RECREATIONAL CLUB AURORA SWIM WINTER CENTRE SWIMMING LESSONFITNESS INFORMATION
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM SWIMMING LESSONS
DECK SUPERVISOR
Support your child’s learning through participation in the recreational swimming programs. Set realistic goals for your child, encouraging them to do their best. Learning to swim can be enjoyable, but like many skills, it takes time, practise and patience. It is important to remember that each swimmer advances at his/her own pace. Not completing a level the first time, or even the second time, simply means there are important skills to continue to improve upon. Success in swimming lessons comes in many different forms - learning new skills, increasing confidence, and gaining a feeling of accomplishment.
WHAT LEVEL SHOULD I REGISTER IN? Visit our pool and one of the Aquatic Staff can assist you in determining what level to register in. The Department of Parks and Recreation offers free swimming lesson assessments. Please contact the Deck Supervisor on duty to request a screening during scheduled leisure swim times.
REPEATING A LEVEL? Show your last report card to the Instructor to allow practise time on skills requiring development. To progress to the next level, all items must be completed.
LESSON START TIME Participants should go to the pool deck at the lesson start time (not earlier). You may wish to escort your child to their lesson on the first day to meet the Instructor. Please remove outdoor shoes in the shower area and pool deck.

SUMMER CAMPS
SUMMER CAMPS
Integration Services The Town of Aurora welcomes participants of all ages and abilities to join our summer camp programs. Every effort will be made for a child to participate at a level suitable to their abilities, support needs, program choice and facility access. Arrangements for assistance may be available with one of the Integration Counsellors or Leisure Buddy Volunteers. Let us help you provide a positive experience for your camper. A PARTICIPANT REQUIRES SUPPORT IF: • Extra support is required at school in the classroom. • A physical, medical, developmental and/or learning disability exists that affects the safety of the participant or that of other participants. • Extra support is needed at home for basic care such as dressing and toileting. • Participant is currently associated with a support agency or program. • There are behaviours to be managed (ie. biting, scratching, pinching, etc). SUPPORT OPTIONS 1. You may provide the one-to-one support yourself in the form of a family member, friend, trained support/social worker or nurse. 2. You may request volunteer support. Leisure Buddy Volunteers are primarily students volunteering their time, and their qualifications are minimal. Although they will participate in a training program, they may not necessarily have experience working with individuals with exceptionalities. There is no additional cost for a Leisure Buddy. The Town of Aurora may request that a child with an exceptionality be accompanied by a support staff instead of a volunteer in order to ensure the health or safety of the child or others involved in our programs. 3. You may request an Integration Counsellor. PLEASE NOTE: The deadline to request an Integration Counsellor for your child is March 31, 2018. Aurora Residents: Integration staff support is available to Aurora residents at no charge. There is no limit to the number of days your child can attend camp if you have made your request before the March 31, 2018 deadline. Requests for an Integration staff after the deadline can be accommodated with an additional fee of $14.00/hr and only if space and staff resources are available. Non-Aurora Residents: Integration staff support is available to non-residents at an additional fee of $14.00/hr. There is no limit to the number of days your child can attend camp if you have made your request before the March 31, 2018 deadline. Requests for an Integration Counsellor after the deadline will only be accommodated if space and staff resources are available. HOW DO I REGISTER? 1. Look through the current Community Services Program Guide Summer Camps section for a camp that your child may be interested in. 2. Contact our Community Programmer to discuss your registration plans and support options by phone at 905-727-3123 ext. 3121 or by email at vchristofilos@aurora.ca before registering. 3.

Community Programs
The Town of Aurora offers integration services to help meet the needs of residents of all abilities. The Town of Aurora welcomes participants of all ages and abilities to join our camp or program opportunities. In order to facilitate opportunities for persons with an exceptionality, we will work closely with the parent/guardian/caregiver to pursue the ideal camp or program collaboratively. If the participant needs additional support, we will work together to find a suitable solution through external resources, staffing or volunteers. A person requires integration services if: • They benefit from extra support in the classroom at school or at home. • A physical, medical, developmental and/or learning disability exists that affects the safety of the other participants. • Extra support is needed at home for basic care such as dressing and toileting. • The individual is currently associated with a support agency or program. • There are behaviours to be managed (ie. biting, scratching, pinching etc.). Families/Guardians/Caregivers are required to complete an “Intake Form” to help staff with any program adaptations. When considering a recreation experience, please consider the individual needs, and that the recreation integrated setting may not be suitable for all persons with disabilities. Health and Safety of participants and staff is paramount, which could result in participants being denied access to the program. How do I register for integration services? 1. Select a program/camp the individual would like to participate in from our current Community Services Program Guide. 2. Contact our Community Programmer to discuss your registration plans and support options by phone at 905-727 3123 ext. 3121 or by email at vchristofilos@aurora.ca. 3. Complete a participant “Intake Form” that is to be reviewed by the Community Programmer to determine what kind of support is required in order for the participant to be successful in the integrated, recreational setting. Example: volunteer support (Leisure Buddy), Town staff support (additional hourly costs apply) or external support (required at own cost). 4. Register for your program. 5. The Community Programmer will confirm your support requirements prior to the start of the program and camp chosen.

PARKS & TRAILS PEDESTRIAN TRAIL SYSTEM The Town of Aurora is fortunate to have an extensive pedestrian trail system which connects many of its neighbourhood parks, Town facilities and open space corridors. Presently the Town maintains approximately 57 kilometers of trails. Come out and enjoy a leisurely hike through the natural valley land setting of mixed forests, meadows and wetland habitats of the Holland River Valley Trail. This trail is Aurora’s longest trail corridor stretching from Vandorf in the south (just west of Bayview Avenue) all the way up to St. John’s Sideroad at Industrial Parkway North. The trail corridor links municipal facilities such as the Town Hall, the Senior’s Centre and the Aurora Family Leisure Complex as well as the Aurora Community Arborteum, Sheppard’s Bush and Lambert Willson Park. Another significant trail corridor is the Willow Farm, Lakeview Trail system; a trail linking parks and linear open space corridors within the forested hills of St. Andrews in Northwest Aurora. The topography is very undulating as the trail rises up to one of the highest points of elevation within Aurora. All Aurora trails are considered multi-use, with the primary focus being pedestrian hikers. Opportunities also exist for cross country skiers. The majority of our trails are compact gravel surfaces with some asphalt sections through neighbourhood and community parks. Please note that our trails are not groomed or maintained during winter months, and conditions vary widely. Surface conditions can change dramatically during the winter to create potentially hazardous hiking and skiing conditions. All users are advised to respect other trail users, to stay on designated trails and to exercise caution at all times.
COMMUNITY PARKS & SPORTS FACILITIES The town currently has over 75 parks and open space areas including 36 playgrounds encompassing over 700 acres, 3 children’s water-play splash pads, 35 soccer fields, 18 ball diamonds and a wide variety of other recreational activities. Please come out and enjoy what Aurora has to offer! We are pleased to announce a new park in Aurora. It is located at 234 Mavrinac Blvd. This park has tennis, pickleball and basketball courts, a playground, an open play-space and on-sight parking. For further information please visit www.aurora.ca/thingstodo
MEMORIAL TREE & PARK BENCH DEDICATION PROGRAM Would you like to establish “Lasting Roots” in your community? Are you looking for a unique gift idea for that special person or occasion? Perhaps you feel like making an investment in greening your community? If so, we encourage you to contact the Parks Division to find out more about the memorial tree planting and park bench dedication program. Please call 905-727-3123 ext 3233 or email ehorton@aurora.ca.
EMERALD ASH BORER The Emerald Ash Borer is an invasive insect that kills all types of healthy ash trees. The insect was discovered in Aurora in 2011. While the Emerald Ash Borer poses no risk to human health, it is a significant threat to our forests. The town currently has a vendor in place to provide treatment services to combat the spread of the Emerald Ash Borer. The contract will provide for the preventative application of a pesticide approved in Canada that has shown to protect ash trees from the EAB. Approximately 2,000 publicly-owned trees along boulevards and rights-of-way have been identified in the Town’s street tree inventory as potential candidates for treatment. Trees meeting the treatment criteria will be marked by Town staff with a small but highly-visible painted dot.
