COURTENAY RECREATION

Courtenay Recreation Table of Contents

There’s no question this past year has been challenging for us all due to COVID-19. It’s also been inspiring to see the kindness and resiliency of our community. This includes our dedicated staff and instructors at Courtenay Recreation, who have re- viewed and adapted every aspect of their operations to keep participants safe. This summer, resiliency will be even more important as the 5th Street Bridge Project continues. Courtenay Recreation has modified their sum - mer camps to provide options on both the east and west sides of the river. And with the proximity of our recreation facilities to the bridge, we’re reminding patrons to give your- self extra time for your commute and allow extra time for detours. Thank you for your understanding and pa- tience during this complex infrastruc- ture project.

Why is physical activity important in the early years? The early years provide a window of opportunity for developing mo- tor skills and establishing lifelong patterns. It’s also a time of rapid growth and physical, emotional and social development. Physical activity in the first five years helps your child’s brain grow and devel- op and improves their social skills. Children of all ages learn through active play. Active play can be done in a number of ways includ- ing adult-led or free play, indoors or outdoors, and in groups, pairs or alone.

Why should your child PLAY in gymnastics? By PLAYing in a foundation sport, children learn skills that prepare them to participate in almost every other sport! These fundamental body management skills are taught through movement patterns such as landings, locomo- tions, swings, springs and rotations. As children continue to learn these FUNdamentals, they develop a full range of physical abilities (endurance, strength, power & flexibility) and motor abilities (agility, balance, coordination and speed).
