One of the great benefits of living in Redmond is the wealth of classes and other recreation opportunities offered by the City’s Parks and Recreation department. This fall is no exception.

New this year is an easy way to commit to fitness – the Redmond Fit Pass. This punch card allows you to drop into a variety of different classes offered at every fitness level and style. Are you looking for something different? Get your buddies together for some old fashion fun and join the new adult Dodge Ball League! We also continue to offer many types of creative and sports oriented classes from drama, art and dance to horsemanship, fencing and martial arts.

To create a lasting work of art, take a class at the Redmond Clay Studio. Since the studio began three years ago, students have produced many beautiful objects, sculpture and dinnerware. The Third Annual Redmond Clay Studio Holiday Art Show and Sale will be held the weekend of December 9 through 11. This is a perfect time to purchase a unique gift for you or family and friends.

Another perfect place to shop for gifts and support local craftspeople is at the annual Holiday Craft Bazaar at the Senior Center on December 3. Also in December is the annual Candlelight Dinner Dance, a very popular event to help kick off the holiday season.

Speaking of holiday season, please make sure you put Redmond Lights on your calendar for Saturday, December 3. This winter festival is uniquely Redmond’s; celebrating our cultural diversity and our beautiful river landscape.

I hope you find inspiration to keep active and fit this fall and winter. In this guide, we have something for every age and taste. See you around town.

CloggingClogging is a great form of aerobic exer-cise, with many health benefits. Including improved coordination and flexibility, lower blood pressure and stress relief, increased endurance, strength and lung capacity, and weight loss. Clogging is a percussive dance that keeps time with the downbeat of the music, whereas most other forms of dance keep time with the upbeat. Clogging often imitates the rhythm of the music, although it more often accents and complements the rhythms. Cloggers dance to many different styles of music including Country-Western, Pop, Rock, and of course, Bluegrass. Wear comfortable clothes and comfortable shoes with flexible soles - athletic shoes are acceptable, leather sole shoes are recom-mended, tap shoes are optional.

Children will build forts, dig in the dirt, explore puddles, streams, and trails, hunt for slugs, worms, and bugs, investigate plants, and animals, and develop a true appreciation for the environment. Children must dress for outdoor explorations, more details will be sent to parents after registration. Children must be potty trained (NO PULL-UPS!) and be 3 1/2 years old by the first class.

Equestrian EQUESTRIAN

Farrel-McWhirter Riding SchoolThe Equestrian Programs at Farrel-McWhirter adopted a new format and developed our new Farrel-McWhirter Riding School. The goal of the Farrel-McWhirter Riding School is to better serve the long-term equestrian needs of the community. Benefits include smaller class sizes that will provide more one on one instruction, more evenly skilled groups, enabling staff and riders alike to be focused on achieving goals and benchmarks.

The Farrel-McWhirter Riding School strives to develop the confident, assertive and sensitive rider. We believe that the rider of any age, ability or discipline can achieve successful horsemanship in a relaxed and supportive environment. We teach riders how to communicate effectively and develop a relationship based on mutual trust and respect. Our riders learn confidence, responsibility and independence through quality instruction.

The curriculum at Farrel-McWhirter Riding School has been developed to help each and every rider achieve their riding goals and master skills at their own pace. We are a multi-disciplined facility and offer English, Western, and Dressage instruction to ages 2 to adult.

Our riding instructors are all very skilled and experienced and many of them have competed and trained in numerous disciplines such as reining, dressage, hunt seat, jumping, western pleasure, equitation, rodeo, collegiate equestrian teams, showmanship and driving to name a few.

Our horses and ponies are specifically chosen due to their high level of training or trainability, well rounded skills and personable disposition. We have a wide range of equine sizes and skills to accommodate the smallest rider to an average size adult.

Our goal is to provide a valuable experience for the City of Redmond community that enhances their quality of life and to allow as many horse lovers to experience the wonderful world of horses at an affordable price.

We look forward to meeting you and sharing this beautiful facility and our fabulous 4-legged friends! ~ Farrel McWhirter Riding School Staff

Fencing IntermediateThis intermediate-level class is intended for children 8-13 who have completed the beginning program, or who have been recommended by a coach. This program is designed to prepare young fencers for the demands of competition through a series of tactical exercises, organized bouting, and short lessons to promote technical profi-ciency and physical development. More emphasis will be placed on each athlete fencing a particular weapon, as opposed to the a la carte approach of the youth pro-gram. The skills necessary to complete this program are more specific and detailed than those in the previous program, thus class completion, typically, takes approximately a year.

Team Assignments (Grades 1-6)Teams are assigned by The Parks & Recreation Department. Teams in this league will be as-signed according to each child’s grade level, and the school they attend. We try to keep all chil-dren at their home school but there is always the possibility that they may play for a neighboring school if there are not enough, or too many kids registered from their home school for one team. If there are enough kids from your child’s grade and school to form more than one team, we will split the players up into teams randomly. However, players may request to be on a team with one “buddy,” if they follow these guidelines:

1. You and your buddy must be in the same grade (boys), or same division (girls)2. Your buddy must also select you as a buddy.

If more than one buddy is selected, or if buddies do not match, the selection is invalid.Note: Volunteer coaches who would like to coach together must buddy their children together using this system or there will be no guarantee that they will coach together or that their children will be on the same team. Please do not bring in more than one buddy or a stack of registration forms asking us to put them all on one team. We cannot do this!

Team Assignments (Grades 7-8)Teams are assigned by The Parks & Recreation Department. We will try to assign teams according to the school each player attends. If more than one team from a school then there will be a draft. There are no “buddy requests,” but we will keep same gender siblings together upon request.

Volunteer Coaches Needed!To keep this program running we must find great coaches willing to volunteer their time for kids.

Resident Registration PriorityThe City of Redmond has established a policy giving registration priority to residents living or working within the Redmond City limits. The city limits weave along NE 116 to NE 124 St on the north, and approximately 186 Ave NE on the East. The western boundary weaves along 132 Ave NE until Bridle Crest Trail (NE 60th), then goes east to 148 Ave NE. The southern boundary varies. All 98053 zip codes are outside the city limits, as well as some 98052 zip codes. See page 48 for registration instructions and timelines.

Age RequirementsTo ensure a successful program experience for your child, program age requirements are established by the instructors and the recreation program coordinators. Appro-priate age requirements are determined for each program based on developmental guidelines and staff experience working with the children in each of the program areas. By staying firm on these age requirements, the integrity of the program is maintained for the children and families who are the correct age.

Disability AssistanceIf you have a disability and need an accommodation to fully participate in a class, please take the following steps:

1. Register for any and all classes in which you want to participate. You must meet all general class requirements to register for a class such as age, gender, and pre-requisites.

Holiday ClosuresThe Parks and Recreation office will be closed September 5, November 24-25 and December 23-26. Regular office hours are 8am-8pm, Monday through Friday.

Inclement Weather PolicyThe safety of program participants is of prime consideration when determining if programs should be canceled due to inclement weather. Programs meeting in school facilities will automatically be canceled if the schools are closed. Gener-ally programs offered in city facilities will also be canceled if the schools close. Weekend programs will be canceled at the discretion of the Recreation Division Manager or designee, if unsafe conditions exist. Cancellation information will be available on the department’s main line at 425-556-2300, and radio stations will be notified.
