SPorT For liFe
Laying the foundation for an active life! Canadian Sport for Life (CS4L) Aurora is a local initiative that seeks to improve the quality of sport and physical activity in Aurora by increasing opportunities for sport and recreation participation. Aurora will be implementing physical literacy in sport and recreation activity which is the foundation for lifelong participation, and strengthening the community sport and recreation sector by building capacity.
DEVELOPING PHYSICAL LITERACY
Just as learning the alphabet is necessary to read, the development of basic movement skills and sport skills is critical to help children feel confident participating in physical activity. The most important step toward developing physical literacy is mastering fundamental movement skills (FMS). Physical Literacy = Competent and Confidence • Physical Literacy = Active for Life
Active Start (ages 0 - 6) Children need to be introduced to unstructured active play that incorporates a variety of body movement. Children this age experience a large variety of basic movement - like running, jumping and throwing. Look for these Active Start programs:
Learn to Train (ages 9 - 12) Children in the Learn to Train stage are ready to begin structured physical activity and sport activities. However, the emphasis should still be on general sports skills suitable to a number of activities. Try these Learn to Train programs:
Red Cross Preschool Swimming Lessons, page 15
Red Cross Swim Kids, page 18
On the Move - Gym Time, page 34
Sports Fundamentals, page 21
Jumping Jellybeans - Playtime, page 34
Friday Night Sports, page 40
Puck Power, page 34
Martial Arts, page 39
Playball - Two Can Do, page 35
Dance - Hip Hop Sensations, page 40
FUNdamentals (ages 6 - 9) Activities during this stage should be well structured, positive and FUN, and should concentrate on developing the ABCs Agility, Balance, Coordination and Speed. It is important that children take part in a wide range of sports. Try these programs: Red Cross Swim Kids, page 17 Busy Bodies, page 39 Basketball Basics, page 39 Youth running Program page, 40 Grassroots Lacrosse Clinic, page 40
Look for this symbol for activities that promote physical literacy.

Lifesaving Sport is an athletic activity that combines lifesaving and swimming. It engages and inspires youth in the Society’s humanitarian mission; provides an incentive for lifesaving, skill development and lifeguard training; encourages innovation in lifesaving and lifeguarding technique; and provides opportunities for volunteer recruitment and leadership development. The Fundamentals program offers a recreational introduction to lifesaving sport skills while teaching team building, fair play, ethics in sport and personal responsibilities. The Town of Aurora recommends this program to be in a better position after swim lessons into the Bronze Leadership courses (found on page 22). The Sports Fundamentals program is progressive, where each prior level must be completed before moving onto the next level.

SUMMER CAMP
Integration Services
The Town of Aurora welcomes and encourages all children with disabilities to participate in any of 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 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 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 special needs. There is no additional cost for a Leisure Buddy. We may request that a child with a disability be accompanied by a support staff 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, 2016. 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, 2016 deadline. Requests for an Integration staff after the deadline can be accommodated with an additional fee of $12.75/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 $12.75/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, 2016 deadline. Requests for an Integration counsellor after the deadline will only be accommodated if space and staff resources are available.
HOW DO I REGISTER? • Look through the current Parks and Recreation Program Guide, Summer Camp section for a camp that your child may be interested in. • Please contact the Community Programmer before registering to discuss your child’s needs and support requirements. Please call 905-727-3123 ext. 3121 or email jalexander@aurora.ca. • Register for your program using any of the registration methods listed on page 6. • Our Community Programmer will confirm your registration and support requirements prior to your chosen camp session. PLEASE NOTE • Final decisions regarding support options as outlined above are at the discretion of Town staff. • Participants expecting financial assistance from a third party organization (ie. PLAY) are REQUIRED to notify Town staff if they require one-to-one assistance in the summer by the March 31, 2016 deadline, regardless of when funding is confirmed. FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES For those required to pay for an Integration Counsellor, please note that your child may be eligible for funding through the Ministry of Community and Social Services’ “Special Services at Home” (SSAH) Program. Inquiries regarding SSAH can be made through the Ministry Office in Aurora at 905-868-8900. REGISTRATION
When registering your child please ensure that you include any and all details on your registration form or that you phone reception at 905-726-4770 to have your family file updated with any specific needs, medical conditions and/ or life threatening allergies. Please note that there is no way of indicating this information when using our e-PLAY online registration system.

Tennis Camp PROGRAM JUNIOR TENNIS CAMPS (Ages 6 to 13 years)
Junior Tennis Summer Camp is offered for players of all skill levels - beginner to intermediate and advanced skill levels are welcome. The camp is divided into three courts, determined by age and skill level. Campers are taught the fundamentals of the serve, ground strokes and volley in high tempo drills emphasizing balance and footwork. The coaches use balls and court sizes appropriate to the age of the group. Campers cross train (soccer, baseball, frisbee etc.) approximately 20% of each day on the sports field beside the courts. Afternoon and Full-day campers only swim one day per week. Full day campers must provide their own lunch. All campers should bring water and snacks (all food to be nut-free as program areas are NUT AWARE). Each camper receives a T-shirt and each Friday is tournament day with pizza and prizes for all. Campers are relocated to an indoor facility in the event of rain. If you have any questions, Please contact Bill Maron at bill@totaltennis.ca or (416) 565-8774.

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. At present 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, designated in 2000 as part of the regional Nokiidaa 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 Leisure Complex as well as the Aurora Community Arborteum, Sheppards 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 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 & open space areas with 35 playgrounds and over 700 acres of woodlots. Please come out and enjoy playgrounds, water splash pads, sports fields, skateboarding and a wide variety of other recreational activities in Aurora’s parkettes, neighbourhood and community parks.
park bench dedication program. Please call 905-727-3123 ext 3233 or email cwright@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 has contracted with Trugreen to provide treatment services to combat the spread of the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB). The contract will provide for the preventative application of TreeAzin, 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. Also, through the terms of the contract. residents, who wish to protect ash trees on their private property will have the option to contract with Trugreen for the same price as the Town. Property owners wishing to have their own trees treated using the Town’s contractor can contact the Parks & Recreation Department at 905 727-3123 ext. 3223 or email stienkamp@aurora.ca. AURORA ADOPT-A-PARk YOUR CHANCE TO GROw wITH THE COMMUNITY!

Did you know that the Adopt-A-Park program provides local businesses, community groups and residents with the opportunity to enhance the environment and beautify our town by assisting with the maintenance and developement of Aurora’s parks and trail systems?
