Finance Report: Chair called on Joanne Kuntz – V.P. Finance to introduce Cheryl Hugill - accountant from BDO Dunwoody. Cheryl presented financial statements for KWSC for 2011-2012. VP - Finance invited to field questions from the membership. Motion: to accept the 2011 – 2012 financial report as presented. M: Joanne Kuntz S: Allison Smerchinski Discussion: none Carried. Question: Steve Scherrer: are there guidelines for use of Trust funds now that it has been melded together? Answer: we have a timeline to do the amalgamation. Thus far, the numbers were put together only in the financial statements. In the short term, a task force will be struck (Board members and former Trustees) to reintegrate the trust into the organization. Guidelines for spending will likely not change much and will be a key deliverable by this task force. Question: Steve Scherrer Governance: do we have guidelines that establish what type of investments are permitted by the Board? Answer: There is an investment policy for the Trust. KWSC is using the same policy – investing in GICs and other guaranteed investments with varying durations. Steve Scherrer: Further comment: We need to develop policy around our investment guidelines go-forward as this is gaining momentum at the Sectional level as well. Question: Mrs. Fedy: It was Dr. Coker who started the Trust fund. When did the Government decide we needed to pay tax? Answer: Investment income over $2000 has always been taxed, but now there is a concerted effort by CRA to collect these taxes from not-for-profit organizations. G) Appointment of Auditors: Motion: to retain BDO Dunwoody as financial auditors for 2012-2013. M: Joanne Kuntz S: Irene Earl Discussion: none Carried. H) Executive Director’s Report: As presented in the report contained in the AGM booklet. I) President’s Report As presented in the report contained in the AGM booklet. In addition to the President’s report in the booklet, it was noted that access to parking for KWSC members was seriously compromised during several events held at RIM Park this past spring leading to a disruption of service and great inconvenience to our members. J) Other Reports: There were no questions from the membership regarding the reports. K) Adoption of Reports: Motion: to approve the reports as presented in the 2011-2012 KWSC AGM booklet. M: Paul Mallet S: Lori Mulder Discussion: none Carried. L) Amendment to the By-laws: Further to discussion at last year’s AGM changes were required to the KWSC constitution to reflect the fact that the Advisory Council is no longer an entity within the KWSC Constitution. Additionally, the constitution reflects the proposed name change from Treasurer to V.P – Finance. 5 The proposed revised constitution was posted with the Notice of meeting at the club and on the KWSC website. Changes are noted with a line through wording to be deleted and new wording or additions in red.

O) Meeting adjournment: Motion: to adjourn M: Patrick Therrien Meeting adjourned at 7:37 pm. 6 2012 -13 Executive Director’s Report Our 2012-13 operational activities have focused on a wide range of programs and special projects to addressed the needs of our skaters in every discipline and at every level from grass roots to our elite international competitors. There were many busy periods where deadlines were tight, and I have to commend the team of volunteers who aided our very small staff to get it all done. Results of this effort could be seen with the addition of special 16+ STAR sessions to meet the unique needs of that group, the rebirth of adult synchro, the largest ever STARSkate summer camp, a special program for WLU students to support their varsity skating team revival, larger sectional simulations including skaters from other clubs, concussion training for coaches and skaters, a consistent and successful approach to skater identification and enrichment program invitation, as well as the unveiling of a new Introduction to Figure Skating program that redefined how CanSkaters enter our STAR system and how parents participate in the process of coach selection and figure skating orientation. The online registration process was adopted by over 85% of our membership and by most measures was a huge success. However, while The customer experience runs smoothly now, our office team still works very hard to support the administration of that system given some of the challenges of trying to merge the Skate Canada run front end with our external vendor back end, and I must commend our office staff Mandy Cooper and Debbie Weber for their diligence and persistence in this area to get it all correct.

  • 2.1Sport and Leisure Time
    2.1 SPORT AND LEISURE TIME There are a large number of sports that involve the water. Here we present the most popular in the countries involved in the project. SWIMMING The recreational activity of swimming has been recorded since prehistoric times. Although humans have been swimming for thousands of years, swimming only became a competitive sport in the early 1800s. Today, swimming is the third most-watched sport in the Olympic Games. In 1828, the first indoor swimming pool, St George's Baths was opened to the public. Competitive swimming became popular in the nineteenth century. Swimming is an event at the Summer Olympic Games, where male and female athletes compete in 16 of the recognized events each. Olympic events are held in a 50-meter pool, called a long course pool. In competitive swimming, four major styles have been established. Butterfly (fly) Backstroke (back) Breaststroke (breast) Freestyle (free) In open water swimming, where the events are swum in a body of open water (lake or sea), there are also 5 km, 10 km and 25 km events for men and women. SYNCHRONIZED SWIMMING It is a hybrid form of swimming, dance and gymnastics, consisting of swimmers (either solos, duets, trios, combos, or teams) performing a synchronized 114 routine of elaborate moves in the water, accompanied by music. Competitors show off their strength, flexibility, and aerobic endurance required to performing difficult routines. Swimmers perform two routines for the judges, one technical and one free, as well as age group routines and figures. The origin - in 1933 & 1934, Katherine Whitney Curtis organized a show, "The Kay Curtis Modern Mermaids," for the World Exhibition in Chicago.
