T here is already so much for students to takein when they first walk into ColumbiaAssociation’s (CA) Youth and Teen Center,from the video games, computer lab and

small basketball court to the recreation room and itspool tables, air hockey, table tennis and board games.

And then they quickly learn that the YTC has — and means — so much more.

“We provide a fun and safe place for kids betweenthe ages of nine and 18 to be when they are not inschool,” said Rene Buckmon, CA’s manager of youth

and teen programs. “The Youth and Teen Centeralso engages them in constructive activities

so they can have an opportunity to better themselves,to learn, and to become productive citizens.”

Those opportunities come both in and beyond thedrop-in recreation program, which runs betweenMonday and Friday from 2:30 to 6pm during the

T ake Broken Land Parkway all the way from The Mall inColumbia for about three miles and you ultimately willarrive in the village of Kings Contrivance, thesouthernmost of Columbia’s 10 villages. Kings

Contrivance borders the Howard County communities of Jessup,North Laurel and Savage and is named after The KingsContrivance Restaurant, established in 1962 and housed in anhistoric home on what was once farmland.

As with much of Columbia, the names of our neighborhoodsand the streets within have historical or literary connections.Huntington comes from a house dating back to the late 17thcentury, and the street names are primarily from the works of CarlSandburg. MacGill’s Common was named after the original ownersof the land and the street names are taken from the folk songs thatappear in The Folk Songs of North America compiled by Alan Lomax. Dickinson and its streetsare named after poet Emily Dickinson; our village’s community center, Amherst House, is intribute to her hometown in Massachusetts.

But that is all history. Here is what’s going on today.Like the other villages, Kings Contrivance is attempting to engage with a broad-based group of

residents that includes everyone from young children to older adults. Amherst House, which sits inthe Kings Contrivance Village Center at 7251 Eden Brook Drive, is where many communityevents and meetings take place and which may be rented for private events such as weddings. Thereis a schedule of summer concerts in the village center on Thursday evenings through August 20.

Some of the community events held there include our Fall Flea Market and ScarecrowMaking on September 12 outside of Amherst House; Family Fun Bingo Nights; gardeningseminars; and activities centered around holidays, such as Halloween, Christmas and Easter.More information can be found at KingsContrivanceCommunityAssociation.org.

In the village of Kings Contrivance, CA owns and maintains 29 tot lots, 17 miles ofpathways, three pools, one basketball court (in MacGill’s Common) and 700 acres of openspace. Howard County Government owns and maintains Dickinson and Huntington parkslocated in the village, and nearby also are Gorman Park (Laurel) and Guilford and Savage parks(Savage). Patuxent Branch Trail is the main county trail, running from Lake Elkhorn in thevillage of Owen Brown through the village of Kings Contrivance, and continues across ahistoric bridge to Savage Park, near the landmark Bollman Truss Railroad Bridge.

The large, mature trees in the wooded area bordering the Middle Patuxent River on thesoutheast edge of Kings Contrivance provide extensive open space for residents. CA and thevillage association’s environmental committee are proud to join efforts twice a year to help keepthe village clean and beautiful, which makes it one of the many great places in Columbia to live,work and play.

Columbia YouthFitTeaches Overall Health for Families, ChildrenBy Tripp Laino

PHOTO BY RICH RIGGINSAbigail Hines, pictured with her mother, Cappy, called Columbia YouthFit a life changing program, teaching her to eat healthier.

Getting physically fit canbe a challenge, butwhen the goal is fitnessfor the whole family the

challenge can feel even greater.Columbia YouthFit aims to make

that task less challenging, providinginformation for parents and childrenabout healthier lifestyles — in thekitchen, the gym and beyond.

Cappy Hines and her daughter,Abigail, have been YouthFitparticipants three times, startingafter a referral from Abigail’spediatrician when she was about12, Cappy said. They were excitedabout the program as soon as theylearned more about it.

“We just fell in love,” Cappy said.“It was just perfect — a perfect fitfor Abigail as well as our family, andfor me.”

Shawni Paraska, CA’s director ofcommunity health sustainability,oversees YouthFit and helps parentsand children navigate the program.

Paraska said one of the main goalsof the program is to help parentsunderstand how to communicatewith their children about health,which can be a challenge.

“Often parents are so concernedabout their child’s weight that theyfocus only on that child,” Paraskasaid. “That one child won’t be ableto eat dessert, but the rest of thefamily will, or that one child ispushed to exercise while the rest ofthe family watches TV. Thisapproach is rarely effective and

leads to frustration and resentmentamong family members.”

YouthFit’s approach helps solvethose problems. Each week,parents and children learn similarnutrition themes and ways to makelifestyle changes. Parents learnthrough small group activities and discussion and children learnthrough games and physicalactivities, Paraska said. The games and activities are in a non-competitive environment,allowing children to enjoy physicalactivity without concern about

athletic prowess or knowledge of group sports.

But it’s more than just physicalactivity — YouthFit also focuses onnutrition as part of overall health.Cappy said one of the highlights ofthe program for her was a trip to agrocery store, where participantswere shown how to break downthe information on the labels.

“It was something you could useevery day and utilize in yourhome,” she said. “For me it wasn’ta lot of ‘We have to get rid of thisor adjust that.’ It was really not

dieting. Everything is more focusedon health.”

Abigail Hines said the programhas changed her life, helping herfocus on a more active, healthylifestyle. She’s even found a few newfavorite foods — zucchini, squashand asparagus — because of theprogram. Abigail also said sheappreciated the support she receivedin the program from Paraska andother members involved.

“Miss Shawni is really nice andsupports us, and the stuff we do isreally fun,” she said.

Columbia Art Center

School’s Out Series Offers Creative Learning

When school is out of session for aholiday or in-service day, it can be a challenge to find fun activities for students.

But Columbia Art Center’s School’s Out seriesaims to help by providing single-day sessionswhere students can learn art history and createtheir own pieces to take home. Monica Herber,daytime and youth program coordinator forColumbia Art Center, said the goal of theSchool’s Out series is to provide a range of stylesand media for budding artists.

“We come up with a theme for each session —we try to differentiate the skill sets as much aspossible and give students a wide variety of

activities that they wouldn’t necessarily do athome,” Herber said.

August’s session, “Teach Us How To Fly,” isfor children in first through eighth grades, runsAug. 17 through 21, and includes papier-machesculpture, mixed media sculpture, sand paintings,self portraits, and other options. Similar one-dayclasses will be offered throughout the school year.

“The emphasis is on learning something aboutculture and art history and tying that into theproject,” Herber said.

Manique Buckmon, a youth program assistantat the Art Center, said the lessons start with anintroduction to an artist, including their style ofwork and how they create, and then introducingchildren to materials in order to emulate it.

For Teach Us How To Fly’s mixed media birdsculptures, students will learn about BarbaraKobylinska’s bird sculptures before emulatingthem using water bottles and papier-mache. Thebirds tie into the “Up, Up and Away” session’stheme of air and space adventures.

“That’s connected with how we study birds,how they fly — it’s a way of connecting birds andaviation and flight by studying these particularbird sculptures,” Buckmon said.

School’s Out is just one of many programsColumbia Art Center offers for youth and teens toexplore their creativity. For more about ColumbiaArt Center, or to learn about upcoming School’sOut sessions or youth-oriented programming, visitColumbiaArtCenter.org.

It’s never too early to startthinking about summer2016! CA Camps offer avariety of options for youth and teens.

school year and from 2 to 7pm during the summer. While the YTC is a CA facility located in the Oakland Mills Village Center — in “The Barn” at5853 Robert Oliver Place — it is open to all ofColumbia and Howard County, with an annual

registration fee of just $25.Throughout the year, kids from CA’s middle school

and teen advisory committees plan for and then put onevents such as pool parties, singing competitions, videogame contests, basketball skills challenges and other

activities. In the summer, a series of trips takes students toamusement parks, beaches, cities and other places to enjoy and relax. There are enrichment programs thatgive kids exposure to the arts, as well asthe “For G.I.R.L.S. (GrowingInspiring Responsible young Ladiesfor Success) Only” and “Boys To Men” mentoring programs.

And there are volunteeropportunities as well, whether it’s helping people at the East

Columbia 50+ Center learn how to use iPads and othertechnological devices, running an annual clothing drive thatdistributes much-needed, gently-used items to more than 1,000area families, or assisting with distributing food to elderly residents.

“I never thought about how there were people who didn’thave clothes to wear,” said Kevin Baker, a 16-year-old fromKings Contrivance. “That was the first time I saw I was making adifference as a result of my involvement.”

Baker is now chairman of CA’s Teen Advisory Committee, whichorganizes activities and community service projects.

“We basically help teens in Columbia feel like there are events forthem and a place where they can come and hang out,” he said.

Lisa Minney’s family, including her son Enosh, moved to WildeLake from New Jersey in 2014 and soon learned about the YTC.Enosh, now 11, has been involved in its programming ever sinceand is looking forward to the events, particularly those for middleschoolers, once he begins 8th grade this fall.

“We didn’t have anything like this where we lived before,” LisaMinney said. “I love what they’re doing for my son. He’s gone thereand has blossomed even more than he had before.”

Buckmon noted that the YTC seeks to do more than just sponsorfun activities and events in a safe atmosphere. There’s also a goal ofinfluencing these youth and teens in the years beyond.

“We want them to be successful, however they define success,” shesaid. “Hopefully we steered them in that direction.”

COLUMBIAASSOCIATION

RELEASESFOURTHQUARTER

FINANCIALREPORT FOR FISCALYEAR

Columbia Association completed fiscal year 2015$3.7 million above the budgeted increase in netassets. While these results are very favorable, it isentirely attributable to lower than budgeted

expenses, of which more than $2.3 million, or 60 percent,is related to staffing issues that are temporary. Totalincome of nearly $65.6 million was $849,000, or 1.3percent, under budget for the year, and approximately$2.3 million, or 3.6 percent, higher than FY 14. Totaloperating expenses of almost $59 million were 7 percentbelow budget, and $993,000, or 1.7 percent, higher thanlast year. Highlights from several of CA’s departmentdirectors are below.

Communications and MarketingThe name of the former Membership Service Center has

been changed to Customer and Member Service Center toemphasize that CA serves all residents regardless of whetherthey are CA members or not.

The Communications and Marketing Department heldseveral major events in the fourth quarter of FY15, includingopen houses for CA Camps, Excite Columbia, the BiggestWinner Success Celebration and Columbia Cleanup Day.

The department also had multiple successful mediacampaigns, including the annual Sister Cities exchange,Dog Day Afternoon and online memberships, amongothers, in publications including Business Monthly,Chesapeake Home and Living, FOX 45, The WashingtonPost and Howard Magazine.

Administrative ServicesFY15 fourth quarter highlights for the Administrative

Services Department include the achievement of the Aa1issuer credit rating from Moody’s Investors Service, anupgrade from the previous rating of Aa2; implementationof a pay card program for team members; design,development and implementation of online membershipenrollment; installation and testing of the Inter-CountyBroadband Network high speed fiber network at theAthletic Club, Supreme Sports Club, Columbia Gym,Haven on the Lake and the Maintenance Facility;implementation of a major upgrade to the membershipsystem; and a reverse auction for supply of electricityresulting in electricity pricing 6 percent lower than thecurrent contract and for 100 percent renewable energy.

Open Space and Facility ServicesThe Open Space and Facility Services Department

completed the year $2.7 million under the FY15 budgetedamount for Increase/Decrease in Net Assets.

Noteworthy accomplishments during the fourthquarter of FY15 included the opening of the Hobbit’sGlen Golf Club Clubhouse in April, beginning

construction activities associated with the Dorsey HallMeeting Room Expansion in March, constructing thefirst two Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)compliant wading pools at Longfellow and FaulknerRidge and completing ADA renovations to theHawthorn and River Hill outdoor pool bathhouses.

Additionally, the department facilitated four WeedWarrior invasive plant projects that included replacement of invasive species with native vegetation, completedbathymetric surveys associated with the long-term lakemanagement plan and received an Energy Star Partner ofthe Year award for work in the Columbia community.

Sport and FitnessThe Sport and Fitness Department completed fiscal

year 2015 at $876,000 below budget and $108,000lower than fiscal year 2014.

The shortfall compared to budget and last year ismainly due to the delayed opening of Haven on the Lakeas fees income was less than budget and operating suppliesand repairs and maintenance were over budget. Theoutdoor pools, Athletic Club, Columbia Gym, SupremeSports Club, Ice Rink, and SportsPark all had strong fiscal performances and achieved budget.

Department highlights for the fourth quarter of FY15include the opening of the new Hobbit’s Glen Golf ClubClubhouse for operations, with very positive feedback fromgolfers, Columbia SportsPark and SkatePark opened for theseason with new equipment and a new Learn to SkateboardProgram, and preparations for the outdoor pools seasonwere completed for the Memorial Day weekend opening.

Community ServicesThe Community Services Department finished FY15

$258,000 better than budget. The positive variance overbudget is primarily due to small savings throughout manyof the expense lines as well as increased tuition andenrollment income from School Age Services due toincreased enrollment.

Some program highlights from FY15 include the Youthand Teen Center, participating in the Supper Club Programmanaged by the Maryland Food Bank, a federally fundedprogram that provides children with a nutritious meal as partof participation in after-school activities, Columbia Archives’ongoing celebration of the Life and Legacy of Jim Rouseon his centenary through exhibits, lectures, programs andpublicity, and signing the formal Sister City Agreementwith Tema, Ghana. A nine-person delegation came toColumbia from Tema in November 2014, after visitingNorfolk, its other sister city. Milton Matthews and theMayor of Tema signed the Sister Cities Agreement onNovember 11 at an event at Historic Oakland.
