Summer Kids Camp Leader
Emily Popoff
Each week has a theme with activities built around the theme. Our leaders are local students who have First Aid qualifications and have diverse backgrounds in both the arts and in sports. They are young adults who love children and come back consecutive years because they too have built connections with the kids they lead. How it works... You can register by the day or for the whole week. (This day camp is at Rotary Park with the Memorial Arena available in case of bad weather.) Pre and post care is available to weekly campers and please note late fees apply. Ages 5-12 years. Children will need a healthy lunch, snacks and a water bottle.

My name is Emily Popoff and I am the returning Supervisor for the Playground Program. I started in the program 3 years ago and had two wonderful summers as a Playground Leader and then one summer as the Supervisor for the program. I am entering my final year in the UVic Teacher Education Program in September and hope to complete my Masters Degree following that in child counselling or in an education related degree. I believe in making the Playground Program a fun and engaging summer camp where children are kept busy all day long. I hope to do many exciting field trips again this year including swimming, beach days, bowling, a theatre trip and more! It’s going to be a blast and I hope to see your kids there!

Guitar Instructor
Bill Brewer
Bill is passionate about playing the acoustic guitar and singing. He brings decades of experience to teaching new players, and says he especially loves the enthusiasm of beginners. Before retiring in 2013 Bill had been hoping to have an opportunity to teach new players – now it is your turn to join him in the pleasures of learning to play and make music.
Bill recently moved to Cranbrook after retirement and is enjoying getting to know the city better. “I have always wanted to learn to play guitar but just didn’t know where to start and one on one lessons can get expensive and a bit intimidating. After only a few sessions, I felt comfortable enough to practice different chords on my own and knew I could learn to play as long as I kept up with the practicing. We learned so much for so little cost! I highly recommend Bill as he is a great teacher and knows his stuff and how to relay it in a way any beginner can understand!!” Melissa Willman

Cranbrook Farmer`s Market Growing again in 2015!
As the Cranbrook Farmer’s Market enters its seventh year of operation, the market season is growing! Due to the tremendous support from both vendors and market patrons alike, we have added another whole season of ‘locally made, baked and grown’ for 2015. In addition to our outdoor markets that are held every Saturday from the end of June until Thanksgiving, we have added a season of Indoor/Spring Markets on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the months from January to June. The idea for these indoor markets has been germinating for quite a while as a way to continue the markets that our patrons love on a more regular basis, while giving local area producers another opportunity to connect with their customers.
The first of these markets have gone very well, and the Ktunaxa Gym is proving to be a great central location. Market shoppers can find everything from freshly harvested microgreens to frozen berries and beef, eggs, sourdough breads and baked goods, to body care products, wood carvings, jewelry and hand knit/ sewn clothing items. As these indoor markets become more established, local area growers can plan to have more available in future years, as they come up with creative ideas to either extend their growing seasons, find ways to cold store their produce, or turn them into ‘value added’ products ready for sale in the ‘off season’. Thank you to all of the market patrons who help the Cranbrook Farmer’s Market continue to grow. And for those of you who haven’t come down to see what the market is all about, make a plan one Saturday soon!
Mark it on your calendar!

Meet
Lane Parnell Hi, I’m Lane! Ever since I was a child my mother had me in swimming lessons. Loving swimming so much I decided to continue my education in water safety and become a lifeguard. Being a lifeguard as well as a Water Safety Instructor has pushed me to stay on top, not only physically but mentally as well, putting the safety of the public first. For anyone looking to further their emergency response skills or looking to further their opportunity for employment, aquatic leadership training is a great place to start.

Children’s Art Tax Credit Similar to the fitness credit, a non-refundable tax credit is available for children in a prescribed program of artistic, cultural, recreational or developmental activity. The maximum tax credit is $500, which, if fully utilized, could add up to an additional $75 savings on your taxes. Full eligibility criteria can be found online at www.cra-arc.gc.ca/artscredit
Children’s Fitness Tax Credit The Children’s Fitness Tax credit is designed to promote physical fitness among children.

Eligibility is based on a number of definitions and criteria. In order to qualify, a program must be: • Either a min. of eight weeks duration with a min. of one session per week or, five consecutive days in the case of children’s camps. • Supervised and suitable for children. • All of the activities must include a significant amount of physical activity that contributes to cardio-respiratory endurance plus one or more of: muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, or balance.
