Background Report to Redding City Council Apri115, 2026 Re: 4.6(a)--Grant-Boating and Waterways Page 2 The mission of the Division of Boating and Waterways is to provide safe and convenient public access to California`s waterways and leadership in promoting the public's right to safe, enjoyable and environmentally sound recreational boating. As part of its mission, the Division of Boating and Waterways manages the Aquatic Center Grant Program to enhance boaters' knowledge of boating laws, practical handling of vessels on the water, weather and water conditions, rules of the road, equipment requirements and environmental stewardship. Funding is provided to organizations that offer on-the-water training to the general public. Since 2005, the City's Redding Recreation Division has received annual grant funding from Cal Boating to provide Redding youth with scholarships for safe boating programs (kayaking, sailing, stand up paddling) intended to teach boating skills that will keep youth safe in, on and around the water. Approximately 600 of Redding's youth will benefit from these scholarships. The City Attorney's Office has reviewed and approved the grant agreement. EnviNonmental Review This is not a project defined under the California Environmental Quality Act, and no further action is required.

Objective 1 -Targeted Boating Safety Education Approach (Page 1) The organization is specifically set up to enhance boating safety as part of its main mission and has the ability to help DBW provide boating education courses. �. What is the primary goal of your organization as defined in your mission statement? The City of Redding Recreation Division is steadfast in its commitment to enhancing community health and public safety. With a population of 90,088 residents and a regional service area of over 200,000 people, we strive to provide equitable access to high-quality recreational and educational programming. Our community, nestled on the Sacramento River in Shasta County, is uniquely defined by its proximity to world-class waterways, including Whiskeytown Lake and Shasta Lake. These geographical features not only make water safety a program but a critical public necessity. Our primary goal is to prevent drowning, ensuring all individuals, especially our youth, have the skills to be safe and confident in, on, and around the water. Our commitment to water safety is best demonstrated by our unique Boating Safety Program, the only public provider of such education in Shasta County for over 18 years. This comprehensive program, which has evolved from an introductory kayaking class, now includes stand-up paddling and youth sailing. It offers a proven model that starts with instruction in the safe, controlled environment of the Redding Aquatic Center, before moving to open water at Whiskeytown Lake. Our unique approach effectively builds confidence and competency, making our program a valuable asset to the community. To date, our program has been a resounding success: • Since 2012, our youth sailing camps have engaged over 2,000 children. • Our Introduction to Kayak Safety program has served another 2,000 children through summer camps and school field trips. Our commitment to expanding access to water safety is unwavering. We have consistently broadened our reach through strategic partnerships with the Whiskeytown National Recreation Area, the Redding Yacht Club, and the California Division of Boating and Waterways. These partnerships, along with the provision of critical scholarship funds, have paved the way for a more inclusive and safer boating community. Objective 1 -Targeted Boating Safety Education Approach (Page 2) 2. Describe the strengths of your boating safety program that highlight the value you provide to the public. (Why should someone take a course from your organization rather than from a competitor? What makes your program stellar?).This is an opportunity for you to showcase the strengths and boating safety expertise within Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:9 of 77 Exhibit A your program. Redding Recreation is the premier provider of boating safety education in Northern California, distinguished by our unique curriculum, legendary instructional expertise, and proven, long-term commitment to community impact. Adaptive Curriculum: Our student-focused approach enables us to deliver in-depth, relevant safety training for participants of all abilities. Our students acquire practical, hands-on skills tailored to the crafts they are most likely to use, making our training more effective and directly applicable to their on-water experiences. World-Class, innovative Instruction: Our greatest strength is our instructors, who are pioneers in the field. �eading our sailing program is Mike Strahle, a community champion with over 30 years of passion and a national reputation for innovation. After a spinal cord injury, Mike's determination led him to invent and patent the trapseat, a revolutionary device that made sailing accessible for people with disabilities. This spirit of inclusivity is woven into every course we teach. Under Mike's leadership, we don't just teach sailing; we instill a passion for safe, accessible boating for all people, regardless of physical ability or background. Our"learn by doing" methodology ensures students are actively engaged, retaining critical safety knowledge through direct experience. A Trusted Record of Success and Partnership: Our reputation is built on a stellar safety record and a proven track record of delivering results. This credibility has made us the trusted partner of major institutions, such as the Shasta County Office of Education. For nearly two decades, our partnership with DBW has been a force multiplier, allowing us to equip and provide scholarships for thousands of Northern California youth. This sustained success has been recognized by leading authorities, who have named us a Top Health & Safety Provider by the American Red Cross (2025) and one of the top training providers in the entire Northern Territory. In summary, Redding Recreation offers a specialized, accessible, and proven program, delivered by inspiring experts, that creates a more inclusive and safer boating community for everyone. Objective 1 -Targeted Boating Safety Education Approach (Page 3} Oeganization demonstrates targeted approach to identified boating safety education needs and utilizes curriculum that addresses those needs 3.a. List up to three significant boating safety problems affecting boaters at large that you have identified in your general area. (Covid-19 issues,fires, or problems specific to your organization such as staffing shortages or trainings,that do not affect boaters at large are outside the scope of this question). For each safety problem identified in 3.a, how did you determine that the identified problems were significant? Our community is currently grappling with three significant and interconnected boating safety problems that have far-reaching consequences for the broad boating public. These issues, identified through a careful review of incident data and direct observation, not only pose immediate risks to boaters but also have long-term implications for the safety and sustainability of our waterways. The first critical problem is the high incidence of boating under the influence (BUI) and related accidents. We determined the significance of this issue by analyzing accident reports from the California State Parks Division of Boating and Waterways and law enforcement data from the Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area. This review consistently identifies alcohol and drugs as primary contributing factors in the most severe and fatal accidents on our local waterways. The second major problem that we must address is the critical lack of access to boating safety Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:10 of 77 Exhibit A education for the general public. Our market scan for official courses approved by the California DBW and U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary revealed a significant gap in our region. With an annual boater volume exceeding 85,000 launches, the absence of comprehensive boating safety curricula creates a widespread knowledge deficit in safe vessel operation and navigation rules. We need to urgently bridge this educational gap to ensure the safety of our boating community. The third significant problem that we need to address is the consistently low life jacket(PFD)wear rates among key demographics. Our review of state fatality reports and observational surveys at popular launches on the Sacramento River consistently show that fewer than 20% of observed adults on motorized boats were wearing a PFD. This empirical evidence underscores the need for a cultural shift towards embracing this most fundamental safety practice, which can significantly reduce the risk of fatalities. Objective 1 -Targeted Boating Safety Education Approach (Page 4) 3.b. How does the material covered in the course curriculums that you offer directly address these identified problems? Provide specific examples of material in your curriculum(s)that directly relate to the issues described in 3.a. The American Red Cross Basic Water Rescue and Small Craft Safety Course is designed to be practical and hands-on. Developed through a combined effort of the American Red Cross, the American Camping Association, and the Girl Scouts U.S.A., the curriculum provides individuals with the information and skiils they need to prevent, recognize, and respond to small craft emergencies and basic boat handling skills. The program also prepares participants for safe outings on the water by teaching them how to protect themselves while assisting others. Practical practice sessions, clear direction, uninterrupted practice time, positive instructor reinforcement, focused corrective feedback, and encouragement ensure that participants are well-prepared and capable. By mastering the skills taught through our kayaking, SUP, and sailing courses, participants can become competent and confident boaters, addressing the high risk of boating-related injuries in Shasta County.The Small Craft Safety Course is designed with a core lesson and one or more components that can be tailored to different types of watercraft, such as kayaks, sailboats, or SUPs. This flexibility allows the course to be adapted to suit the needs and interests of a diverse range of participants. The core lesson includes thirty-one safety topics, including float plans, accident prevention, lifejacket fitting, hazards, rules of the road, etc. The curriculum's robust emphasis on lifejackets for instructors and participants is a key feature. While there is not room here to provide a list of all thirty-one lesson topics in this space, the specific curriculum can be reviewed if desired. Redding Recreation has made a significant commitment to promoting water safety by waiving the Course Record Fee for the Small Craft Safety Course and Basic Water Rescue Course. This agreement not only reduces the cost of the courses but also helps provide equitable access to the youth who participate in them. It's a testament to our dedication to making these vital courses accessible to all. The Small Craft Safety Course is designed to be taught with a core lesson combined with one or more components based on what craft is being used (kayak, sailboat, SUP). The course can be taught with any number of components. The core lesson includes thirty-one safety topics, including float plans, accident prevention, lifejacket fitting, hazards, rules of the road, etc. The curriculum is very robust in its emphasis on lifejackets for instructors and participants, which is why it was chosen. While there is no room here to provide a list of all thirty-one lesson topics in this space, the full program curriculum can be supplied if desired.

Conducting Evaluation&Implementing Improvements 11.a Identify a program improvement that was implemented in the last calendar year: Note: improvements can be either boating safety or administrative in nature but should have made your organization safer or more efficient in a measurable way. Do not repeat answers from previous applications unless you have further refined a process mentioned previously. One of the biggest strengths of our youth sailing program is our instructor. Our program is headed up by Mike Strahle, who has served our community with immense knowledge and passion for sailing for over 30 years, and was named Champion of the Community in 2020 by the California Parks and Recreation Society. After a life-changing injury that left him paralyzed in 1985, Mike's enthusiasm for sailing was unquenchable and led him to invent and patent the first trapseat, a device that helps disabled sailors to sit up and steer their craft. This invention led to the first Pan- Pacific Trapseat Cup in 1989, and what followed was a successful racing career. Mike has championed sailing for all people, especially youth, and has created a program that is accessible Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:17 of 77 Exhibit A and has a low barrier to entry. The sailing program provides experiential learning opportunities that actively engage students. This year, our beloved instructor experienced a health scare that left him incapacitated, and we feared we would lose him. Fortunately, he was able to rally, but his fragile health sidelined him for the summer, and we, along with the sailing community at Whiskeytown Lake, faced the question, "How do we make sure that the programs Mike has championed keep going even if he is not at the helm?" The health scare of our lead instructor revealed a critical vulnerability in our youth sailing program: its dependence on a single individual. This crisis forced us to confront the very real possibility of program cancellation, threatening the accessible, experiential learning we provide. In direct response, Redding Recreation and the Redding Yacht Club partnered to implement a strategic plan that has fundamentally strengthened the program's safety, efficiency, and long-term viability. We immediately identified and deployed interim instructors, ensuring the summer schedule was not just maintained but augmented, guaranteeing service continuity for our youth. More importantly, we developed a formalized plan for instructor development for the 2026 season and beyond. This initiative moves the program from being person-dependent to system-dependent, proactively embedding Mike's unparalleled knowledge of safety protocols and adaptive sailing into a sustainable structure. The measurable results are a significant reduction in operational risk, the elimination of a single point of failure for safety and instruction, and the creation of a resilient framework that ensures this vital community resource will continue to serve all youth, regardless of future challenges.

What did the assessment identified in 11.b reveal that prompted you to make an improvement? What were the measurable benefits since implementation? The measurable benefits of our strategic assessment are clear and impactful. By proactively addressing our reliance on a single instructor, we transformed a moment of unexpected crisis into an opportunity for resilience. The immediate outcome was the successful delivery of our 2025 summer program to 120 youth sailors without canceliation, despite the unforeseen absence of our lead instructor. Furthermore, our new instructor development plan has created a tangible pipeline to certify three new instructors by the 2026 season, thereby directly increasing program capacity and mitigating the risk of future disruptions. This initiative also ensures the critical institutional knowledge of safety and adaptive sailing techniques is formally documented and standardized, leading to a consistent, high-quality experience for all participants. Ultimately, these steps have fortified the program's foundation, guaranteeing we can continue to provide accessible, experiential learning for years to come.

Instructions for Creating Equipment Worksheets Each of the following items must be entered in separate worksheets. They should not be listed in a combined category such as one of the Supplies categories. Any boats,trailers,engines, modular docking,or storage sheds listed in a combined Supplies category will be disqualified.Additionally, do not create a category called Paddling Equipment and then list SUPs, Kayaks, etc. on a single worksheet. These requests will be disqualified. Requests Requiring a Separate Worksheet • Boats All requests for boats must each have a separate worksheet.All boats are subject to this rule including motorized boats, sailboats, and any type of paddle craft. o If,for example,you are requesting 8 sailboats,you will list them together on a single worksheet. If additionally, you are also requesting 10 kayaks,the kayaks must have their own worksheet. Combining the two requests on a single worksheet will result in a disqualification of both requests. o If you are requesting a kayak that includes seat backs and paddles as a set,those items can be combined with the kayak in the same line item. However, if you are just requesting several seat backs or paddles to replace worn ones already in your inventory, list those requests in the Supplies-ReplacementlRefurbishment Items category. • Engines o You may combine an engine with boat in a single worksheet if they will be used together as a set. Otherwise, list all engine purchases on a separate worksheet. o If you are requesting multiple engines of the same type for a similar use, you may combine them into a single worksheet. • Trailers You may combine a trailer with a boat if they will be used together as a set. Otherwise,trailers belong on a separate worksheet. Note: Trailer does not mean a dolly. • Modular pocking o Non-permanent modular docking is allowable in this grant. Requests for docking must be on a separate worksheet. Do not combine them in a general request for supplies. • Storage Sheds o Non-permanent storage sheds are allowed in this grant. Requests for storage sheds must be on a separate worksheet. Do not combine them in a general request for supplies. Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:21 of 77 Exhibit A Combined Supply Categories You may combine smaller requests for supplies into a single worksheet if the justification and general use are similar.The following combined supply categories are available to use. On the cost estimate worksheet, keep the combined items together as a single(e.g.: Supplies-Safety Items) Then, in the notes section, list each individual item and approximate amount and cost per type of item. Supplies-Replacement/Refurbishment Items. This category can contain supplies-replacement sails, rudders, masts, paddles, etc.that are being requested to replace worn out items. It should not include an entire boat,or requests to outfit anew boat. If,for example,you are requesting new sailboats and as part of that request, you would be purchasing items such as masts, rudder, sails,that go specifically with that boat or boat fleet purchase,you may combine them in the boat worksheet, as they will have similar use and justification. Supplies-Safety Items. This category is for items such as life jackets,flares, radios,first aid items, etc. This category is NOT for listing things like a Safety boat. That item belongs in its own category with its own justification. Supplies-Miscellaneous Items- These are supplies that do not fit into the other supply categories. The grouped items should have a similar justification. If you are unsure whether to separate or group items,contact DBW staff to get clarity and avoid possible disqualification.

Method(s) used to establish financial need Method(s) used to establish financial Introduction to Kayak Safety need 4. What methods do you use to establish either the financial or safety need for scholarship requests? Financial: List the methods that you use to determine needs for awarding scholarships. Financial examples might include using the free lunch program, Title One schools, income tax verification, etc. Safety Need: If you are awarding scholarships based on safety, explain why lowering the cost of a particular course or courses at your center benefits boating safety education. Is a particular type of boating causing accidents, etc. Use supporting documentation,such as accident statistics or other safety information to further establish need. The financial need in our community is significant and well-documented. Shasta County has one of the highest child poverty rates in California, with 1 in 4 children living below the poverty line. Our program's data, which indicates that 68% of our participants require fee assistance, plays a crucial role in identifying and addressing this need. This need is verified through the county-administered Alternative Payment Program (APP), which requires family income to be at or below 70% of the state median income. This threshold is notably lower than the 85% standard used for the National School Lunch Program, confirming that the children we serve are among the most economically disadvantaged. Redding Recreation is an approved childcare provider for families eligible for childcare assistance from Shasta County Social Services through the Alternative Payment Program. Based on our numbers from the 2024 Summer Adventures Day Camp Program, 68% of the children enrolled received fee assistance based on their income level or enrollment in government assistance programs through the Shasta County Office of Education, such as CaIWORKs, the School-to-Work Program, the free or reduced lunch program, and cash aid. This assistance is capped at a specific dollar amount, and requiring families to pay an additional $40 to $125 to participate in our boating safety programs would present financial hardship and be a barrier to access for the families we serve. Providing this safety training addresses a critical need. Many of our participants have their first-ever boating experience with us, and with new state laws requiring boater education, it is vital to instill safe habits early. Our program directly supports the DBW's mission to provide 'training for underserved populations' and 'basic boating safety education,' preparing a new generation of responsible boaters and mitigating future accidents on our local waterways. Introduction to Kayak Safety curriculum into current youth day camp programs, without requiring increased program fees for participants, many of whom come from economically under-resourced backgrounds. By incorporating Introduction to Kayak Safety into the Summer Adventures Day Camp program and our Shasta County Office of Education school field trip program, we can offer participants high-quality boating safety education. This education is not just about learning to kayak; it's about instilling a sense of responsibility and safety that will last a lifetime for these children. Scholarships that are applied to all participants also allow bus transportation for whole groups through the pre-negotiated contract we have in place with the Redding School District. Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:28 of 77 Exhibit A 5. How have you determined there is sufficient demand to use all the scholarship funding you are requesting? The City of Redding Recreation Division takes a proactive approach in assessing the demand for scholarship funds by conducting a thorough analysis of both historical and real-time data. Leveraging our CivicRec registration software, our staff can produce detailed reports on past family participation in programs and monitor the number of financial aid applications that have been approved. Furthermore, we look into historical enrollment data to uncover significant trends in scholarship usage and factor in school district enrollment numbers as well. This data analysis is complemented by reviewing previous program waitlists, which consistently highlight a larger-than- average representation of low-income and scholarship-eligible participants in our subsidized programs. This insight alerts us to an unmet need for financial assistance. g. Percentage of the course that involves on-the-water boating safety education as 60.00 opposed to classroom based or other non-boating safety elements such as environmental education, ecology, etc. Demonstrate establishment of total cost per student 7 a_ Complete the chart to demonstrate how you established the total cost per student for this course. (This should add up to total cost, not the amount of scholarship funding you are requesting.) NOTE: Itemize the expenses that were used to calculate the cost of this course. Not all categories in the chart below maybe relevant to your program costs. If a particular category does not apply, please leave it blank. If you have additional cost categories not listed, please list them in the"Other"category. T e of Ex ense Cost Personnel 318.72 Overhead facilit /location related 120.00 Insurance Trainin Marketin Other Total Cost Per Student 438.72 7 b_ Provide any explanation of costs as needed. The City of Redding's requested scholarship funding of$40 per participant directly offsets the significant personnel costs associated with providing a safe, high-quality instructional experience. This subsidized rate is calculated based on instruction hours for dedicated staffing utilizing two Recreation Instructors and two Recreation �eaders, as defined by the City's official pay scale. While the true, fully burdened cost of delivering this program, which includes employee benefits, insurance, and facility overhead, is substantially higher, the$40 scholarship represents a critical investment that makes participation more accessible. This contribution ensures we can maintain our standard of small-group instruction and supervision while removing financial barriers for youth in our community, allowing the program to focus on positive outcomes rather than cost recovery. 1.

Is a particular type of boating causing accidents, etc. Use supporting documentation,such as accident statistics or other safety information to further establish need. Redding Recreation's boating safety programs are targeted to all members of the public and seek to list courses that appeal to all age groups and segments of the population in Shasta County and surrounding communities. Course registration is open to anyone interested in boating activities for recreation, sport, or work. These programs have also been integrated into Redding Recreation's Summer Day Camp program, offered to children aged eight to 13 years. At this time, Redding Recreation's sailing program has been targeted at youth, and the intention is to keep this program youth-focused. All of the courses offered can be customized for people with disabilities. Students can participate in regular program offerings, or, upon request, classes can be organized for groups with special requests or needs. Most of the program participants take part in the Alternative Payment Program administered by the Early Childhood Services Agency of Shasta County, which is a parental choice program that serves children ages 0-10 years for parents while they work,job search, or are in training. Eligibility is determined according to need, the size of the family, and gross monthly income. Families may choose from various child care settings: child care centers, licensed family child care homes, a friend, family member, or a neighbor(license-exempt), or organized day camp programs like those offered through Redding Recreation. This Federal and State-funded program is available to families that meet income and need eligibility guidelines. Redding Recreation knows that the children need assistance since they qualify for the Alternative Payment Program (APP), a federal and state-funded program for families that meet eligibility guidelines. For income, eligibility total countable income must be at or below 70% of the state median income based on family size. To determine eligibility, the APP requires one full month of original pay stubs and proof of other countable income at initial enrollment, recertification of benefits, or update. The Redding Recreation Fee Assistance program is another tool used to determine need and is used to collect basic information about the individual requesting scholarship funds. Applicants must be youths, 17 years or younger, and be Redding residents. Fee assistance may be used for youth programs only. The request form includes participant contact information and household information such as the number of individuals living in the home, the estimated gross annual income, and head of household information. 5. How have you determined there is sufficient demand to use all the scholarship funding you are requesting? .The City of Redding Recreation Division takes a proactive approach in assessing the demand for scholarship funds by conducting a thorough analysis of both historical and real-time data. Leveraging our advanced CivicRec registration software, our staff can produce detailed reports on past family participation in programs and monitor the number of financial aid applications that have been approved. Furthermore, we examine historical enrollment data to identify significant trends in scholarship usage, as well as current school district enrollment numbers. This data analysis is complemented by reviewing previous program waitlists, which consistently highlight a larger-than- average representation of low-income and scholarship-eligible participants in our subsidized programs. This insight highlights an unmet need for financial assistance. Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:31 of 77 Exhibit A g.

The City of Redding's request for a $50 scholarship per participant is a carefully calculated subsidy that directly supports the essential personnel required to deliver a high-quality, safe, and impactful recreational program. This rate is structured to offset the core instructional costs of a four-hour session, staffed by three Recreation Instructors to ensure the safety of participants and prevent them from coming into contact with the pool walls, and two Recreation Leaders, in accordance with the City's established pay scale. While this scholarship does not cover the full cost of the program, which includes employee benefits, facility usage, and necessary equipment, it represents a vital partnership that makes the program financially accessible. Scholarships of$50 per student directly bridge the gap between the actual cost of delivery and participant affordability, ensuring we can provide a superior instructor-to-student ratio and focus on achieving positive outcomes for all involved. 1.

Describe how this specific course advances boating safety education by providing the following information: A. Target Audience: Clearly describe the target audience for this course. Our target audience is any young person between the ages of 6-13 in Redding who needs boating safety education but whose family lacks the disposable income to afford the full program cost, ensuring this critical safety training is accessible to all. B. Target Audience: Why is it important that this audience receives this specific boating safety instruction? For Shasta County youth, our lakes and rivers are their backyard.A boating safety course is essential,targeted prevention for a high-risk group in a high-risk environment. It provides lifesaving skills in self-rescue, emergency response, and safe practices, empowering them to safely enjoy the county's defining natural resources and creating a lasting culture of water safety. C. Course Objectives: Upon completion of this course,what new skills will the student have? The Introduction to Kayak Safety program aims to provide thorough instruction on essential kayaking skills, enabling students to benefit from these skills and stay safe in, on, and around the water. The skills involved fall into two categories: basic boat-handling skills to move the craft, and self-rescue techniques. Basic boat handling skills and injury prevention are the foundation of the class since accidents can arise from all human-powered craft. D. Curriculum Examples: Give 2-3 examples of how you incorporate the items you checked in 9 a-c into your curriculum and their importance. In Whiskeytown Lake's cold, often windy waters,three skills are vital for safety: 1. Capsize&Rescue Drill: Rehearsing a wet exit and partner-assisted rescue is the top priority. It transforms panic into a calm procedure, critical for surviving sudden immersion in Whiskeytown lake's chilly water. Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:44 of 77 Exhibit A 2. Situational Awareness: Students learn to constantly scan for hazards?afternoon wind on the lake, boat wake, or strainers(downed trees). Seeing danger early is the key to avoiding it. 3. Effective Boat Control: Efficient forward strokes and sweep turns provide the power to fight wind and the agility to dodge obstacles. Good control keeps you from being at the environmenYs mercy. These skills build a foundational safety triangle: survive a capsize, see hazards coming, and steer clear of trouble. E. Best Takeaways: What are the most important skills a student learns in this course to enhance their safety in the local environment or elsewhere? This program is designed specifically for beginning kayakers, providing them with the confidence and readiness to handle the basics of kayaking, including how to choose a kayak,trip planning, rules of the road, outfitting a boat, and learning the essential paddle strokes, braces, and self-rescue techniques to become competent in the water. F. Courses with prerequisites or are not the beginning course in a series: How does this course build upon the skills learned in previous, less advanced courses in the series and how does this specific learning improve boating safety? If course is a beginning course without a prerequisite, write N/A. as your response. N/A Aquatic Grant Curriculum Check Sheet(2) �.

Target Audience: Clearly describe the target audience for this course. Our target audience is youth between the ages of 6-13 in Redding who needs boating safety education but whose family lacks the disposable income to afford the full program cost. B. Target Audience: Why is it important that this audience receives this specific boating safety instruction? For Shasta County youth, our lakes and rivers are their backyard.A boating safety course is essential,targeted prevention for a high-risk group in a high-risk environment. It provides lifesaving skiils in seif-rescue, emergency response, and safe practices, empowering them to safely enjoy the county's defining natural resources and creating a lasting culture of water safety. C. Course Objectives: Upon completion of this course,what new skills will the student have? This curriculum moves beyond theory to provide hands-on, practical competence.Youth will learn to understand the mandatory use of life jackets, navigation rules, and how to assess water conditions, how to navigate a SUP, self-rescue techniques and perform non-water-entry rescues to aid others without becoming a victim, a crucial skill in remote areas of our lakes where emergency response times can be delayed. D. Curriculum Exampies: Give 2-3 examples of how you incorporate the items you checked in 9 a-c into your curriculum and their importance. For beginner stand up paddlers,safety hinges on mastering balance and self-recovery. The three most vital skills are: 1. Falling Safely&Self-Rescue: The first lesson is how to fall away from the board to avoid injury and Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:47 of 77 Exhibit A immediately perform a deep-water remount. This is non-negotiable for safety in any environment, especially cold or deep water. 2. Effective Paddling&Maneuvering: Students learn a proper forward stroke using core muscles for power and efficiency, plus essential sweep strokes for turning.This provides control to navigate wind, current, and avoid obstacles, preventing fatigue. 3. Kneeling as a Stable Position:The skill of instantly dropping to the knees is a fundamental safety reflex. It creates a low center of gravity to stabilize in wind,waves, or when tired, serving as a "neutral gear"for rest and reassessment. These skills form a safety framework: recover from a fall, control your board, and use a stable position to manage uncertainty. E. Best Takeaways: What are the most important skills a student learns in this course to enhance their safety in the local environment or elsewhere? Investing in this program is an investment in a lasting safety legacy for Shasta County. By educating our youth,we are creating a multiplier effect.These young individuals become responsible peers, future safe boaters, and eventually, parents who pass these vital practices on to the next generation. This reduces the long-term burden on our first responders and aligns with the safety missions of the Shasta County SherifF's Marine Patrol Unit. F.

C. Course Objectives: Upon completion of this course,what new skills will the student have? The Basic Small Boat Sailing program aims to provide thorough instruction on essential sailing skills, enabling students to benefit from these skills and stay safe in, on, and around the water. The skills involved fall into two categories: basic boat-handling skills and nomenclature, and self-rescue techniques. Basic boat handling skills and injury prevention are the foundation of the class. Contract#C8970325,City of Redding,Aquatic Center Grant FY 2025-26,Date:03/03/2026 Page:50 of 77 Exhibit A D. Curriculum Examples: Give 2-3 examples of how you incorporate the items you checked in 9 a-c into your curriculum and their importance. For a youth sailors, safety is about controlling the boat's power and responding to changing conditions. The three most critical skills are: 1. Man Overboard Recovery: Instantly understanding that you cannot sail directly into the wind is fundamental. Coupied with this, practicing to recover a crewmember is the most important emergency drill, ensuring a person in the water can be retrieved. 2. Controlled Tacking&Jibing: Safely turning the boat through the wind and away from the wind without losing control or being hit by the boom is essential for maneuvering and avoiding accidental, dangerous swings of the boom. 3. Heeling Control&Reefing: Learning to use the mainsheet as a"brake"and easing it to spill wind during a strong gust prevents a capsize. Understanding when and how to reduce sail area is the key proactive skill for managing increasing winds safely. These skills ensure a participants can navigate and manage the boaYs power to prevent emergencies before they happen. E. Best Takeaways: What are the most important skills a student learns in this course to enhance their safety in the local environment or elsewhere? For a beginning sailing student,the most important safety skills directly address controlling the boat's power and responding to the specific challenges of the local environment while being cognizant of the physical safety of self and others.

(Public Contract Code sections 10475, et seq.; Stats. 2008, Ch. 272). The Act was passed by the California Legislature and signed into law by the Governor to preclude State agencies generally from contracting with "scrutinized" companies that do business in the African nation of Sudan (of which the Darfur region is a part), for the reasons described in Public Contract Code section 10475. A scrutinized company is a company doing business in Sudan as defined in Public Contract Code section 10476. Scrutinized companies are ineligible to, and cannot, bid on or submit a proposal for a contract with a State agency for goods or services. (Public Contract Code section 10477(a)). Therefore, Public Contract Code section 10478 (a) requires a company that currently has (or within the previous three years has had) business activities or other operations outside of the United States to certify that it is not a "scrutinized" company when it submits a bid or proposal to a State agency. (See # 1 on the sample Attachment). A scrutinized company may still, however, submit a bid or proposal for a contract with a State agency for goods or services if the company first obtains permission from the Department of General Services (DGS) according to the criteria set forth in Public Contract Code section 10477(b). (See # 2 on the sample Attachment). The following sample Attachment may be included in an IFB or RFP to satisfy the Act's certification requirements of bidders and proposers. Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 10478, if a bidder or proposer currently or within the previous three years has had business activities or other operations outside of the United States, it must certify that it is not a "scrutinized" company as defined in Public Contract Code section 10476. Therefore, to be eligible to submit a bid or proposal, please complete only one of the following three paragraphs (via initials for Paragraph # 1 or Paragraph#2, or via initials and certification for Paragraph#3): 1. We do not currently have, or we have not had within the previous three years, business activities or other operations outside of the United States. OR 2.
