Do you know how Maccaud Park got its name? Irene Maccaud purchased the land and house at Thrift Avenue and Kent Street in 1935. She had been visiting White Rock from her home in Blaine for many years before. According to local lore, the small shack on the land had been used by smugglers and German nationals fleeing to the US at the outbreak of the First World War. She renovated the original shack, adding a large room to it, which she intended to be a museum. Irene sold her house and land to the city in about 1969 on the condition that she could continue living in the house and that it would be turned into a museum, and the land made a city park. She died in 1978. The house was deemed unusable by the city, so its contents were transferred to the museum and the house was torn down. Kent Street Activity Centre now resides in beautiful Maccaud Park.

White Rock Recreation and Culture
What is Jumpstart? Jumpstart Charities gives kids a sporting chance. Kids aged 4 to 18 years from families in financial need can receive funding to help with registration fees. Participating in sport helps kids develop physical and social skills. It helps build self-esteem. By helping kids get into the game, we’re equipping them with determination. And we’re giving them confidence.
Does my child qualify? Families must meet financial need criteria in order to qualify for Jumpstart funding. Jumpstart follows Revenue Canada’s Low Income Cut-offs (LICOs) which are based on a family’s size, the size of their community and the total family unit income (before tax).
Where do I apply? Jumpstart funding application forms are available online at www.whiterockcity.ca and at each of our recreation centres: White Rock Community Centre (15154 Russell Ave.) Centennial Park Leisure Centre (14600 North Bluff Rd.) Kent Street Activity Centre (1475 Kent St.)
