A Message from your Mayor If you’re like me, each year you look forward to participating in the many tremendous winter recreation opportunities available in Delta. This 2020 Winter Leisure Guide is your source to find the activities that are right for you – whether you want to enjoy the crisp weather outdoors or stay warm inside, our programming offers something for everyone.This Leisure Guide is packed with great programs and classes; three highlights for me are: • Kathak, Classical Indian Dance (page 9) • Pickleball (page 32) • Heritage Week (page 41) These are just three great options out of many, so as you read through this Leisure Guide, I encourage you to sign up for the classes and programs that interest you most so you can learn something new and improve your personal fitness to start the new year off right.

For many, starting the new year off right means jumping in the chilly waters of Boundary Bay for the Polar Bear Swim – this year will be the 40th anniversary of this time-honoured and fun event for the heartiest in our community.

George V. Harvie Mayor

Delta Council has led great improvements in accessing programs and facilities in 2019. Through our Delta Families First initiative, we established the free Baby Daze program for new parents, advance registration for Delta residents to ensure you get access to your favourite programs, and the free Youth Admission Pass for Delta youth aged 10-18. Delta’s youth are obviously as excited about this program as we are – more than 6,200 youth have already signed up for the pass in just a few short months. We also recently established a new North Delta Recreation Centre Fitness Pass that allows you to use the weight room and fitness studio at the North Delta Recreation Centre at a reduced rate.

Whatever your fitness and activity goals are this winter, I am confident you will be able to meet them with the help of the offerings in this Leisure Guide. On behalf of Delta Council, I hope you have a wonderful holiday season and wish everyone a happy new year.

Mayor George V. Harvie

A Message from Delta’s Parks, Recreation & Culture Commission The Parks, Recreation & Culture Commission provides Delta Council and staff with policy advice and direction on the planning, development, use, operation and service delivery of all recreation and culture programs, civic buildings, properties, parks, open spaces and sports fields.

Starting in 2020, through the hard work of Delta Staff, we are looking forward to introducing Delta residents to the brand new North Delta Centre for the Arts. This state of the art facility will not only house high-quality arts programs and courses, but will also be the home for some exhilarating performances.

We look forward to showing you more of what Delta Parks, Recreation & Culture has in store for 2020.

AFFORDABLE Options Parks, Recreation & Culture Delta Parks, Recreation & Culture strives to make recreation affordable for everyone. We welcome you to a wide variety of affordable recreation opportunities and services. Learn more at Delta.ca.

Leisure Access Assistance Program Delta’s Leisure Access Assistance Program allows eligible, lowincome Delta residents (individuals or families) to access drop-in land and aquatic fitness classes, weight room sessions, public swims, open gyms, and public skating. The Leisure Access Assistance Program determines eligibility for recreation and leisure subsidy based on the family net income as defined by the Canada Revenue Agency. For more information regarding the Leisure Access Assistance Program, please contact 604-946-3298.

JumpStart Canadian Tire generously provides a fund that allows Delta children 4-18 years of age to access active-based programs and services. If you are a parent or guardian, you can apply for funding on behalf of your child/children directly through JumpStart. Visit jumpstart.canadiantire.ca for further information. Please note, you will be asked for proof of family income. The Big Play is a JumpStart and Hockey Canada Foundation initiative to support 30,000 kids to play hockey. Visit The Big Play on the JumpStart website to learn more about this program and how to apply.

KidSport Delta The KidSport Delta Fund is the charitable arm of Sport BC that provides grants of up to $500 to individual children 6-18 years of age whose families cannot afford sport registration fees and would otherwise not be able to participate in a season of sport. Applications must be received prior to or during the requested season of sport. Preference is given to athletes who are being introduced to organized sport. For more information on KidSport Delta grant applications, call 604-943-0460, email KidSportDelta@gmail.com or go to kidsportcanada.ca.

Youth Admission Pass Delta youth 10-18 years of age, or in Grades 5-12, are eligible for a free Youth Admission Pass.

To obtain the Youth Admission Pass, eligible residents must present proof of birthdate and residency. Learn more about the Youth Admission Pass at Delta.ca/FamiliesFirst.

Eric Ripplinger Memorial Fund for Swim Lessons Eric Ripplinger was born March 1988, but sadly drowned at age 2. A trust fund was set up by his parents and friends to fund swim lessons for Delta children who might not otherwise be able to take them. Complete or partial funding is available for children 6 months-12 years of age to learn how to swim in Delta Parks, Recreation & Culture lesson sets at any Delta pool. Please call 604-946-3305 or email access@delta.ca for more information. Delta thanks the Ripplinger family for their generous support.

Delta Accessibility Support Program Assistance is available for individuals who want to participate in Delta Parks, Recreation & Culture programs and require 1-on-1 support. We match suitable volunteers with the participants in registered or drop-in programs.

To get started: 1) Please contact the Programmer for People with Disabilities who will meet with you and review your needs.

2) Sign up for the program or set a schedule for drop-in options.

It takes time to match an appropriate volunteer. Two weeks notice is required when requesting a Support Volunteer.

For more information, email pwd@delta.ca or call 604-946-3288.

Delta Parks, Recreation & Culture encourages people of all ability levels to use our facilities and recognizes that some people require help to fully enjoy the amenities offered. Admission is free for a person who accompanies a patron with special needs to drop-in and registered programs.

Linda Szentes, vocalist, and her band return to Delta for a musical homage to Doris Day and Anita O’ Day - two incredibly popular and influential female singers. These women shared some similarities: they were contemporaries who started their careers singing with big bands in the 40’s; however, when the scene changed dramatically after the war, their paths diverged. Doris Day, the ‘girl next door’ with the golden voice, established herself as a singing/dancing/ acting sensation in Hollywood for more than two decades; the ‘Jezebel of Jazzz’, Anita O’Day, shattered the image of the girl singer that Doris helped to create. Anita became one of the most ‘hip’ and widely admired jazz singers in history.

Keep your eyes open! We will be asking YOU for help during Heritage Week. From family heirlooms to (very) short films, community submissions are needed to tell the story of Delta.

*Please note, while all items will be considered, we can only display a small number of them. Displays will be chosen based on theme, size and space.

Three Minute Film Festival Aspiring Filmmakers, get ready for a brand new film festival happening in Delta as a part of Heritage Week 2020.

Delta artists age 15-25 are encouraged to submit their films to be shown at the North Delta Centre for the Arts in February. The catch? Films can only be three minutes long. This year’s theme is “The Culture of Heritage: Place and Space” and can be interpreted any way you see fit in narrative, documentary or animated form. Once submitted along with the application form, it will be reviewed by a panel of judges before being shown to the public in February. All films are subject to review by a panel and may be rejected due to size and space constraint.

Submissions are due Friday, December 20. For questions and application forms, contact agrant@delta.ca.

Bringing the Past into the Future.

Delta’s indoor and outdoor aquatic facilities are great places to learn water safety, how to swim, get and stay in shape, have some fun or volunteer and work at. Delta pools are staffed by creative and fun-loving lifeguards who ensure everyone has a great time while staying active and safe in the water.

Swirl Pool Age Guidelines All children under 13 years of age may use the swirl pools when accompanied by someone 16 years or older.

Special Features Diving boards, rope drop, mat walk, inflatables, climbing wall (dependent on facility) are open when program space allows.

Pool Etiquette and Guidelines • Children under the age of 7 must be within arm’s reach someone 16 years or older at all times: 1 adult to a maximum of 3 children under the age of 7.

• Outside shoes are not allowed on the pool deck; they can track in dirt and germs, which contaminate the pool. Please go barefoot or bring in non-slip footwear when on the pool deck.

• Always remember to walk on the deck.

• Health regulations require that everyone take a cleansing shower using soap before entering the pool or swirl pool areas.

• Our family change rooms are very busy spaces.

These rooms are for people with children of the opposite gender and their caregiver, and for people with disabilities. Please ensure that you remove your belongings from these spaces when not in use.

• Diving is permitted only in the deep end of the main/sunshine pools.

• Should an injury occur when at the pool, report it to the Lifeguard staff right away.

• In an emergency, follow the directions of the Lifeguard staff.

• For health and safety, please do not go into the pool if you have an illness, head cold, open sores, bandages, or an infection from the ears and eyes.

• Our sauna rooms, steam rooms and swirl pools are all designated quiet zones. Please talk quietly.

With a little courtesy, lap swimming can work for everyone. Please: • Always swim to the right of the lane and pass on the left.

• Be aware of what is going on in your lane.

• Move graciously to a different lane if asked by a Lifeguard to do so.

• Allow a faster swimmer to pass you.

• Move to another lane that is more appropriate for your swimming speed if you are constantly being passed by other swimmers.

Buckles’ Water Safety Tip: Drownings can happen in seconds! Be aware of your surroundings!

In the winter and spring months, the water consistency changes from ice to liquid. This means that there are still water hazards around and drowning can still happen in seconds.

Be careful when going for walks or bike rides and to be vigilant in children supervision. A person can fall through ice and have a water emergency.

Some water hazards are: • Dykes • Rivers or creeks • Farmer’s pond made into a skating area • Partially frozen lakes • Bogs • Sloughs

Before stepping onto any ice surface here are some ice safety tips: • Stay off any ice surface on warm or stormy days • Check ice conditions before going on and obey all ice warning signs • Keep away from unfamiliar paths or unknown ice • Children should only play on ice under adult supervision. Children not within arm’s reach have ventured too far

Please visit Delta.ca for up-to-date facility schedules. Please note that on Statutory Holidays aquatic facilities maintain regular hours of operation and regular admission rates apply.

We encourage students who have had challenges to speak to our Aquatic Programmers to determine how they can meet requirements. Delta is committed to the development of excellence in our aquatic leaders and a second chance may be just the thing to produce a first-class leader. Candidate fees only apply. (NL, LSI and WSI)
