Welcome to the 2011 Haldimand County Spring/Summer Community Guide. Inside you will find a wide range of activities and events for you and your family to enjoy right here at home.

For the first time this year’s Guide has been produced in-house, and my congratulations go out to staff in the Community Development & Partnerships and Economic Development & Tourism Divisions for maximizing County resources in producing this publication. In the new, larger format, we have been able to include not only listings of our

programs, but also many of the community resources available in Haldimand County – making the Guide an even more valuable source of local information.

As you read through, you will see that we have expanded our summer camp programming to include more locations with more exciting themes to keep children active and engaged. We also continue to develop our excellent aquatics programming. In 2010, our lifesaving program was in the top ten for Ontario municipalities (with a population between 10,000 and 50,000), and was the only seasonal program to make the rankings.

Congratulations to Lynda Kissner and the 2010 summer aquatics staff.

I encourage you to get out and enjoy all that Haldimand County has to offer this spring and summer. There are many different activities just waiting for you to enjoy. We have summer camp programs, trails, parks, farmers’ markets, special events and festivals. Our Spring/Summer Community Guide has all the information needed to make this season enjoyable for you and your family.

If you have any suggestions or comments with respect to this Guide or our services, please contact me at 905-318-5932, ext. 220 or at [email protected].

Sincerely,

Donald G. Boyle

On behalf of Haldimand County Council, I encourage you to browse through and take advantage of the fantastic programs offered in our 2011 Spring/Summer Community Guide.

This Guide encompasses a variety of summer programs, allowing the residents of Haldimand County to get actively involved within their community. From summer camps to swimming facilities, there are fun activities offered for everyone. In addition to giving residents chances to get involved, these summer programs have created employment opportunities for 75 students in Haldimand County, allowing them to work within their neighbourhood.

Summer is right around the corner, so plan to include Haldimand County as part of your summer schedule!

Sincerely,

Ken Hewitt

Please note that dandelions and goldenrod are not categorized as noxious weeds under the Weed Control Act.

As set out in the Weed Control Act and Clean Yard By-law, the County may enter upon the said lands and have the weeds or grass destroyed/cut/cleaned-up, charging the costs against the land owner. The rate for each incident per property is the actual contracted cost for the destruction/cutting/clean-up, plus a $75 administration charge.

Children’s Fitness Tax CreditTo help offset the cost of children’s participation in sport and physical activities, the Federal Government introduced a non-refundable tax credit in which up to $500 in eligible fees for programs of physical activity may be claimed per child.

EligibilityThe Fitness Tax Credit applies to children under the age of 16 years and applies to ongoing and supervised programs in which largely all the activities include a significant amount of physical activity. Programs should last at least eight weeks of one session per week, or in the case of summer camps, programs should last at least five consecutive days and be more than 50% devoted to physical activity.

Did you know...


























Do you know that...

Haldimand County wants to ensure every child and adult has the basic skills to survive. So this summer, Haldimand County and its Aquatic Staff

will be offering the Swim to Survive Program FREE of charge!!

More than 13 million people live in Ontario – 80% of them along the shores of the Great Lakes. There

is 87 km of shoreline in Haldimand County!

Drowning is the second-leading cause of preventable death for children under 10

years of age.

57% of drowning deaths occur while participating

in aquatic activities such as swimming or boating.

About half of Canadian children never take traditional swimming lessons – even though

“swimming” is the second most popular activity (after bicycling) in Canada among school-aged

children between 5 and 12 years of age.

61% of drownings occur in lakes, ponds, rivers, streams

and waterfalls.

Of the total number of drowning deaths, 85% were amongst males and 15% were amongst females.

To reach those who don’t take traditional swimming lessons, the Lifesaving Society promotes its Swim to Survive Program, which teaches the essential skills needed to survive an unexpected fall into deep water.

What is Swim to Survive?Swim to Survive is a Lifesaving Society survival training program. The Society defines the minimum skills needed by all Canadians to survive an unexpected fall into deep water. These are expressed in a skill sequence in the Canadian Swim to Survive Standard:

ROLL into deep water - TREAD water (1 min.) - SWIM 50 m

Swim to Survive is aimed primarily at children, but people of all ages should be able to perform the Society’s Swim to Survive standard.

Basic swimming ability is a fundamental requirement in any meaningful attempt to eliminate drowning in Canada. The Lifesaving Society’s research shows that most drownings occur close to safety. They believe that if every child in Canada could pass the Swim to Survive standard, it would reduce the number of drownings by half.

Who can participate: Children ages 8 years and older and adults

When: June 21, 23, 28 & 29 ; 5:30 - 6:30 p.m.

Where: Caledonia, Dunnville and Hagersville Pools

To register for this FREE program, please call your local Haldimand County Office:

Caledonia: 905-318-5367 Cayuga: 905-318-5932 Dunnville: 905-318-3272 Hagersville: 905-318-5732

For more information, please call 905-318-3272, ext. 6114

Swim to Survive is different than swimming lessons and is not a replacement for them. Swim to Survive teaches just the essentials needed to survive an unexpected fall into deep water – an important first step to being safe around water. The Lifesaving Society strongly encourages parents to enrol their children in swimming lessons.

with a population between 10,000 and 50,000 in Ontario.Haldimand County’s Aquatics Staff was also awarded the Dougie Warren Memorial Trophy in 2010. This trophy is presented to the Lifesaving affiliate in Area 6 (Niagara Region and Haldimand County) for its efforts in providing Water Smart® education to the community.

4. Swim for Life first teaches the basics and then challenges swimmers to develop good swimming strokes for longer distances and increased fitness levels.

5. Built on the principles of success, evaluation standards set realistic, achievable goals, keeping learners happy and interested in swimming.

6. Swim for Life includes a Water Smart® Education component—hands-on fun and active teaching activities; lessons that will last a lifetime.

8. Swim for Life develops skills necessary for safe and healthy active living. A perfect fit for those who work and play on or near water.

9. Swim for Life keeps youth challenged, having fun and interested in learning more; ready to go further to learn first aid and lifesaving training through Junior Lifeguard Clubs, Canadian Swim Patrol and Bronze Medal Awards.

Admission and Supervision Standards for Public and Family SwimsPublic swimming pools in Ontario operate under legislation developed and administered by the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care. The Lifesaving Society, Canada’s lifeguarding expert, works with the Ministry in developing, reviewing and revising legislation to enhance safety for patrons using public swimming pools. The Society has been working with aquatic professionals across the province to develop a standard for admission to recreational swimming. This standard has been prepared, tested and evaluated in a variety of aquatic facilities and is in the final steps of being passed into legislation.

In the interest of providing the most enjoyable aquatic experience under the safest of conditions, Haldimand County has chosen to follow the recommendations of the Lifesaving Society and implement the following admission standard:

Admission Standard• Children under the age of six (6) years may not be admitted to the swimming pool unless they are accompanied by a parent

or guardian who is responsible for their direct supervision.• Children under the age of ten (10) years who are swimmers (able to demonstrate comfort in the water and able to pass the

facility swim test) may be admitted to the swimming pool unaccompanied.• Children under the age of ten (10) years, who are non-swimmers, must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who is

at least 12 years of age and responsible for their direct supervision. The ratio of non-swimmers to parent or guardian may be a maximum of four bathers to one parent or guardian (4:1). (The ratio of non-swimmers to parent or guardian may be increased to a maximum of eight bathers to one parent or guardian (8:1) if lifejackets/PFDs are worn by all non-swimmers in their charge.

• A guardian or group leader should be at least 12 years of age.

Direct Supervision is defined as within arms reach and able to render immediate assistance. Lifejackets/PFDs do not replace the need for direct supervision.

A limited number of lifejackets/PFDs are available at the pools. To avoid disappointment, please bring your own.

The Facility Swim test that will be administered is:

• demonstrates comfort in the water;• swims continuously two widths of the pool; and• entering the deep end, the swimmer will be asked to tread water for one minute.

Lifeguards may at any time ask for a demonstration of swimming ability if they feel there is a question of the child’s safety.

What to Wear?Proper bathing attire means bathing attire only. Sorry, no street clothes, shoes or undergarments.

Pool Fouling:• All children not toilet trained must wear an article of clothing that will keep fecal matter contained in the event of a fouling. • We suggest you use: plastic pants, Little Swimmers pool pant diapers or Gabby’s. Standard diapers are not allowed.• A pool fouling will cause a closure of our pools anywhere up to 24 hours. The Ministry of Health enforces this regulation.

Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. In the event of this occurrence, staff will advise patrons of the specific protocol.


Recreational Swim ScheduleAqua Fit – AF: An “all-exercise” workout – no swimming skills required. Conducted mainly in the shallow end.

Family Swim – FMS: A great opportunity for families to enjoy some fun time together. Children must be accompanied into the pool with an adult.

Length Swim – LS: Provides swimmers with a chance to swim lengths in the pool. Please follow proper lane etiquette. Put some kick into your day!

Public Swim – PS: Time for children and adults of all ages to come swimming.

Please note: On August 10, all pools will close at 4:00 p.m. for the day. Come out for the 11th Annual Lifeguard Competition taking place at the Caledonia Lions Pool.
