WELCOME MESSAGES 3 CIVIC PROPERTIES COMMINSSION CHARIMAN’S MESSAGE I am pleased on behalf of the Civic Properties Commission to present to you this guide for leisure time activities for the 2011 / 2012 Fall – Winter season. Last year saw the completion of the renovations at the Recreation Complex and the addition of the waterslide mid Fall 2010. Also included in this brochure on the back cover are the schedule and programs of the Chetwynd & District Library. I encourage all residents of Chetwynd and the surrounding area to make good use of the programs at the library and the Recreation Centre over the fall and winter months. Tim Caton, Director, Peace River Regional District Area “E” CIVIC PROPERTIES COMMISSION VICE CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE We understand what it means to each of us to be healthy and fit, and we realize that it is almost impossible to truly enjoy one’s life if we do not have both of these. We also know that to stay healthy, we need to be both physically and mentally fit. Here at the Chetwynd and District Recreation Program our goal is to provide you the opportunity to stay both healthy and fit, mentally and physically. During the past few years we have spent a considerable amount of money and effort upgrading these facilities for your enjoyment, and now we are there. We now have more opportunities for you than ever before, and we invite you to join us in a variety of programs within our facility. And, as always, we continue to look for opportunities to improve our programs. We are open to new ideas and suggestions and look forward to your input. On behalf of the District of Chetwynd, I wish you good health and fitness and wish that the Recreation Department meets your expectations in providing recreation facilities and programs.

Evan Saugstad, Mayor, District of Chetwynd

12 HEALTH & WELLNESS FITNESS TRAINER

• Why use a Fitness Trainer? Fitness training helps build and maintain healthy bones, muscles, joints, can reduce feelings of depression and anxiety, reduces stress and increases energy. It is a great way to lose weight, tone up the body and reduce unwanted fat. A well maintained exercise routine can also help reduce many health risks including diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.

• A trainer acts as a guide and consultant assisting clients in a variety of capacities to enable them to lead a healthier life. People who hire personal trainers are looking to optimize their invested time and effort and minimize their risk.

• If you are just starting out, a personal trainer will put together a well-balanced fitness program guiding you with step by step instruction, giving you the knowledge and tools to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

• If you are already exercising regularly but are not achieving the results you hoped for a fitness trainer can assess your goals and add variety to your fitness regime providing you with that much needed extra edge.

Benefits of a water workout Provides a low impact workout that will not strain the weight bearing joints or the back The working heart rate in water is lower than when training at a similar intensity on land You don’t need to know how to swim The resistance of the water ensures that the exerciser does not work beyond their ability - Even though you “sweat” during the workout, you will never feel sweaty!

TOT TIME Monday & Wednesday mornings at 10:30am, is set out especially for parents of children under the age of 5. Come spend quality time with your child and socialize with other parents. This is a non-structured swim time.
