PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
i n typical fall fashion, Mooredale is a hive of activity! Our nurturing preschool opened up its doors for
another exciting year, welcoming those arriving back from summer break and greeting warmly all of our new youngest members. Soccer and sports took to the field again, a new roster of fantastic programs were introduced and once
again, Soctoberfest was a hit with our adult soccer community and provided a great day of competition. On the homefront, two of our staff members recently entered parenthood: Stephanie Chu, Pool Manager and front desk staff, had a little boy, Hudson, and Chris Keem, Soccer Manager, welcomed a daughter, Carina, last week. Congratulations, best of luck and happy sleeping to both Steph and Chris! November marks the end of term for our Board of Directors as we prepare to vote in the proposed slate at our Annual General Meeting on Wednesday, November 18. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our Board members who will be departing: James McNee as Pool Director, a solid presence with a wealth of experience and insight, along with a keen sense of humour; Katharine Lake Berz who took on the Volunteer & Community Liaison role with such enthusiasm, organization and innovative ways to honour our volunteer base, the most critical aspect of Mooredale; Erik Mathiesen, our long-time Treasurer who always manages to churn out favourable reports and reassure us that the sky isn’t falling; Rachel Busbridge who will be moving out of the Preschool position and has provided extraordinary guidance and initiatives for our little people at Mooredale; and Shuchi Stanger as Past President, whose historical perspective is always greatly appreciated. As my two-year term as President comes to a close, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the Mooredale Board members for making my tenure such an enriching experience. I have loved every minute of it and credit must go to this amazing team for the extraordinary collaborative effort, hard work and good humour. Meetings are a pleasure to attend with lively discussion and support being the framework with which we have moved forward as a community organization. Mooredale occupies a very special corner of this city and I know that there are only great things in our future! Of course, Mooredale cannot operate without its dedicated staff. Joanna Ingram, Catherine Loeffler and Stephanie Chu provide friendly faces and ongoing support in the front office with all manner of administration; Susan Li remains our greatest asset in accounting and we welcome our new caretaker, Ignacio Mateo, who will take on the day-to-day tending of this big old house. Eric Musselman put together a banner summer for many day campers and continues to offer innovative programming for young and old alike; Chris Keem, Blake Koester and Breanna Van Abbema work hard to keep our soccer program among the best in the city and provide a wide variety of other sports to keep our youth active,
all year long. Carolyn Burgess and her competent preschool staff succeed at keeping Mooredale Preschool top of its class through a stimulating, thoughtful environment that focuses on mutual respect. The final shoutout goes to Marjorie Booth, our Executive Director, who deals with all and everything on a daily basis, always with a smile and with many years of wisdom. She steers the boat with confidence and enthusiasm and never wavers from her commitment to making Mooredale one-of-a-kind. Thank you, Marjorie, for allowing me to work so closely with you and see first-hand all that you do. You are a gift to our community. All the best to you and your families as we head into shorter days and colder temperatures. Enjoy the season ahead and never hesitate to reach out to all of us here at Mooredale! Best

Interested in becoming a Mooredale volunteer? Volunteering is a wonderful way to contribute and connect with our community and there are many ways to get involved at Mooredale. Mooredale Concerts needs volunteers to serve refreshments during concert intermissions for Sunday afternoon concerts. Enjoy classical music performances while volunteering. Please contact Esther Bogyo at
[email protected] for more information. Volunteers are also needed for Winter Wonderland on Saturday November 28. Bring your holiday spirit and have fun working with our pre-schoolers and their families. For more information about these or other volunteer opportunities at Mooredale please contact me at [email protected]. We would love to hear from you!
Update On Syrian Refugee Sponsors – Rosedale United Church
An outpouring of support from within the community, including many Mooredale members is leading to as many as 8 sponsorships being put in place in partnership
with the Refugee Committee of Rosedale United Church. With the experience of this group (47 sponsored refugees over past 15 years, including family recently arrived from Syria) and a standing sponsorship agreement with the federal immigration folks, community groups will have support and cooperation to move these acts of compassion along the complex path. Watch for details about a fundraising event set for Sunday November 8 at the church (‘5,000 Miles’) featuring top performing artists, some of whom will also be involved in the morning Remembrance service that day (‘This Sound Is Not The Fury’) with a special focus on the displacements of war. Thanks to so many for this promising hospitality, loving the neighbour as yourself. Ongoing updates will be posted at www.rosedaleunited.org

Marketing and SponsorshipKirk LynnDirECtOr OF MArkEtinG AnD SPOnSOrSHiP
the lifeblood of Mooredale is in our members being active in our events and day-to-day activities. We live and
breathe on the participation in our year-round myriad offerings, along with relying heavily on our tremendous volunteer base. Of course, the success of this model is dependent upon us building and running top-notch activities in a rather competitive Toronto marketplace, as well as in our
membership being made aware of what options are available for their family members. Mooredale currently uses several channels to build awareness and participation. In print, we utilize our Mooredale News newsletter, our Recreation and Camp guides and a number of flyers and bulletins. Online, we have our excellent website and several social media options. Coordinating all of these channels in a sophisticated manner allows us to reach our marketing and Association goals. While all of these cost funds to operate and the right mix can be difficult to build, they ultimately help us stay in communication with our members and partners. We also have a strong group of partners (Rosedale Tennis Club and Champion Tae Kwon Do to name just a couple) and a growing network of advertisers and sponsors. All of these groups are attracted to Mooredale due to the demographics of our membership and the activities we operate. Over 90% of our membership comes from the 8 postal codes that surround the Mooredale House and this area is comprised of educated, affluent, active families. It’s not the right market for every company but for some, we offer excellent fit and the opportunity to build brand awareness and engage in meaningful dialogue. When I joined the Mooredale board in 2014, I challenged all of my peers to become ambassadors for the marketing and sponsorship effort and I am now extending that offer to all members. I am asking everyone to think practically about:
a) how can you help attract new members to Mooredale?
b) what companies would want to advertise to our members?
c) what partners would you like to see us work with to make the Mooredale better?
Perhaps you own or work at a firm that would make a good partner or you do business in your personal life with a company whose services would be appealing to other Mooredale members. 7000 heads are better than one and personal relationships are the key to us getting a substantive discussion going with a potential partner. We have a wide number of appealing options to offer to our partners, including the cost, frequency and activity or method.
While we are going to pursue this effort in a discrete manner that respects the DNA of Mooredale, it is important that we continue to grow and plan for a healthy future. Should you have any interesting ideas or contacts that would benefit from some partnership information, please feel free to reach out to me. Many thanks,
Kirk Lynn, MSc. Director of Marketing and Sponsorship RMPA [email protected]

Preschool NewsCarolyn BurgessPrESCHOOL DirECtOr
And they wonder why it takes me so long to make my way from my Preschool office in the coach House to the Mooredale Administrative office in the Main House…
i suppose it really should only take 2 or 3 minutes… however the route takes me past each Preschool classroom and activity area, including the playground and on each journey, at least 3 or 4
per day, I just can’t help but make slight detours here and there, as there is always something exciting and engaging that draws me in. This morning I stopped to watch our Chickadee nursery children enjoying a music class with Mischi, each child dancing with autumn leaves in hand to light hearted music. Around the corner in the Kindergarten class, the children were donning their ‘pinnies’ in readiness for their walk to the local fire hall to deliver a wagon overflowing with items from their food drive. Down the stairs a short detour to the right and the children in the Chipmunk room are engaged in ‘circle’ activities, a quick stop in the kitchen to see what’s for lunch and then off through the playground, where the Toddlers are enjoying bubbles, sand play, trikes and song. Into the Main House and I have a brief visit in the Main House nursery class, where the children are in the midst of their French class avec Mlle Juliana. Finally, I make my way up the stairs to the office
… and that’s why it takes me so long to make my way to the Main House Administra-tive office.
And it’s not too late to join us for the current school year! We’ve opened a few additional spaces in our morning Nursery and Kindergarten classes as well as our Afternoon Toddler program. Please contact the Preschool office for more information.
Preschool Registration for September 2016 begins Wednesday January 20, for new families. Details, forms and schedules will be available on our website www.mooredale.com, as well as at the Mooredale Main House Office within the next few days. We invite you to join us for a tour and see our current program in action. Please contact the preschool office to arrange your visit, 416-922-3714 ext. 113 or [email protected]

Winter Programs @ MooredaleWhat’s in a Community Centre?
Building a strong sense of community… Common setting to congregate… Open to all who live in the area… Encountering others with common interests…
These are all characteristics we hope to build into all our Mooredale programs as we strive to reach our mission of being a focal point in the community. Participating in Mooredale programs is just as much about the ‘Who’ as the ‘What’!
Got an Idea?Our best and longest running programs usually start from a suggestion from a Mooredale member. Do you have an idea for a program that the community would benefit from or that you would like to see for your family? Be sure to let us know! Email us today at [email protected] or call 416-922-3714 x 105
6 Ways to Connect with Your Community this Winter at Mooredale
9:30 Workout with Rebecca Bell: Come on in out of the cold, and feel good while doing it! There are fitness classes Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings, and a Pilates class on Thursday. Sign up for one or all four! Meet some other ladies from the neighbourhood and strengthen your body at the same time. Remember that how you treat your body today is the best way to ensure your health twenty years from now!
Creative Movement: Creative Movement uses structure and free movement to help each child discover his or her body’s capabilities. With Interplay School of Dance instructor Miss Natalia, children will discover the magical world of dance, how their bodies react to music and how much fun they can have trying to master it.
Learn to Ski: Our popular Learn to Ski program for 4 – 12 year olds will return this winter, in partnership with Earl Bales Ski & Snowboard Centre. The classes will run Wednesday and Thursday evenings with bussing provided from Mooredale and Whitney Public School. An optional supper from Summerhill Market will once again be provided.
Learn to Skate: Starting November 30* at Rosedale Park, the popular Learn to Skate program is back on Mondays and Wednesdays after school. Performance Skating Schools is back this winter to provide lessons in a fun, safe, learning atmosphere for beginners, intermediates and adults. *weather permitting.
Music Lessons: Music lessons for children, youth and adults are happening at Mooredale House every Monday – Thursday. Join us for violin (Monday), piano (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday), and guitar (Wednesday) this winter. Adults also welcome! Check with our office staff to find out available lesson times.
12:30 Preschool programs: Lunch time has become our most popular program time of the day here at Mooredale. There are several different options to choose from during the week including Creative Movement, Lego Engineering, Monkeynastix, Intro to Tennis, Little Traveler’s Club, and French Lessons.

Pool Notes James McNee – CHAir, SWiMMinG POOL CLUBOn BEHALF OF tHE SWiMMinG POOL CLUB EXECUtiVE
Even In The off Season our Pool Doesn’t Sleep!
i bet, like me, you have one of those pieces where we’ve just added another coat of paint over an old coat over an even older
and so on and so on. Finally you strip the thing down to the base and can’t believe how
wonderful it looks. In September they “diamond ground” all those coats of paint off our pool (all the way back to the 1970s!) and we’ll start 2016 with a brand new finish! Speaking of the off season… If you know anyone interested in joining the Pool, now is the perfect time for them to get on the waiting list. In past years we might have had a long wait but right now only a few names are on the list – I can (almost) guarantee that anyone on the wait list today can be swimming next Spring. There is no cost and no obligation. Anyone interested should call 416-922-3714 x 100. And one last bit of news… On October 21 we held our Pool Club Annual Meeting and members elected a Pool Club Executive team of returning and new volunteers to offer advice and support to our staff colleagues. I am thrilled to report Kedrin Case is the new Chair of the committee. In the next months Kedrin will keep you posted on the 2016 staff team and all the improvements and changes for next year. Thanks to the staff, volunteers and pool members who provided me such support as Pool Chair. All the best for the holidays. And don’t let the winter get you down. Before you think of it we’ll be getting ready for swimming in 2015. Now... remember to put your pool membership cards in a safe place... you’ll be needing them in just a few months!

We’d like to thank our staff, participants, and sponsors – Amsterdam Brewery, Junction Craft Brewery, Civello, Toronto FC/ MLSE, and GP8 – for making the tournament a great success. Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to all who came out to the tournament and the post-tournament gathering as well! Hope to see you all next year!

It marked the end to yet another successful outdoor soccer season, with both Riverdale Park and Rosedale Park playing host to some excellent games. Our U4 to U10 divisions enjoyed a final day of games at Rosedale Park, and were treated to some tasty snacks provided by our returning division sponsors Forest Hill Orthodontics and Tim Hortons.

This year, we presented Nick Thadaney with the Volunteer Appreciation Award, recognizing him for coaching 10+ teams in the various sports offered here at Mooredale. In attendance at our Volunteer Appreciation event was Ron Smale, the president of the Ontario Soccer Association, who awarded Mooredale Soccer Club with the OSA’s Club Excellence Silver Award. Mooredale SC was also awarded this season with a donation from the Canadian Soccer Association’s Mondelez Pride and Joy Campaign. We’re honoured to have received these awards, and look forward to continuing our efforts to provide quality soccer programs for our members!
It was a gorgeous sunny day on Sunday, September 20 for the 35th Annual Terry Fox Run for Cancer Research in Rosedale – Moorepark.
Over 320 participants and volunteers ran, walked, rolled and biked on a lovely Sunday afternoon.
This year we were joined by cancer survivors and cancer researchers who wore red and purple t-shirts. Many people were running in support of someone they know who is fighting cancer, and others in memory of a loved one.
A number of volunteers were exceptional in their fund-raising efforts, contacting many people and raising significant contributions.
In the courageous spirit of Terry Fox himself, the man who ran a marathon every day on his historic fundraising run 35-years ago, each and every participant and volunteer made a difference.
It looks as though our funds raised have surpassed those of 2014 by at least 10%. In Ontario alone we are looking at having raised over $12 million dollars this year. Great effort everyone and see you next year!

perfect blend of sound, precision, lightness and wit, the Calmus Ensemble has forged a refined sound, which few a cappella groups achieve. Its five Leipzig musicians – Anja Pöche, soprano; Sebastian krause, countertenor; tobias
Pöche, tenor; Ludwig Böhme, baritone; and Manuel Helmeke, bass – have won a string of international prizes and competitions, including the ECHO Klassik and Supersonic Award. In 2010, they made their Carnegie Hall debut. Naturally at home in the vocal music of the Renaissance, Baroque and Romantic periods, they also explore modern repertoire. They are prolific artists having recorded 16 CD’s in various genres.
“Calmus Ensemble is stunning in its vocal variety, mastery. The group held the audience… spellbound with its artistry…
in matters of pitch, diction and musical shaping, I’ve never heard finer ensemble singing.” – THE WASHINGTON POST
Hard on the heels of its highly successful 2014 recording, Madrigals of Madness – which made the New York Times’ Top 10 CD list – Calmus performs selections from its newest CD, Christmas Carols of the World. The selections will shine a spotlight on timeless and classical creations from the Renaissance to the present day. Some are sacred, some are secular, and some even humorous and entertaining – all woven in the theme of a popular holiday tradition. A sampler from the 18 works they will perform include:

Considered by many to be supreme, England’s London Haydn Quartet was born out of a passion for the composer. Formed in 2001, they strive to emulate pure 19th Century sound through their use of gut strings and classical bows. Adding to their uniqueness, they collaborate regularly with clarinetist Eric Hoeprich with whom they recorded the Brahms and Mozart quintets on the Glossa label. As a quintet, they have performed at the Concertgebouw, the Library of Congress, Yale University as well as appearances in Switzerland, France, Germany and Czech Republic. American Eric Hoeprich has specialized in performing on historical clarinets. He has performed as a soloist with early music conductors such as Sir Roger Norrington and Christopher Hogwood.
“The musicians imbued both works with myriad details of shading and contrast, and beautifully calibrated phrasing.”
– NEW YORK TIMES
“Gut strings sometimes mean sour intonation, but not with this superb British group…they explore…repertoire with
a light touch and kaleidoscopic colours…crammed with subtle pleasures.” – CD REVIEW, THE TIMES
They will perform three wondrous gems from the chamber music repertoire: Mozart’s Clarinet Quintet in A Major, k. 581, Op. 108, Haydn’s String Quartet in Bb Major, Op. 50, no.1, and Beethoven’s String Quartet in D Major, Op. 18, no. 3.
MUSiC & trUFFLES: Young audiences will enjoy the hour-long, interactive versions of these concerts taking place on the same day, at the same location from 1:15 – 2:15pm. Our new host “Joanna” will encourage audience participation and appreciation. Adults wanting to learn more about music and music making are also welcome. Everyone receives a Lindt chocolate truffle at the end. Sweet! Tickets for Calmus Ensemble are $40 adult/senior, $20 for under age 30. Tickets for London Haydn Quartet are $30 adult/senior, $20 for under age 30. Music & Truffles tickets are $13 per person.
