President’s Message
It is my pleasure to again address the members of the Riley Park Hillcrest Community
Association and those people in the community that use the centre, on behalf of the
RPHCA Board of Directors. It’s been a very productive year where we have continued to
improve the association for the benefit of all those that use the centre. We are the best
run community centre in the city and our Directors and Members should be proud.
Ken Charko,
President RPHCA
Some of the improvements you will notice this year are our new website (www.
HillcrestCommunityCentre.com) and the soon to come out RPHCA app. Hillcrest will
be the first community centre in Vancouver to develop and use an application, making it even easier to
enrol into a program at the Centre or sign up for a class. Thank you to the Board for this innovation and
to developers Patrick Kong and David Xu who have volunteered their time and expertise.
This year I am proud of the Board’s diligence in keeping the costs of programs down. This includes
minimal increases in to the senior programs and a utilization rate in the 90 percent range, all proving
what a great job our programming committee has done this year.
This is my first letter post civic election. I am pleased to see a new and well-rounded Parks Board
will be in place for the next four years. Congratulations the elected commissioners. I look forward to
addressing issues and concerns regarding the Joint Operating Agreement and finally coming up with
a document we can all be proud of. A fresh Parks Board will bring new and constructive perspectives to
our collaborations and promises positive advancements in our shared goal of a signed JOA. We will of
course keep you posted through our quarterly published messages and through our website.
Congratulations to our new Mayor Elect, Stewart Kennedy. I am pleased to have had the opportunity
to speak with Stewart last summer at the Annual Hillcrest Community Festival about our Community
Centre. Kennedy expressed his wish for a collaborative effort moving forward. We are encouraged by
the positive responsive.
I want to thank board members Ray Chang and Olga Zarudina who ran for the Vancouver Park Board
this year and did Hillcrest proud by putting forward great policy ideas. I expect to see both these board
members on the Parks Board in the years to come.
This is also a great opportunity to congratulate the recipients of the RPHCA Community Scholarship
from Winston Churchill Secondary School. Emily Chow is pursuing a bachelor of Education and Charles
Ding is using his award to begin his undergraduate studies with the intention to pursue a career in law
at UBC. Congratulations to both students for showing exemplary commitment to their studies and to
the community. A special thank you to our Vice President, Ray Chang who put in countless hours to
make this happen.
Members and non-members please let me reiterate my availability and the Board’s available to you.
Contact me at anytime through my email at President@RPHCA.ca or assistant@RPHCA.ca through the
website. I look forward to your comments and feedback.
Cheers, Ken Charko

PRESCHOOL
In person only registration starts Tuesday March 5 at 10am.
Riley Park is an inclusive centre licensed by the Provincial Government’s Community Care Facilities
Licensing Board. Our Preschool has professional, experienced and dedicated staff utilizing a wide
variety of equipment and program supplies, allowing for quality activities in a safe and secure
environment. We combine both three and four year old children in our classes. This combination
provides for a wide range of individual abilities within the preschool classroom, proven to be
beneficial for all children. Staff plan for the range of individual differences found in any group of
children.
Combining the age groups allows for peer tutoring and modeling by the four year olds who
are able and eager to demonstrate their preschool experience. We believe that a child’s social,
emotional, cognitive and physical skill can develop to their full potential in a high quality
Early Childhood Educational setting. We believe that a high quality setting includes:
• A warm, nurturing and caring staff • A rich and stimulating environment
• A predictable yet flexible daily routine • Ongoing communication between a child’s parents & our staff
