I volunteer for a Youth Program that for the last 12 years has been teaching teens how to fly
- as a route to teaching leadership skills, responsibility, and self-esteem.
That organization (Air Time Canada) once in a while offers free adult classes. You'de spend a
day in a very fun 'groundschool' with lots of activities, games, group work, and laughing.
After groundschool you get to go in an airplane and try out what you learned (for real). You
would fly the airplane (except for takeoff and landing), do the radio work (talk with air
traffic control) and more.
It's an absolute blast - and it really is free. Honestly. They pay for the classroom,
instructor, snacks, lunch, aircraft, pilot, and fuel.
The flying part is optional. If you're a bit of a coward (like me) you don't have to do that
part. You can decide after the groundschool.
There is a class for adults on July 29 (Saturday). There are other dates and times to.

Stanley Park EcoWalk Tour is a fun and informative walk through Vancouver’s world class Stanley Park, a 1000 acre (402 hectare) nature preserve. The friendly guides give interesting information on the unique trees, plants, birds and animals as well as on the rich aboriginal First Nations culture and legends of the park. The walking pace is medium, taking 3 hours to complete and covering 8 kilometers, (5 miles) of relatively flat paved and graveled trails over selected seawall and forest paths. This walk is suitable for the whole family, including active seniors. Both visitors and residents of Vancouver who take the Stanley Park EcoWalk just love it; it sparks or renews their interest in the aboriginal First Nations culture and Canada’s unique West Coast ecology. Seeing Stanley Park without experiencing an EcoWalk Tour would be like visiting Paris without going up the Eiffel Tower. Don't miss either of these attractions.
