 Our Story
Story Time Active Living Kids was launched in 2015. ALK is a youth, social and educational development program for kids aged 6 to 12. We started with summer camp. One week in July and another in August for 6 hours a day. Every year is different and we always include some super fun highlights! Horse back riding and rafting! Golfing! How about tours at our local legion, museum, RCMP and Fire department! Or SWIMMING! Drop-in at the park between the summer camps went great in 2016! Water fights, outside games and craft making! In 2016 we launched the ALK After School Programs. 3 days a week for 8 weeks we run 2 hours of after school play and learn with our youth! Arts and Culture, Young Cooks, and FreeSwim at Best Western Plus! The Active Young Cooks program sparked a love for healthy cooking in our children. In 2017, we started putting together custom cook books for the classes to take home to their families! Encouraging awareness for Bullying, Harassment and Discrimination in Valemount In October, 2017, 9 highschool youth and 2 adults youth received certification as Red Cross 'Beyond The Hurt' facilitators. These youth have the tools to end conflicts directly. They work together to encourage further awareness in the community by delivering workshops to their peers. The adult facilitators are certified to continue training youth in the years to come. Beyond The Hurt', Cooperative Play Program 2018 The goal is to help kids recognize bullying and give them a few basic tools to end a conflict. Kids can participate in fun, engageing activities including several team building games and "ice breakers" while discussing topics like peer conflict and teasing vs bullying. The program is delivered by Red Cross, Beyond The Hurt' youth facilitators. These students are working hard to gain experience and comfort with their new Facilitator training.
