Leisure Buddy Program The City of Port Coquitlam makes every effort to make our programs accessible and inclusive to the entire community. To ensure the safety and enjoyment of all participants and staff, we ask all parents to read the following information. Children require additional support for a variety of reasons. Program Camp leaders are responsible for the safety of the entire camp group and strive to provide positive experiences for all children. Leaders are unable to focus extended periods of time on the specific needs of one child therefore it is important to note that what may be routine and habit for some parents may present as a challenge for our instructors. Parents registering children who require additional support in any of our programs are asked to complete the Leisure Buddy request form available at any customer service desk or www.portcoquitlam.ca/access. Completed forms can be returned to any of our customer service desks or e-mailed to Ali Vrzal vrzala@portcoquitlam.ca
