Manager’s Message
                                         I am honoured to write this letter, my first as Manager of Recreation.
                                         It is a tremendous privilege to work for my hometown and I look
                                         forward to the opportunities ahead as we work together to address
                                         the recreational needs of our community and showcase the role that
                                         recreation plays in making Arnprior a great place to live.
                                         Glenn Arthur has left a tremendous legacy that will serve as a
                                         standard for myself and our recreation team to aspire to on a daily
                                         basis. I am grateful to Glenn for his guidance and support.
                                         We are coming off a wildly successful summer. Priorpalooza,
                                         Canada Day and Concerts in the Park were graced with fantastic
                                         entertainment, great crowds and tremendous weather and the
                                         Arnprior Dragon Boat Festival had its most successful year – another
                                         marquee event that puts Arnprior on the map.
                                         The Community Hall remains a busy hub offering programming for
                                         our youth such as the FunFit4Kids Program and paint classes and
                                         programming for seniors including dances classes and pickleball.
    We’re also excited for the opening of Arnprior Regional Health’s new Seniors Active Living Centre (SALC)
    this Fall. The SALC will serve as another resource in our community offering activities, programming and
    social engagement supported by the Town of Arnprior and Township on McNab/Braeside.
    Our recreation team aims to provide programs that are accessible and affordable to all our residents, but
    your feedback, suggestions and ideas are important. Watch for the recreation program survey as we look
    to you to help us shape, grow and develop our program offerings for all residents.. Feel free, at any time,
    to share your experience about our programs or any ideas you have – give me a call, send me and email or
    drop by the office at the Nick Smith Centre, the door is always open.
    We’ve recently partnered with Canadian company PerfectMind to deliver our new recreation management
    program that will offer many advancements in how we offer our services to the public including online
    registration for programming. Watch for this service to launch Spring 2019.
    The events calendar continues to feature staple events (check out all the events on Page 36), but new
    in 2019 will be The Arnprior Seniors Information and Active Living Fair. Please circle March 30 on your
    calendar and join us for this fair.
    I would like to welcome the new owners of the Arnprior Packers – the Couvrette Family. They have an
    exciting season planned that kicks off with the CCHL Showcase September 14-16, 2018 here at the Nick
    Smith Centre.
    To all our minor sports teams that are set to embark on new seasons we wish you the best of luck and safe
    travels throughout the year.
    Cheers to an exciting Fall and Winter Season!

    Graeme Ivory
    Manager of Recreation

Mayor’s Message
                                     Another summer, filled with events and activities has passed and
                                     another Term of Council will be coming to an end this December. I
                                     am grateful to have had the privilege to serve the Town of Arnprior
                                     as Mayor for the past 8 years and I am extremely proud of the
                                     accomplishments that Council and Staff have collaborated on over the
                                     past two terms of Council. The Town has strong strategic and financial
                                     plans in place, led by a dedicated Staff to help guide the Town well into
                                     the future, as Arnprior continues to grow and prosper.
                                     I encourage everyone that is eligible to vote to take part in this year’s
                                     Municipal Election. Voting online is convenient and there is assistance
                                     available for those who require it. For more information on the 2018

                                     wishes to all the candidates running for the next Term of Council. Your
willingness to step forward, to continue to help make Arnprior a wonderful place to live and work needs to
be recognized and congratulated.
Although summer is almost over, the very successful Arnprior Market is still in full swing for the month of
September. Over 30 vendors will be on hand on John Street North every Sunday from 9 am - 2 pm. Also,

As part of our enhanced Client Service mandate, Town Staff are always looking for ways to improve
communication for our Businesses, Residents and Visitors. The Town is quite excited to announce the
launch of the new Town of Arnprior App that will allow subscribers to have easy access to pertinent Town
information on their smart-phones and tablets. Look for the Arnprior App in the Google Play and Apple
Store for download this month. The Arnprior App will offer access to a number of Town services and
information such as recreation programming, garbage and recycling schedules, special events, locations
of facilities and much more. Please do ensure that you have your notifications turned on so that you can
receive real-time updates on pertinent information, including notices of service disruption or schedule
changes. See page 43 for more information.
The Town of Arnprior continues to have so much to offer. Please take the time to read the Fall/Winter

What is the Facility User Liability Insurance Program?
The Town of Arnprior receives a Master Policy issued through Frank Cowan Company covering
Facility Users. The Facility User Liability Insurance Program allows individuals and/or groups renting
a Town of Arnprior facility to extend liability insurance protection. The intention of the insurance
coverage is to protect facility users from financial exposure resulting from claims that may result
during their activity or event. The facility user liability insurance will be made available at the time of
booking. The limit of insurance coverage will be at $2 million per occurrence.
Facility Users
The requirement for user groups and individuals to carry liability insurance is specifically for those
users renting a Town facility. This program does not apply to use of Town facilities where a facility
rental fee is not applied.
Insurance Requirements
Groups and individuals responsible for a facility rental are required to produce and maintain,
throughout the duration of the Rental Agreement, proof of sufficient liability insurance coverage.
Depending on the type of activity, sport or event, users will be required to have liability insurance
coverage of a minimum liability coverage of $2 million. The program encompasses the rental of
facility space, sports fields, and rentable parkland.
The Liability Insurance Program provides the opportunity for individuals or groups renting our
facilities to either:
• Provide proof that they already have obtained liability insurance that meets the Liability Insurance
    Program requirements; or
• Be provided with liability insurance under the Facility User Liability Insurance Program

For information or assistance with facility rentals, contact a Customer Service Representative at the
Nick Smith Centre at 613-623-7301 or the Finance Branch at Town Hall at 613-623-4231. Specific
insurance inquiries regarding the Facility User Liability Insurance Program will be forwarded to the
Insurer by Town staff as the Town is not licensed to provide insurance advice.

     Greyfish Masters Swimming Program

     The Greyfish Masters is a volunteer run swim club, focused on improving stroke efficiency, speed and
     overall fitness in a friendly environment. Our members range in age from in their 20s all the way up to into
     their 70s. The range of abilities is just as large, from just starting to swim laps up to athletes competing in
     National (and even International) masters meets or Ironman triathlons.

     NCCP certified Head Coach, Shawn Moffatt, delivers workouts geared towards improving stroke technique
     and efficiency, including starts and turns of all 4 competitive strokes (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke
     and butterfly). Improving these skills is essential for those wishing to swim competitively but can also be
     beneficial for those training for triathlons or just wanting to improve their fitness. The workouts can easily
     be customized to suit individual goals. Many club members choose to compete in swim meets or triathlons
     throughout the year to display their skills. However, competing is completely optional and should not
     discourage new members from joining. For those wishing to compete in Sanctioned Masters Swim meets,
     there is a requirement to join Master Swimming Canada ($35/year).

     The club is open to anyone over the age of 18 who is interested in swimming laps and improving their
     strokes, turns and starts. Please note that this is not a learn to swim program and it is advised that
     swimmers can comfortably swim at least 2 laps of the pool without stopping.

     There is also plenty of scope for the more social swimmer, with social events throughout the year and
     breakfast after the Saturday morning swims. The yearly membership fee is for 11 months (pool closed for
     maintenance in September).

Aqua-Jogging
You may not be able to walk on water, but you can run in the pool. Aqua jogging has long been recognized
as a rehabilitation exercise for injured athletes, but it’s also a wonderful workout in its own right. Anyone

is fully appropriate for those with mobility challenges and for many who may also participate in our eXcel
Waterfit program. All participants must be comfortable going into the deep end of the pool wearing a
flotation belt. Due to the popularity of our initial Aqua-Jogging class, we’re now offering more classes.
