HHELLPS (Helping Hands to Enrich Learning & Lifestyles Programming Society) was founded to facilitate the acquisition of funding, on behalf of the Aspotogan Region, for the purpose of creating programming to meet the needs of the community.


Mission Statement
To determine, through input provided by community members, where enrichment may be provided to the community, and from that, develop programming, support, etc.  to compliment the identified needs.


Goals
To enrich the experiences available to community members.
To simplify our lives.
To keep it fun.

Our First Project!

HHELLPS has converted the former Through the Years building to a Community Centre. It will be used for programming and activities.         

        

Phase 1 - fitness equipment ($25/month Membership or $5 drop-in fee.    Registration required to access equipment.)

Phase 2 - toy library and community programming ($25/year for a family membership to the toy library or $2 drop-in fee. Access to toys and play space. Wow!)

                 

 

Circuit training equipment was first made available for use on February 16th, 2011.

* Fitness equipment is available for use and includes toning as well as cardio pieces.

Our multi-gym system handles up to 500 pounds!

Karma Yoga at the Fox Point Community Centre: Try Yoga! To promote the idea: “Try Yoga”, the Sail Loft Studio teachers are offering free classes at the Fox Point Community Centre during the week of March 12th-18th (March break) for all ages and abilities. The classes are one hour long, and will have different themes: Seniors (Chair Yoga available), “Absolute Beginners”, “Girls Only”, Family Yoga, and All Levels are a few of our ideas. We will be posting the schedule on line (www.freewheeling.ca/yoga/schedule ) and at the Community Centre, and have a sandwich board to advertise.

Spread the word!

(Subject to change as our numbers are growing and volunteers are lending helping hands!)

Monday   7:30 am to 3:30 pm

Tuesday  8:30 am to Noon & 6:30-7:30 pm
