General Management

Sport Nunavut is responsible for the coordination and management of all Games programs of which Nunavut participates. Sport Nunavut was a division of the Dept. of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth, a department of the Government of Nunavut, at the time of the 2006 Arctic Winter Games.

Team Nunavut was led by the Chef de Mission and Assistant Chef de Mission. These individuals were assisted in supporting Team Nunavut by an additional 11 mission staff.

The individuals appointed as Chef de Mission, Assistant Chef de Mission and Mission Staff were as follows:

Frank Tootoo Chef de Mission (Staff) Baker Lake Kyle Seeley Assistant Chef de Mission (Staff) Baker Lake Napatchie Kolola Mission Staff (Staff) Iqaluit Jackson Lindell Mission Staff (Volunteer) Rankin Inlet Adrianna Kusugak Mission Staff (Volunteer) Iqaluit Tommy Bruce Mission Staff (Volunteer) Rankin Inlet Doug McLarty Mission Staff (Volunteer) Rankin Inlet Dave Little Mission Staff (Volunteer) Kugluktuk Philippa Gammage Mission Staff (Volunteer) Baker Lake Duane Kroeker Mission Staff (Volunteer) Igloolik Terry Young Mission Staff (Volunteer) Iqaluit Noah Tiktak Mission Staff (Volunteer) Rankin Inlet Isabelle Verreault Mission Staff (Volunteer) Kugluktuk Terry Aknavigak Mission Staff (Volunteer) Cambridge Bay

The Chef de Mission was a staff person who was appointed by the Minister of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth. The Assistant Chef de Mission was a staff person who was appointed by the Minister of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth.

The remaining mission staff was selected through an application process, which was initiated in May 2005. The mission staff was selected based on their interest, experience, involvement in sport, and expertise.

Because of distance and cost, it was difficult to bring the mission staff together as a group prior to the Games. It was important however, to ensure that the mission staff played an active and hands-on role in the development of our team. Following the selection of our mission staff, Mission Staff Handbooks were prepared and distributed to all mission staff. These handbooks included information such as:

• Technical packages • Registration forms • Code of Conduct • 2006 Arctic Winter Games orientation information

Page 4 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Some of the selected mission staff had an opportunity to assist and become familiar with the Arctic Winter Games participants at Regional or Territorial qualifying events prior to the actual Games.

Sport Nunavut staff and 2006 AWG mission staff attending the 2006 Arctic Winter Games qualifying events distributed AWG registration forms to athletes and coaches, assisted in the completion of these forms where possible and took photos used in the accreditation process.

Recommendations:

Similar to past AWG years, the need for more volunteer involvement at the Regional and Territorial Championships will be required. Mission staff and local Host Committees will need to be further developed to allow for better competition planning and carry out. This development and provision of expectations for hosting events will lessen the necessity for Sport Nunavut staff involvement during actual competitions. Sport Nunavut staff should ultimately be involved in the planning stages only.

Territorial Team Selections

The team selection process for Team Nunavut 2006 consisted of Regional and Territorial selection competitions. Sport Nunavut consulted with the Territorial Sport Organizations (TSO’s) for their assistance in identifying a team selection process for their particular sport. The team selection process requests were sent out to TSOs in the spring of 2005 and feedback received was used in the creation of individual sport host packages.

Sport Nunavut and the TSO’s identified team and coach selection processes, and provided this information to community recreation staff, coaches, and schools through various communication strategies. Sport Nunavut worked with the individual TSO’s in coordinating all Regional and Territorial events, especially in the way of athlete travel.

Sport Nunavut tendered out portions of participant travel to the Regional and Territorial Championships where cost savings could be realized. The bulk of the Regional and Territorial Championship participant travel was done through the booking of scheduled travel through various airlines in Nunavut, namely First Air, Canadian North, Calm Air, Kivalliq Air and Ken Borek Aviation.

Regional Trials were used where there were high participant numbers and Territorial Trials were used if participant numbers were lower. Hockey held 2 Territorial Championships in the Bantam and Midget divisions, while the Junior Female hockey team was selected at 2 different camp format selection events.. Games was uncontested and advanced directly to the Arctic Winter Games. The Junior Male and Female and Indoor Soccer teams were selected after both Regional and Territorial Championships. Games, , , , , and went through the Territorial Trial format.

Representation across Nunavut: The representation from across Nunavut is also a strong indication that development is occurring in virtually every community. There were 23 of the 25 communities competing at the regional and/or territorial level. Members of Team Nunavut represented 23 of the 25 communities, a great achievement for Sport Nunavut.

Page 6 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Athlete Participation Ratios: Regional/Territorials: The female/male participation ratio also shows balanced athlete development. Regional/Territorials (1434) Females – 613 = 42.7% Males – 821 = 57.3%

With 2 hockey teams for males and only one for females, the numbers change dramatically when hockey is removed. Regional/Territorials (1147) Females – 562 = 49% Males – 585 = 51%

2004 Arctic Winter Games: The female/male participation ratio also shows balanced athlete development. Games (212) Females – 97 = 45.8% Males – 115 = 54.2%

Hockey removed: Games (161) Females – 80 = 49.7% Males – 81 = 50.3% These ratios far exceed the usual female/male representations.

Coach Ratios: The ratio for male/female coaches is also above the usual representations.

Regional/Territorials: (121) Females – 36 = 29.8% Males – 85 = 70.2%

Games: (29) Females – 13= 44.8% Males – 16 = 55.2%

Recommendations:

• Promote the regional competition aspect of competitions; goals to advance the hosting capacity of smaller communities, while highlighting the fundraising component of hosting events. • Regional competitions, as opposed to Territorial competitions, will have a cost saving factor, due to the lessening of participant travel costs. • Ensure that all coaches, recreation coordinators, schools are aware of the team selection process well in advance.

Accommodations

Most responses received from coaches were positive. The different age groups in the same room issue that was raised at previous Games was addressed.

There were some difficulties with the room allocations, as not all team members were housed with their teams. Venue leaders were very helpful in solving a few problems and lodgings were eventually sorted out for these individuals.

The sleeping bags and souvenir bags were very popular with the athletes.

The security staff at the accommodation venues was very helpful. They were diligent in checking for accreditation at the venues.

Recommendations:

• Hosts provide a room plan and allow Teams to designate room/bed allocations. • Provide food options after late night competitions. • House athletes not only by sport but by age categories as well. • Provide more access to telephones.

Banquets/Special Functions

The Arctic Winter Games International Committee (AWGIC) hosted a reception acknowledging each contingents mission staff. The reception was casual, yet encouraged everyone to mingle and meet people from other contingents. The mission staff appreciated the ulus very much.

The reception in Kenai was held at a beautiful facility, with an impressive assortment of food.

The Mission Staff night was attended by all of the mission staff and was enjoyable.

Recommendations:

• Continue to host this reception. • Casual is great!

Page 8 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Meals The accommodation venue cafeterias offered the participants a good variety of food. The general response from coaches was that the cafeteria served the purpose very well. One complaint was the amount of fried food served.

The availability of box lunches for the curling participants that went to Homer everyday was well received, once the system was ironed out.

The staff working in the cafeterias was very friendly and helpful.

Recommendations:

• Continue with grazing style of feeding. • More “healthy choice” items on menu. • An area be available in the dorms for late meals and/or snacking when teams are returning from late games. • Accommodate teams finishing late in the evening with a “in res” box meal option.

Ceremonies and Awards

The staging area for the Opening Ceremonies was well planned and provided for an orderly procession into the Opening Ceremony venue.

The Opening Ceremonies venue, the Soldotna Sport Center, was an outstanding facility to kick off the Games in.

The participants were treated to a fast moving and entertaining program that was definitely designed with the athletes in mind. Good show!

The Team Nunavut Opening Ceremony flag bearer was Heather Kolit of Coral Harbour (Inuit Games). Heather was chosen because these Games would likely be her last chance to represent Nunavut as an Inuit Games athlete and for her past performances at the Games.

The Closing Ceremony flag bearer was Manasie Kendall of Iqaluit (Speed Skating). Manasie was chosen for his perseverance during the Games, and for his genuine showing of sportsmanship at the Games. Manasie’s outstanding performance at the Games was quantified by his 5 Gold Medals.

Recommendations:

• Continue to have an athlete focused ceremony. • Having a lot of media coverage is important in making people feel part of the Games. • Stick to a one hour Opening Ceremonies. • Allow for athlete seating areas.

Communications

The communications systems put in place were functional and helped us in dealing with issues quickly. The cell phones provided to the Mission Staff were appreciated and made contact with other mission staff, teams, Games staff and emergency contacts very convenient.

The Mission Headquarters office equipment (Fax & Copier) was adequate and the volunteers at the headquarters were very friendly and helpful.

The Games phone number guides provided by the Host Society were very helpful in locating phone numbers when required.

The computers provided were great and provided the mission staff with the required tools to do their job. The volunteer system technicians were very helpful in setting up for our needs.

The internet café’s were well received, and locating them in the residence quarters was a key for athletes communicating with family and friends at home.

The provision of the prepaid phone cards to all participants was a great touch and very well received by the participants.

One common complaint during the Games was the lack of access to telephones to call home at a convenient hour. Part of this problem was the time difference between Alaska and the athlete’s homes.

Recommendations:

• Ensure an effective communication system is in place for mission staff. • Be sure the communications coming from the Host Society or International Committee is consistent, such as always via e-mail, fax or hard copy, to ensure proper delivery of important schedule changes, notices, etc. • Provide participants better access to telephones, possibly temporary payphones can be set up at or near the accommodation or meal venues.

Cultural Program

The responsibility of selecting our cultural delegates fell to the Department of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth (CLEY), the department of government responsible for culture. The Cultural performers were chosen via an application process and selected by a committee of CLEY staff. The staff of the C.L.E.Y. department did a great job in promoting, advertising and selecting the Cultural delegates we eventually had representing Nunavut at the Games.

The Cultural delegates were kept very busy during the Games, performing at many venues not only in Kenai and Soldotna, but also in many outlying communities on the Kenai Peninsula. This enabled the group, most of whom were teenagers, to see a bit of the area. The group also had time to take in some of the sporting events at the Games.

Recommendations:

• Continue to schedule cultural events in a fashion that encourages the performers to partake in other Games events. • Book each contingent’s cultural performers for at least one “Main Stage” performance, if they wish to. Leave the option to the performers. • Implementation of a “Cultural Tech Package” will be helpful to pull together a more successful use and presentation of cultural performers. • Post the list of performers at the sites so that the public knows who they are and where they are from.

Page 11 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Facilities and Equipment

The Kenai Peninsula hosted events with a multitude of excellent facilities. The venue leaders at each venue site did an excellent job in preparation for the Games and during the Games themselves.

The following are comments on each of the facilities:

Arctic Sports The high school used for Inuit Games was adequate in terms of participant space and facility amenities. The venues used for Dene Games were adequate.

Basketball Cook Inlet Academy was a great facility for basketball. The athletes complemented the floor and backboards. Spectator viewing was great.

Cultural Venues The Cultural performers were asked to perform in many different venues during the week. A chance to travel to the other communities outside of Kenai was well received by the performers.

Hockey The Soldotna Sports Center hockey arena used during the games was great. The Kenai Multi-Purpose facility was adequate

Soccer The indoor soccer venue at the Soldotna High School was similar to facilities used by the participants and was well received by the participants.

Speed Skating The arena used for speed skating was good. Having a venue that was used mainly for speed skating was great, although more ice time at a larger spectator equipped venue would have been great.

Volleyball The Skyview High School facility was very spectator friendly and provided a good venue for the competition.

Wrestling The site was excellent. Our coaches were very pleased with the flooring, the officiating, the organization.

Page 12 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Finance

Team Nunavut was financed through Sport Nunavut and the Government of Nunavut division of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth. In addition, all participants were required to pay a registration for both Territorial competitions and the Games themselves…$150.00 and $250.00 respectively

As you can imagine, costs associated with bringing a team to the AWG’s is extremely high for Nunavut. Contributing factors include:

• All travel is by air (for Regionals, Territorials and the Games); • Freight…medals, pins, clothing, promotional material; • Officials from the south; • Coach and Official training • Team training camps

The total budget exceeded $2 million dollars…a cost that is extremely high. This did not include any training dollars to our teams once they were selected, and did not include any extras for the team.

Recommendations:

• Continued Government of Nunavut support is essential.

Forms and Publications

The following forms, publications and manuals were developed by Sport Nunavut. Copies can be found in the Appendices.

• Mission Staff manual • Participants Handbook • Code of Conduct • Newsletters • Territorial registration form • Arctic Winter Games registration form

Page 13 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Insurance

Team Nunavut athletes, coaches and mission staff were covered under the umbrella insurance policy purchased by Sport Nunavut on an annual basis. This policy covers all individuals who are affiliated members of their Territorial Sport Organization (TSO), and who are in good standing with the TSO and Sport Nunavut.

Additional insurance coverage was purchased for the representative Team Nunavut at the 2006 AWG through All Sport Insurance.

The Government of Nunavut’s agreement for contract services was utilized to formalize the agreement with our airline carriers. This agreement includes specific conditions for insurance required by the carrier.

Recommendations:

• Contingents purchase additional Games insurance prior to all multi-sport Games.

Media

The media coverage prior to, during and after the Games was great. From all reports, the televised Opening and Closing Ceremonies were great. Having CBC North provide daily updates to was well received by the parents of participants.

Our athletes were the focus of special programming done by the C.B.C., and provided good PR for Nunavut.

A questionnaire was included as part of the registration process to better prepare participants for similar questions at the Games.

Team Nunavut did not produce a media guide.

Recommendations:

• Produce an all inclusive (all contingents) media guide containing participant information. • Host Society request or contract a local cable TV channel provide Games schedules and results prior and during the Games.

Page 14 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Medical

Staff at the Central Peninsula General Hospital was very professional and helpful to all the injured athletes and the mission staff who assisted the injured athletes. Emergency response staff was great; and made all the injured athletes feel a little better once they had them taken care of.

The designation of a Medical Liaison person was very helpful, although stressful for the one individual.

Recommendations:

• Medical reports should be available daily for each contingent. It is important for to keep track of injuries, so that monitoring and follow-up can take place. • Designate a contact person (Chef or Medical Liaison) for all persons seeking care. • Host Society Medical Committee provide a report to the respective Chef’s in regard to any participant seeking treatment at the Chef’s meetings. This would allow the Mission Staff to follow up on treatment and “return to play” issues with coaches and parents.

Registration and Accreditation

Sport Nunavut used the Territorial Trials to gather the required information and to take digital photos of participants to submit to the Host Society online. The online registration process was a bit cumbersome for staff to do because of firewall issues within the Government of Nunavut system. Much of the registration information that was supposedly submitted to the Host Society was not received and had to be re-done onsite upon team arrival.

The color coded luggage tag system worked fairly well, with only a few bags that needed to be claimed and forwarded to their destinations upon arrival.

The airport hangar accreditation system seemed to work very well. The people handling the accreditation at the hangar were friendly and helpful when the information on the badges did not match the individual participant.

The accreditation badges themselves were of good quality and lasted the week of abuse the athletes put them through. Aside from a few badges that had to be changed to allow access, things went well.

Recommendations:

• Continue to utilize the Internet for registration. • Ensure that the system is fully accessible during the registration period. • Photo identification is a great tool, continue to use it. • Send out the luggage tags to the contingents earlier.

Page 15 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Results

The 2006 Arctic Winter Games website provided an excellent method of viewing results. Results were posted in a timely manner.

The daily Ulu News was a great way of distributing results.

Recommendations:

• Provide contingents with results pertinent only to their teams and athletes at mission desk.

Security

With the usage of so many accommodation venues at the Games, security levels varied from venue to venue.

The use of school office areas for security bases was good and was very visible and accessible to athletes and coaches when required.

The security staff at all the venues was friendly and helpful.

The use of both male and female security personnel was a positive step and well received by the female participants.

Recommendations:

• Formulate a curfew violator policy at the start of the Games. • Maintain the recruitment of sufficient female security staff. • Strictly enforce “No Smoking” proximity to entrance by-laws.

Page 16 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Sports

Concerns related to the Technical Package:

Arctic Sports No Issues Badminton No issues Basketball No issues Culture No issues Hockey No issues Indoor Soccer No issues Speed Skating No issues Volleyball No Issues Wrestling No Issues Dene Games No Issues Table Tennis No Issues

Recommendations:

• Technical packages should include basic information on rules and regulations of the sport. • Sport specific tie breaking, default and protest procedures should be clearly outlined in each Tech Package and reviewed at the coaches meeting. • Continue practice of having technical meetings during the Games.

Page 17 of 77 Sport Nunavut 2006 Arctic Winter Games Final Report

Transportation

Transportation prior to the Games, and to the Games, was all done via air travel. The Regional and Territorial Trial travel was done through a combination of scheduled and charter air travel, depending on cost-effectiveness. A public tender was issued by the Government of Nunavut to transport the team to the Games. The transportation component for any set of Games Nunavut participates in is always the highest cost item.

With Nunavut’s ever increasing participation numbers, the transportation costs were increased from previous Arctic Winter Games.

The complimentary vehicles provided by the Host Society were great. Additional rental vehicles for Mission Staff were procured from local and Anchorage based vehicle rental agencies.

Overall, the athlete transportation system worked very well. The main complaint being the distances and the time required to go from venue to venue, especially for athletes that were not staying at a food service venue.

Recommendations:

• Ensure that all teams have copies of the actual bus routes upon arrival to the community. • Ensure strict operation of designated bus routes with no deviations. • Continue to provide complimentary vehicles to Chefs.

Arctic Winter Games International Committee

Contact with the AWGIC and Sport Nunavut was through Ian Legaree and Marilyn Neily, who provided the necessary information and hosted the Chefs calls that were scheduled prior to the Games.

The hosting of the last Chef’s meeting and site visit prior to the Games provided the opportunity for the Chefs and Assistant Chefs to be made aware of the Kenai Peninsula Area and any changes that occurred during the Host Society’s preparations.

The reception hosted by the AWGIC during the Games for all mission staff was appreciated and very nice. By keeping it informal, people are encouraged to mingle and meet the partners involved with the Games.

1. INTRODUCTION A History of the Arctic Winter Games

The 1967 Jeux Canada Games in City marked the first time a contingent of athletes from the participated in a "Games" competition at the National level. This experience led to negotiations to develop a new winter games competition designed specifically for the people who live north of the 60th Parallel.

Government officials from Alaska, Yukon Territory, the Northwest Territories and Federal Members of Parliament worked together to realize the first Arctic Winter Games in 1970 at , N.W.T. with the goal:

To furnish the opportunity through sport for the social and cultural meeting of the Northern peoples regardless of language, race or creed.

Since the first successfully staged Arctic Winter Games in 1970, successive Games have been held every second year; in Whitehorse, Yukon 1972; Anchorage, Alaska- 1974; Schefferville, Quebec - 1976; Hay River - Pine Point, N.W.T. 1978; Whitehorse, Yukon 1980; Fairbanks, Alaska 1982; Yellowknife, N.W.T. - 1984; Whitehorse, Yukon - 1986; Fairbanks, Alaska - 1988; Yellowknife, N.W.T. - 1990; Whitehorse, Yukon - 1992; Slave Lake, Alberta- 1994; Chugiak-Eagle River, Alaska, - 1996; Yellowknife, NWT - 1998. The 2000 Games were held in Whitehorse. For the first time ever, the 2002 Games were co-hosted by Iqaluit, Nunavut and Nuuk, Greenland. Quebec joined the original members (State of Alaska, Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories) in 1972. Unfortunately, for financial reasons the Province of Quebec withdrew from the Games in 1977. At the 1986 Games, Northern Quebec (Nunavik) and sent small contingents.

The Northwest Territories has sent a team to each Arctic Winter Games since 1970, however Nunavut made its debut during the 2000 Arctic Winter Games in Whitehorse, Yukon.

The Arctic Winter Games International Committee was formed to act as a guardian of the Games responsible for philosophy and rules. The International Committee is composed of two directors from each of the participating units. As the governing body of the Games, the International Committee develops policy respecting the preparation of the Games, including eligibility rules for competitors and officials and rules under which the technical packages are constructed.

The success of the International Committee in nurturing the Games was confirmed by the report, "The Impact and Achievements of the Arctic Winter Games 1968-1976" released in the fall of 1977. The report recommends the biennial format of the Games continue and the Federal Government financial support be continued. The report notes this Northern event is more than an athletic competition and states:

Page 32 of 77

"The Arctic Winter Games were intended to become a common ground in developing northern athletes, in promoting cultural and social interchange among northern people, cultures and races inhabiting the northern regions of our continent".

"The achievement of individual excellence in athletics, while a desirable result of the competitions, is not the primary motive. Instead, the Arctic Winter Games International Committee has taken the approach that the fundamental purpose of the Games is to encourage mass participation, by all ages, cultures and walks of life, in a broad range of athletic activity".

A second study has been recently completed on the second cycle of the Arctic Winter Games 1978-82. The report highlights that the basic intent and philosophy of the Arctic Winter Games has been achieved. The International Committee is singled out for the many actions its directors have taken to improve, promote and enhance the Games and the report highly praises the Northwest Territories Unit for its dramatically improved organization, administration and efficiency in selecting Team Northwest Territories.

The International Committee invites bids from the pre-determined Territory, Province or State of Alaska requesting submissions from municipalities interested in hosting the Games. The final selection of the successful Host Municipally’ is made by the International Committee at least two years prior to the Games.

The Host Municipality is required to establish an incorporated, non-profit Host Society, responsible for the organization and operation of the Games in accordance with the guidelines outlined by the Arctic Winter Games International Committee.

It is the responsibility of the Host Society to invite the Territories, by way of letter to the Commissioner, to participate in the Games that they are hosting. The 2000 Games in Whitehorse, Yukon were the first opportunity that Nunavut had to send a representative team. Acceptance of this invitation indicates, to the Host Municipality and Host Territory or State, formal endorsement and support from the Government of Nunavut for the participation of Nunavut athletes and officials. On the strength of this invitation being accepted, the Host Society is obligated to provide food, lodging, transportation, medical services, communications, entertainment, equipment, protocol, results and hospitality to Nunavut competitors, officials and mission staff during the conduct of the Games.

You are going on a big trip, pack well. Here are some things to bring with you:

• Towels • A Pillow • Personal Items (shampoo, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste) • Pajamas • Shower Shoes • Enough clothes for 8 days away from home • Swimming gear

Bring that, But Don't Bring...

• Portable Electronic Equipment (Discman, MP3 Player etc) • Sheets (they are provided) • Sleeping Bags (they are provided)

Upon checking through customs in Kenai, each participant will be issued a sleeping bag and a pack sack/gym bag, which includes a water bottle; and postcards to send home, courtesy of the Host Society

Eat, Sleep, Get Moving

Eat: Most of your meals will be at one of the Villages. You can get there on the transport system every day if you are not staying at the food service venue.

Individuals with food allergies, please have your coach disclose them to the Chef de Mission for Team Nunavut, Frank Tootoo at 1-888-765-5506 or via e-mail at [email protected].

Sleep: You will sleep at one of the athlete village locations, depending on your sport or contingent. You will sleep on a bunk bed with a mattress and sheet provided, in a classroom with from 10 to 16 other people. There will be a coach or chaperone in each room with you, and security will be around at all times.

DORM RULES We can't live without rules, so here they are:

• The curfew will be 11:00 p.m. for all participants staying in the dorms • No drugs, alcohol or tobacco in the Villages or on the grounds of any Games facility • Girls on girl’s floors, boys on boy’s floors, no exceptions! • Show accreditation to get into your room - no accreditation, no access • Have fun, meet people, and be friendly!

Hang out and Relax:

There will be village lounges at the Kenai Central High School, Soldotna High School and Skyview High School. You can go there when you are not competing, relax, watch TV, play some games and meet other participants from around the world.

The Kenai Recreation Center will be the main participant lounge and is an area that will provide the most choices for fun when you want to hang out with other participants. Pool tables, racquet ball and a video arcade are a few of the choices. A snack bar is on site.

Swimming:

Three village sites have swimming pools available for all participants to use: Kenai Central High, Soldotna High School and Skyview High School. Available times and space will be posted at each pool as well as in the participant’s lounges.

Enjoying the Games

In the second week of March 2006, a large number of visitors will descend on the Kenai Peninsula. It’s bound to be an exciting time in a thriving community that 7,500 residents call home.

In order to help ensure the Games are a fun and enjoyable experience for the athletes, the host society has some straightforward tips.

1) Respect the curfew: A curfew is a key way of ensuring the safety of the athletes while also helping them perform at a peak level. Security personnel and Mission Staff will be enforcing the 11:00 PM curfew to help ensure the daily safety of all participants.

2) Be a buddy: Look out for each other’s well being – it will go a long way to having a fun and safe experience.

3) Protect your property: Lock up your cherished belongings when you’re not using them to help ensure they don’t disappear.

4) Be responsible: The 2006 Arctic Winter Games is following the strict policy of being a tobacco, alcohol and drug-free event. Participants are expected to also follow this rule, which is designed to promote a healthy and responsible lifestyle.

5) Respect your home away from home. The Kenai Peninsula Borough is excited to host this international event. Show your appreciation of this hospitality by respecting your host community.
