Pool Rules & Etiquette Public bathing facilities have a long history dating back to around 6th century BC and the ancient Greeks. And in countries all over the world, these public facilities are still an important aspect of community life. In Burnaby, the city’s community centres have a similar function; they’re community gathering places where people can meet and make friends, exercise and unwind before or after a busy day. However, our swimming pools are definitely not bathing facilities. They are places for swimming only, and we respectfully ask patrons not to think of the pool as a place for personal hygiene but as a place to swim. Staff at Burnaby’s pools work very hard to maintain a safe and sanitary facility. The pools are cleaned each day, and a state-of-the-art filtration and chemical treatment system ensures that the water and the surrounding deck are clean. We also need your help to maintain a clean, comfortable and sanitary environment. Outside shoes are not allowed on the pool deck; they can track in dirt and germs, which of course contaminate the pool. Please go barefoot or bring sandals to wear when on the pool deck. Health regulations also require that everyone take a cleansing shower using soap before entering the pool or hot tub areas. Please note: Our family change rooms are very busy spaces. These rooms are for people with children and for people with disabilities. Thank you very much for your cooperation and understanding in following these important pool regulations.

Stroll down the streets of a 1920s village exploring at your own pace. The village is a combination of heritage and replica buildings on a 10-acre site that represents a typical tram-stop community along the B.C. Electric Railway. Period-costumed townsfolk welcome visitors and give demonstrations in many of the homes, businesses and shops. Popular stops include the blacksmith, the print shop, the garden at the farmhouse and the general store.
The recently restored Interurban #1223 is truly elegant. This tram is part of the area’s rich public transportation history. It ran on the interurban lines in Burnaby until the mid-fifties. An exciting must for every visitor is a whirl on the historic 1912 C.W. Parker Carousel. Rides are accompanied by music from a 1925 Wurlitzer band organ. Amenities include picnic tables, a gift shop and an ice-cream parlour that offers a menu for light meals and snacks. The site is wheelchair accessible.

Burnaby’s community arts development program continues to flourish thanks to the initiatives of our community. If you have an idea for a community art project that shares concerns, ideas or dreams, we encourage you to bring them forward. To start, work together with other community members and prepare a proposal of how you plan to fulfill all facets of your community art project. Once you have your plan together, contact us. If the criteria is met for a community arts initiative and resources are available, it’s possible the community arts development program will support the project in some of the following ways: planning advice, artistic process, resource information, recommendation of artists to facilitate the project and/or partial funding. For more information, please contact the Community Arts Development Programmer at 604-473-2363 or e-mail: [email protected].

We all know that physical activity—taking a walk, riding a bike, dancing or playing—simply makes us feel better. But regular physical activity brings about many other benefits. Not only can it improve and maintain good health, it can also bring with it important social and economic advantages. Regular physical activity benefits communities and economies in terms of reduced health care costs, increased productivity, better school performance, lower worker absenteeism and turnover, and increased participation in sports and recreational activities. Move for Health, a worldwide initiative, promotes the importance of physical activity. These free events are taking place all over Burnaby during this special celebration.
