slip coating on change room floors ensures the showers are safe for wet feet. YMCA Outdoor Centre The construction of four new cabins featuring environmentally friendly straw bale technology enables the Y to accommodate additional participants at our Outdoor Centre and at summer camps. A new program pod makes a great meeting space for visiting groups. It is also the permanent home of the energy conservation programs delivered at the Outdoor Centre. The Solarium was our flagship building at the Outdoor Centre when it was completed in 1995. Sixteen years down the road, replacing the large southfacing windows ensures it remains a shining example of passive solar energy use for years to come.

These are places where people can share, volunteer, and help each other pursue good health for life.

We were also able to add a range of energy conservation measures, including new windows, an ultraviolet purification system for the pool, and a new HVAC unit.

Replacing old lights with energy efficient T8s sustains our environmental standards.

Chaplin Family YMCA Improvements to the Chaplin Family YMCA membership centre increased our environmentally friendly standards and enhanced our safety features. Summer campers enjoy the shade of our new outdoor pavilion, reducing the risk of harm from the sun’s rays. Wellness Centre, A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA, Kitchener

Where Healthy Lifestyles Happen

I

rene’s journey with the YMCA started in 2004 when illness derailed her once active lifestyle. After receiving a pre-diabetes diagnosis in 2010 Irene joined a Canadian Diabetes Association information session at the A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA. It was there that she learned about a new program designed to help individuals with diabetes and pre-diabetes deal with their health challenges. Her positive first impressions of the Smart Start to Healthy Living Program convinced her to sign up. Irene was ready to get back on track.

Making lifestyle changes is not without its challenges, Irene Hoffman and Irene is the first to acknowledge the struggles of meeting her initial goals. Changing eating habits and getting back into exercise can be a struggle, but through encouragement and small steps these hurdles were overcome. “Having someone to be accountable to was the push that I needed,” explains Irene. She attributes her success to the warm atmosphere and respectful, knowledgeable staff and participants with whom she has built “The whole atmosphere is positive relationships, “The whole atmosphere is very friendly, everyone is so hospitable, it is like coming very friendly, everyone is so home.”

hospitable, it is like coming home.”

Since her graduation from the program, Irene has maintained her involvement by becoming a member at the A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA, and a volunteer with the Smart Start Program. Each week Irene gets the opportunity to connect with current participants and share their journey. Described as a dedicated, caring, quiet leader, Irene can relate to and has empathy for those she meets, “As a result of this program I am fitter and more energetic than ever. You can succeed too!” Irene explains that Smart Start to Healthy Living is more than a program, “It has been a catalyst for me to get back into a healthy lifestyle. I believe in this program!” We are always excited to see Irene’s engaging smile at the A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA, and we are glad that her experience can now be the catalyst for so many others starting their journey to better health. 140 people have graduated from the Smart Start to Healthy Living Program since it was launched in 2011.

Solarium, YMCA Outdoor Centre, St. Clements Health Tip:  Healthy and active resolutions can be accomplished, as long as we take the time to create goals that are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timely - S.M.A.R.T. goals.

Where Personal Growth Happens

always knew that children could impact my life as much as I could impact theirs, but I never realized how true this was until I met four little girls at the Virtual Y who stepped out of their comfort zone to do something for others. One day at the Virtual Y the self-proclaimed “four amigos” sprinted into the room bursting to talk to me. They were touched by a story on Oprah about a boy who was abused and neglected as a child. It was so moving that the girls decided they could not sit back anymore; they were driven to action. My four girls set the wheels in motion, deciding to collect money for a charity that raised awareness about child abuse. I spent the next weeks with them in program time letting four young minds bring their idea to life. “Raise your voice” became their campaign slogan, and they planned to use this call to action to convince friends, family, and schoolmates to donate what they could to the cause.

96% of parents surveyed in 2011 felt that the Virtual Y had a positive impact on their children.

97% of teachers reported that the Virtual Y helped motivate students to learn.

The girls presented their story to the teenaged Leader Corps group at the A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA. That evening four nervous girls stood before a room full of teenagers and delivered a powerful presentation. Between donations from Leader Corps, Virtual Y participants, schoolmates, friends, and family they raised $100.00 for Boost Child Abuse Prevention & Intervention. “I always knew that children

could impact my life as much

It was a blessing to see four girls grow individually as I could impact theirs…” and together while they learned about sharing, compassion, and giving of one’s time and energy for the betterment of others. Girls who had started the year quiet and bored were able to find a passion and speak out for what they believed in. It is a powerful experience I will never forget.

Where Family and Friendships Happen

P

That was until the Stork Family YMCA opened its doors in the same building as the John M. Harper Public Library.

arisa knows that staying active and making friends is important for healthy children, but it becomes difficult when family-friendly centres aren’t convenient. Recreational centres and community services were too far away, so Parisa’s children missed opportunities to form friendships and get active as a family.

“I feel comfortable leaving my kids with them and we are always welcomed when we walk into the building.”

With both a family recreational centre and a library nearby, Parisa and her children are able to exercise their bodies, minds, and spirits. At the Stork Family YMCA the children are active participants in drop-in programs and swimming lessons, and can use the library facility during the same visit. With so many familiar faces, friendships are easily formed. All of these options, close to home in one location, make it a “heaven” for Parisa. The most important impact, she believes, comes from the community atmosphere.

Photo courtesy of Communications Department

“The YMCA has the best staff I have seen,” says Parisa. “I feel comfortable leaving my kids with them and we are always welcomed when we walk into the building. My children have made friends with other kids they see now outside the YMCA, making for a stronger and friendlier community.”

Parisa Bohlouli and her children Ideen and Yashar Nasseri-Moghaddam

The Y experience affects more than the children. Parisa enjoys getting to know the volunteers when she comes to work out. The neighbours she meets at the Y have become friends, motivating each other in the gym and sharing time in the outside community. “Members, volunteers, and staff— everyone goes out of their way to make you feel comfortable.” Parisa and her children can be found several days each week at the Y, enjoying the fun factory, learning to swim, and taking part in any one of a host of Y programs which their schedule allows. For Parisa, the YMCA feels like a second home, a safe place to stay connected to her community. Parisa’s story at the Stork Family YMCA is just beginning. Like so many other Y members, her family is enjoying the benefits of becoming more active. As an organization dedicated to building healthy individuals in mind, body, and spirit, the YMCA is looking forward to watching Parisa and her family reach their potential.

The new Stork Family YMCA opened in September 2011 at 500 Fischer-Hallman Rd., Waterloo Health Tip:  Make at least half of your grain products whole grain each day.

Where Connections Happen

R

ick MacNeil and Caroline Tanswell beam and laugh when asked to describe their connection with the YMCA. It’s difficult to know where to start, but soon Rick and Caroline have you smiling with them as they recount stories of Christmas Breakfasts, morning fitness classes, and winters selling Christmas trees. As a college student in Halifax, Nova Scotia, racquetball was Rick’s athletic outlet and his first connection to the Y community. When life brought him to Kitchener-Waterloo his passion for the game made him the one to beat on the court, while membership and presidency of the Y’s Men’s Club forged numerous new friendships. Some of Caroline’s first memories at the Y were swimming lessons as a young girl, and summers spent at YMCA Camp Queen Elizabeth on Beausoleil Island. Following the birth of her second child Caroline joined aerobics classes and soon discovered a passion for fitness classes. From those early classes her involvement grew as a volunteer fitness instructor and she eventually became a Y staff member in 1983. Caroline has been involved in all facets of the Y including Fitness Supervisor, Adult Coordinator, Membership Services Coordinator, Program Executive, Marketing Director and is currently an active fitness volunteer. In 1997 Caroline took leadership of the first Light A Smile annual campaign. Rick joined the cause with little persuasion and found himself spearheading the community component of the campaign for several years. These early years focused on face to face calls to donate, and with Caroline at the helm, over $40,000 was raised in the first year. Today the Light A Smile Campaign has evolved into the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign and continues to remove barriers to participation by raising funds to support children, teens, and families who are unable to afford the full cost of participation in a YMCA program or activity. Why is the YMCA so important to Rick and Caroline? They see in the YMCA the strengths and successes of the people. “The Y belongs to the members and the community” says Caroline. “People stay because they connect to other people and volunteers.” Rick sees it as his responsibility to communicate to others what he missed out on during his youth. As a

member of the Advisory Council and Ambassador for the Y he sees the powerful impact of transitioning from a child, to youth leader and “People stay because they role model within the YMCA.

connect to other people and volunteers.”

Nowhere are these connections more evident than in Rick’s and Caroline’s own lives. The Y laid the foundation for children who were members, friends who supported one another through difficult times and celebrated one another’s successes and it is the place where they first became friends and later a couple.

After giving back for all these years, Rick and Caroline still feel like they have more to contribute to the community that has been there for them. As members of the Heritage Club, their planned gift will be directed to Membership Assistance at the A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA, ensuring that generations to come will be accepted and valued, becoming an integral part of the Y and role models for others.
