The sport must be a� liated with a member organization of Sport BC and must be a member of the Campbell River Kidsport™ organization. Grants have a cap of $200 per year, per child.

REGISTERED ICE PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONSParent & Tot Skating Lessons: Enjoy playing a variety of games on the ice with your child while you both develop your skating skills. No previous skating experience is required for the child or their parent/guardian – the emphasis of this program is fun.

**Parent & Tot Hockey Lessons: Parents and tots will get a chance to develop both their skating and hockey skills during this program. Lots of fun for all.

Dash & Splash - Swimming & Skating Lesson Combo - 2 Lessons for 1 Great Price: This program combines both activities in one trip to the facility. The � rst ½ hour is spent on the leisure ice with a skating instructor, parents then have 15 minutes to help their child get changed and head to the pool for a swimming lesson for the last ½ hour. GREAT DEAL AND TIME SAVER!!

Ice Quest - Learn To Skate Program: These lessons are designed with the beginner in mind! Our six-step program o� ers an introduction into the world of ice-skating. Please note: Preschool Ice Quest includes a snack and story time each class.

***Little Rascals Hockey: Learn basic hockey skills and play a real hockey game every class! Coaches will introduce your child to the game of hockey through a variety of fun drills. All participants must be able to skate on their own. All Little Rascal participants and their families from the 2015-2016 season are invited to the Wrap Up Party on March 17th from 6:00-7:30 PM – please register your Little Rascal at the front desk.

**Hockey 101: Is your Minor Hockey player craving “extra ice time”? This popular fast paced after school program includes all aspects of hockey. Passing, shooting, skating, stick handling and organized drills similar to those in practice will help to elevate their game to the next level. This program sells out quickly so don’t miss out. Participants must have previous hockey experience for this program.

**Women’s Intro to Hockey: The purpose of this program is to introduce women to the basic skills, to make new friends and to try the game without having to make a commitment to the entire season. Program will take place on the Leisure Ice.

Our quali� ed instructors will instruct the basic skills in a fun, creative, non-competitive and non-contact environment. Each session will include supervised instruction and plenty of game play.

Colourful Banners Brighten Campbell River!

Our mission statement: “To foster awareness and interest in all the arts within our community, and to empower, support and validate the creative efforts of local artists.”

The students of thirteen local schools were busily painting banners this year with the theme “Generating hydroelectric power on the Campbell River System.” These colourful banners were mounted around Spirit Square, along Pier Street and throughout Willow Point.

A special “Thank you!” to BC Hydro - this year’s Banner Project main sponsor. This partnership is timely due to the current John Hart Generating Station Replacement Project. BC Hydro is a Crown Corporation that has worked hard to engage the Campbell River community. Hydro has also developed a partnership with SD72 to pay for the bus costs so teachers and students can visit the John Hart site and within the public use areas.

The Banner Project is truly a community based initiative for Campbell River to be proud of! Thanks to Public Works for hanging the banners. The Arts Council would also like to extend its appreciation to all of the volunteers that assisted with the project, and a special thank you to all the artists.
