Thursday, October 2, 7:30 pm
Cam Collyer, Program Director, Evergreen
W
here do our kids play today? The same places as their
parents did as children? Do they roam freely? Are you
worried about the trends? Childhood is swiftly and
alarmingly moving indoors, supervised, sedentary and with a
strong dose of screen time – it’s an international phenomena and
a cause of great concern to the health, education and planning
fields. Research is revealing the wide range of benefits from regular
outdoor time in the natural world including increasing physical
activity, pro-social behaviour and the motivation to learn and
even mitigating attention disorders. Come and hear some inspired
examples of what communities, parents and schools are doing
in response, to create places and programs that are nurturing for
children and good for their communities. Join Cam Collyer and
Mooredale on October 2nd for an evening dedicated to discussing
all we can do to ensure our children embrace the power of nature
and all that we can accomplish as parents, grandparents and a
community to solidify their relationship with the great outdoors.

Fall 2014
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
A ‘new year’ has begun
at Mooredale!
I
hope that each of you had a lovely
and relaxing summer, wherever
your journeys may have taken you.
So much is happening right in our own
great city and Mooredale is certainly a
part of it all. Our day camp once again successfully provided
a summer of fun for our young campers, the pool club was
a hive of activity and our competitive soccer teams showed
enormous commitment throughout July and August.
With the advent of fall, exciting things abound at
Mooredale! Check out our programs: new offerings such
as Kangoo Jumps and iPhoneograhy, along with the always
popular karate, fitness and music classes and so much more.
Sunday afternoon Flag Football at Rosedale Park is a fantastic
way to get your kids outdoors and active, House League
soccer continues to bring our community together and our
nurturing and very special preschool opens its classroom
doors to our youngest members once again. Soctoberfest
returns to Lamport Stadium on October 4th for all of us adults;
if you are keen on pulling together a team (all abilities have a
place), please don’t hesitate to get a hold of Chris Keem in the
Sports office for more information. I can vouch firsthand for
an outstanding day of soccer – you’ll feel like a kid again!
As well, please consider joining us for the launch of
Mooredale Talks, our very own speaker series being held at
Mooredale House. We will kick off the series on October 2nd
with an inspiring discussion led by Cam Collyer, Programs
Director at Evergreen. Cam is an inspiring leader and speaker
in the area of nature and its positive effect on children,
both from a physical and mental perspective. He will speak
to the profound changes in the way our children play and
their relationship to nature, along with how to bring the
outdoor world to our urban children, encouraging them to
be stewards of all that naturally exists around them. Cam will
undoubtedly encourage a lively discussion and I do hope that
many of you will attend. Please see the Mooredale website
(www.mooredale.com) for further information on how to
secure a place for this great evening.
As always, I encourage each of our members to look at
their many talents and interests and consider sharing them
with our community. New ideas are always welcome here at
Mooredale and I trust that this new year at Mooredale will be
a great one!
Happy fall!

I
t’s hard to make the transition from Summer to Fall but
September makes it bearable! All summer we have enjoyed
lovely weather (with the odd thunderstorm punctuating our
afternoons). The kids and the Mooredale Staff have found great
ways to make summer memories – at the Pool, at Summer Fun,
at Day Camp, at Soccer Camp, at Tennis lessons, and during
out-trips to Kelso. Adults found time for fun too and overall the
energy and enthusiasm has remained strong all summer long.
Now we look forward to everything
that Fall will bring:
•Fabulous Fall Programs for children, youth and adults
too
•A new Speaker Series for adults and their guests
•The launch of the new Preschool year – with seamless
day links to Mooredale programs
•Our Flag Football players get ready to hit the gridiron
•The Soccer House league enjoys their final month of
play, before the big Cup Day on Sept. 27 & 28
•The Rosedale Terry Fox Run held at Mooredale on
Sunday September 14th from 8 to noon
•The latest wonderful series offered by Mooredale
Concerts and Orchestras – see the series brochure in
this newsletter
•The Hallowe’en Event for Families on October 25th
Think of your favourite ‘salsa’ that you created for some
summer feast this year. Was it hot and spicy? Did you make
one with some seasonal fresh fruit? That’s what the Board,
Committees, Staff and Instructors at Mooredale have worked
hard to create for this season. We hope you will join in the fun
and enjoy all the savouries and sweets that the season brings.
Fall 2014
Hip Hip Hooray for our
Summer staff team!
Preschool Summer Fun staff team was led by Carolyn Burgess
and, thanks to their hard work and excellent planning, the
children enjoyed every part of the program, especially the new
sunshades over the playground climber!
The Mooredale Day Camp Director, Eric Musselman,
worked with a remarkable team, including Assistant Director,
Erin Ciona, and Program Director, Jessica Procyshyn, and the
staff of 50. Thanks to each one for making magic happen for our
campers this season.
The Swimming Pool Club is a very special place indeed!
Stephanie Chu, Pool Manager, led an extremely capable group of
lifeguards and instructors to offer a program that was chock full
of lessons, lane swim, aquafit and general swim opportunities
for club members. (If you aren’t a Pool member yet, be sure to
get your name on the wait list for next year now!)
The Soccer Season used to be quieter in the summer – but
not anymore... this year, thanks to Chris Keem, Soccer & Sport
Manager, and Federico Sanmartin, Technical Director, the Select
and Competitive programs were still active. Plus, there was a
new 2 week soccer skills camp offered, which many players
enjoyed this year.
So thanks for the Summer Memories. We look forward to
making the most of Fall with you!
Marjorie Booth
EXECUTIVE DIRETOR

would like to recognize Janet Bone, Doug Deeks, Kevin Smith, Kim
Thorsteinson and John Turnbull for coaching 10 or more sports
teams.
We would like to make special mention of
Tony Miklaucic, a father of four active young

sports teams since 2008. Thank you Tony. You
are an inspiration!

Thank you to our newest
Honorary Life Member
L
ongtime volunteer Marie O’Connor was honored at the final
Mayfair Committee meeting this year with an Honorary Life
Membership in Mooredale, awarded by the Mooredale Board
of Directors. Marie is a past Chair of Mayfair and a decades-long
volunteer for Mayfair and Mooredale.
Marie was originally a member of the team of volunteers who
worked weekly for countless years in the Mooredale basement
sorting out donations for the very successful Flea Market. Marie’s
specialty was The Treasures, a collection of jewellery and trinkets
from which children chose Mother’s Day gifts.
For many years Marie has also been the keeper of the ticket-selling
aprons, faithfully collecting them at the end of Mayfair each year;
washing, drying, ironing and storing them all carefully for the next
year. On rainy years this sometimes involved a quick trip home for
some extra drying midday! In recent years, Mayfair volunteers have
appreciated Marie’s early morning coffee and doughnuts as they
set up on Saturday morning.
Marie will be continuing her work in the Mayfair clubhouse
next year organizing a myriad of logistical tasks. Marie is a
tremendous example of the
great volunteer commitment
which Mooredale engenders in
the community and by which we
all benefit. We all thank you so
much, Marie.

the memories)

Eric “Fidgit” Musselman
Camp Director
Summer is over,
but the memories
live on!
While having fun is a great aspect of camp, the best part
of camp is building relationships and seeing the campers and
staff grow as people. So many of our campers this summer
accomplished their swimming levels, passed their deep end tests,
hit a bull’s eye in archery and tried new things. It is so exciting for
our staff to see campers accomplish their goals and try something
new. But we also saw campers grow in their character – learning to
share with others, letting someone else go first, resolving conflicts
in a healthy way, and being respectful of those around us. Seeing
our campers ‘grow-up’ in these little ways is what makes summer
camp such a special and rewarding place to work.
It always takes a strong team with many different people to
make summer camp a success. I would like to thank Gnomeo (Erin
Ciona) for returning for her fourth summer. Aside from her normal
work managing our camp office, daily communication and liaising
with the pool managers, Gnomeo had the extra burden of showing
me the ‘ropes’ and being the main transitional person between
myself and Trogdor. She did an amazing job all around and we
couldn’t have had such a good summer without her tireless work.
I would also like to thank Jessica Procyshyn (Piton) for doing an
T
he summer camp season is over and we are thankful for
all the families who chose us this summer for their day
camp adventure! We had a wonderful summer running the
program and spending time with all of our campers – some for
a few days and others for a few weeks. The summer was filled
with big splashes and even bigger smiles in the pool, singing at
Mooredale Morning Madness, Meal Time Madness competitions
between counsellors, adventures with Clean-A-Bot and some great
field trips. This summer Mooredale campers went underwater at
Ripley’s Aquarium, rode the Tall Ships at Harbourfront, stepped back
in time at Black Creek Pioneer Village, visited the Police Museum,
bounced like crazy on the Skyzone trampolines and experimented
at the Science Centre. Here at camp we introduced a French
program for Junior campers, met Rapunzel and her friends at Big
Kid Entertainment, made our owns clouds in Geo Science, and even
blew up watermelons with elastics!
6
excellent job in the Program Director role this summer. Her creative
ideas and always-positive personality helped ensure our programs
ran smoothly. The campers thoroughly enjoyed all of our fantastic
Theme Days and field trips.
Huge thank you needs to be given to the rest of the strong
leadership team. Shannon (River), Jeremy (Poe), Katrina (Neon),
Sarah (Coral) and Adrienne (Chica) worked tirelessly with the
counsellors to set up programs, deal with camper conflict, dress up
in crazy costumes, create crazy Meal Time Madness competitions,
and do the 1001 things that need to be done every day to make
camp a success.
And last, but certainly not least, we all owe the Counsellors
thank you’s for the work they did every day with the campers. Each
morning at 8 am they arrived ready and excited to work and they
faithfully stuck to their duties until the last camper went home.
For many of them this was their first ‘real’ job, and it was such a
pleasure to walk with them through the experience and to see
them take on this challenging responsibility.
We look forward seeing everyone next summer!

Children
Interplay School of Dance has a simple philosophy for teaching
young children: Let each child find a way to enjoy movement.
Through structured and free movement our teachers guide the
students, allowing each to discover his or her body’s capabilities
and potential. By stimulating mental and physical creativity
(musically, spatially and rhythmically) children discover the magical
world of dance, how their bodies react to the music and how much
fun they can have trying to master it.

program will be specific to that group of players. They will have fun
lessons in skill followed up by a game in each session.
Families and players will receive two assessments (one at the
beginning and one at the end of the 9 week program). The Indoor
Soccer Academy will be Thursday at Monarch Park from 5:45-7pm.
More information will be available at www.mooredale.com

Carolyn Burgess
PRESCHOOL DIRECTOR
S
ummer Fun 2014, Mooredale’s playground was a hive of
activity, little yellow shirts filled with Mooredale’s youngest
campers merrily splashing and investigating each and every
corner and all the while bright canopies and our spectacular new
shade sails kept everyone cool and sun safe. Thank you to our
Mooredale lifeguards, Ellie, Callan, Sawyer and Fraser, our Summer
Fun program team, Irene, Michelle B. Serina, Michelle P, Amanda
and Michelle D. and our Junior Counsellor, Ryan, for such a great
summer, we’re sorry to see it end, but still we have so much to
look forward to this fall.
For over 60 years, and from Toddler to Kindergarten,
Mooredale Preschool has fostered a love of learning with an
enriched educational program, outstanding ratios and a highly
experienced and dedicated team of professionals. And this year
we are adding even more exceptional learning opportunities. So
far these include Yoga, enhanced French, more Music as well as
additional special guest invitations. For our kindergarten children
we look forward to an exciting new chess program, (yes, chess!)
as well as adventurous field trip destinations... better make sure
passports are all up to date… well maybe that’s wishful thinking,
but we promise a year of super excursions, both within and outside
of our community.
New! We are partnering with our very own Mooredale
programs in order to provide a “seamless day” that includes a
regular half day preschool class (morning or afternoon), our lunch
program and an escort to or from one of our Mooredale programs
such as, Monkeynastix, Karate, Sportball and the Little Travellers
Club, to name just a few.
Please contact the preschool office for more information or to
arrange a tour, we love to show you our program in action!

We’re already at work recruiting the 2015 team. Watch this

The Pool Club Annual Meeting takes place at 7:30pm on
Wednesday, October 15. All Pool Members are welcome to attend.

Areta Zhulla
Jupiter Symphony Chamber Players – Canadian
debut
Sunday, September 28: Concert Series 3:15pm,
Music & Truffles 1:15 – 2:15pm
They were formed in January 2002 as a living tribute
to musical maverick Jens Nygaard (1931-2001), founder
and conductor of the Jupiter Symphony, an orchestra
named after Mozart’s Symphony No. 41 (“Jupiter”). The
ensemble was an immediate success, with Adam Baer
of the New York Sun proclaiming it “one of the city’s
cultural jewels.”
The Players regale New York City with their
remarkable mixed ensemble programming of wellknown masterpieces and sublime hidden treasures
from the chamber music repertoire. Featured
performers are violinist Areta Zhulla, cellist Mihai
Marica, violist Vicki Powell, double bassist Nathaniel
West, clarinetist Vadim Lando, horn player Karl KramerJohansen, and bassoonist Gina Cuffari. Of special
interest, Areta plays on a copy of Stradivarius’s “Viotti”,
made in 2009 by her father, Greek luthier Lefter Zhulla.
The seven players will unite in Beethoven’s
enduringly beloved Septet in E flat Major, Op. 20 as
the grand performance for the afternoon. Jupiter team
members will also perform Mozart’s Clarinet Quartet in
B flat after K. 378 and the Serenade in C Major by Ernst
von Dohnanyi.
“Music-making of a very high order…at the Jupiter
concerts, there is always so much about which to be
enthusiastic… the rarities glittered like jewels” – Fred
Kirshnit, The New York Sun
“...Outstanding playing… The Serenade’s four movements
were put through their paces smartly, positively oozing
vivacity and élan...” – The Strad
Mihai Marica
Single tickets go on sale September 1; $30
adult/senior, $20 for under age 30, and $13 per
person for Music & Truffles, available online at www.
mooredaleconcerts.com or by phone, and at the door.

Join us this season. Enrich your life with the
sweet sounds of superb classical music!
