Throughout our 90 years, our progress and growth has strived to preserve that same spirit from which we began. And although sometimes our challenge is simply living up to the expectations our heritage has set, you and your families still inspire us today, just as they did nine decades ago. Most recently, you inspired us to partner with the Arlington Heights Memorial Library, Northwest Community Healthcare, Arlington Heights Park District Parks Foundation, Wheeling Community Consolidated School District #21, Prospect Heights School District #23, Arlington Heights School District #25, Village of Arlington Heights and the Arlington Heights Chamber of Commerce Wellness Committee to identify and target the community aspects that influence obesity and active living. Read more about the GP RED project on page 13.

Vice President

Fast forward to today: Enriching the community by providing quality recreation, facilities and fun is still core to the AHPD and how we value ensuring that our programs remain affordable and accessible –neighborhood to neighborhood and to over 75,000 residents. So in celebrating this 90th anniversary, we also celebrate you for embodying the same pioneering spirit that, in 1925, transformed “railroad parks” into a park system now among the largest and most respected in the state.

How is the Park District Program Guide delivered to residents?

What if I don’t receive a Program Guide by the delivery date?

The Arlington Heights Park District uses a door to door service to deliver the guide to residents prior to each program session or four times per year.

We would like to know as soon as possible if you do not receive a Guide. The Program Guide is also available online at ahpd.org and you can pick up a copy of the brochure at any Park District facility after the delivery dates.

Why choose a delivery service over bulk mailing through the Post Office? There are several reasons: •  The benefit of the delivery service is a significant cost savings over mailing. It also allows us to target delivery to Park District residents. •  The amount of time needed to deliver the Guide through the delivery service is 1-3 days. •  Through the post office, the requirement for bulk mailing is 10-12 days. •  Because the service indicates delivery in three days, we can find out in a timely manner those households that did not receive a Guide and re-deliver sooner. It is important to understand whatever the method of delivering the Guide; there is the potential for missed deliveries.

Guide Autumn 2015 Winter 2016 Spring 2016 Summer 2016

Delivery Date (Saturdays) July 18 November 14 January 23 April 18

Please mark your calendar and if you do not receive a Guide delivered near your front door or porch by the date indicated above; call 847.577.3003, ext 5353. We consistently work with the service for front door/ porch delivery; however on occasion the guide may be delivered in your driveway. There are three other options if you do not receive the Guide by the delivery date; you may stop by any Park District facility or view the

It is our goal to minimize the number of non-deliveries and work with the delivery service to identify where problems occurred and to improve the service. Our #1 priority is to make sure those individuals and families, who want the Park District Program Guide, receive it.

new interactive guide online at ahpd.org. You may also print the guide from a pdf file located on the Park District’s home page. We hope this article provides you with additional information on how the Program Guide is delivered and the process to follow for re-delivery.

Creating A Healthy Environment

In response to the national concern of smoking and tobacco use at public facilities, the Park District seeks to create a healthy environment for employees, program participants, park guests and visitors. Park District facilities and vehicles have been designated as smoke free. The term “smoke” or “smoking” means the carrying, smoking, burning, inhaling or exhaling of any kind of lighted pipe, cigar, cigarette, hookah, weed, herb or any other smoking equipment including electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes.) •  Facilities include all buildings and shelters of the Park District and all areas within a fence at an outdoor pool, tennis court and skating area. •  Smoking or use of tobacco products is prohibited within 15 feet of any entrance to any Park District facility and within 50 feet of the delineated border of any playground equipment or parks when organized children’s activities or organized special events are present. •  Smoking or use of tobacco products is prohibited within 50 feet of any outdoor athletic facility including baseball/softball fields, soccer fields, football fields, ice rinks, sled hills, bocce courts, fixed baggo boards, driving range tees, basketball courts and other fields used for athletic play on Park District property. Smoking or the use of tobacco products is prohibited in all wooded areas on Park District property.

Recycling in the Parks

You may have noticed something new in the past couples of years in our parks. Our green garbage containers now double as recycling cans. In an effort to become a greener component to our community, the Park District has partnered with Groot Recycling and Waste Services. Here’s how it works. All the trash collected in our small garbage trucks will be hauled and dumped at Groot’s facility in Elk Grove Village. This state of the art recycling/waste facility separates the recyclable material from the solid waste. For our special events and for some of our higher use facilities and parks we will be providing special containers with special liners to assist in the front end collection. If you have any further questions please contact Frontier Service Center at 847.577.3013.

Plan A Picnic

Have an old-fashioned picnic in the park.

Picnic Groves A variety of facilities are available including shelters, picnic tables, ball diamonds, swimming pools, etc. Check with your local park for specifics. Grilling is allowed at some locations. Alcoholic beverages are not allowed in any park. Groups larger than 25 need a permit to use a picnic grove.

Reserve a Picnic Site Park District residents and other groups may reserve the picnic sites. A variety of picnic areas are available throughout the Park District. Listed are the major facilities - washrooms may or may not be available. Camelot (shelter), Frontier (shelter), Heritage, Pioneer, Recreation Parks, Lake Arlington, Melas Park, Centennial (shelter), Hickory Meadows (shelter), Patriots (shelter).

Summer Session Information

Parent’s Day:

There are several different session dates for the summer. We are offering two days-per-week swim lessons as well as the traditional two-week sessions and Saturday session. There will be no classes held on Fridays. Please be sure to check your swim lesson session dates. Not all swim lessons meet every day of the week. Some have conflicts with Interpark meets and some are only two days pers week. Please be sure to review the dates that you sign up for. There are sessions that run for TWO weeks, and FOUR weeks, along with SATURDAY only classes.

How are wait lists are handled for swim lessons?

No classes dates: •  There are a few days this summer when classes will not meet. There will also be no classes on Saturday, July 25 at all pools due to City Meet. •  Interpark Meet conflicts: At each pool there will be days when an Interpark swim meet conflicts with swim lessons. At Camelot, Frontier, Pioneer and Recreation the first swim lessons of the morning will be affected. At Heritage and Olympic the first swim lessons of the evening will be affected. All of the Interpark conflict dates are reflected in the scheduled offerings and the fees are adjusted accordingly. Interpark conflict dates will also be posted at the pools during the summer and announcements will be made to help remind participants.

First Day of Lessons It is important for parents to attend the first day of the session for swim lessons to find out how the lessons operate and who to speak with if you have questions. On the first day of class, participants find out who their instructor is, who the Lesson Coordinators are and the general operation of the lesson program for that particular pool. You will also be able to pick up a parent packet which has a detailed listing of all the skills that are taught in Water Babies through Swim School.

Advancing Levels Participants can advance levels in Junior Swim School, Swim School and Semi-Private Swim School. Four-year olds can move from Junior Swim School to Swim School. Participants are evaluated by a lesson coordinator periodically throughout the session. There is no magic number of how many times a child will be tested. It is an unreal expectation to test every participant every day. The lesson coordinator discusses the daily lesson activity with the swim instructors prior to class and reviews the class sheets to plan their evaluations for the day. Every day is different and there is not a set pattern in how evaluations are done. It is never our intent to frustrate participants or parents. Our goal is for the participant to learn and have fun.

Parent’s Days are held for Jr. Swim School and Swim School and are a day when parents are invited pool side to observe their child’s skills and to talk with the swim instructor.

If you are placed on a wait list for a swimming class, we will do our best to get you into that class. Many times prior to the class starting a registered participant or two may refund out. If and when that happens we will automatically move in the next person on the wait list and follow that up with a phone call to make sure that you still want the spot. If space is not made from refunds, we may try to expand the class. To expand a class we have to ensure that we have enough instructors to meet the required ratios and that we have enough pool space. Many classes run at the same time as others and we need to be careful not to over schedule the pool. Lastly, if we are not able to accommodate you prior to the class starting, we will keep you on the wait list for at least two days of the class to see if another participant refunds out to make the space for you. Typically we will clear the waitlist after the third day a class meets. If you want to refund off the wait list prior to the third day a class meets, please call our staff at Olympic Indoor Swim Center, 847.577.3025, so we can process that for you.

Weather Policy

In the event that a swim lessons cannot run in the water: The Park District swim classes are designed to include out of water instruction and safety procedures which are called a “Rain Days.” Each session is allotted 1 Rain Day. Participants should still come prepared to get in the water should the weather allow. In the case of more than one “Rain Day” per session, the lesson may be cancelled. Refunds will be handled by the registrar and participants need not fill any additional forms or information. A refund will be issued based on how payment was received. Please note that all refunds will not be processed until the end of your class’s session. *Please note there is no low temperature that will cancel swim lessons.*

Got a question or comment? During every swim lesson there is one Lesson Coordinator responsible for the supervision of the day’s activities. In addition, there may be one or two Aquatic Leaders on duty to assist the administration of the swim lesson program. Please direct any positive or critical comments to these key staff. We hope your experience is always positive, but if not, please do not hesitate to talk with these staff about your concern. It is much easier to address an issue and fix it on the spot, compared to the end of the session.

Private Swim Lessons (3-12 yrs) Registration is now available online and on the first day of resident registration! The minimum age for private swim lesson has been lowered to 3 years old. Private swim lessons are designed to meet your child’s individual needs. Each code is for two classes and you can sign up for as many as you like. They are packaged in sets of two, unless there is an Interpark swim meet conflict and then only one will be offered that week. New participants will be contacted prior to the first day of lessons by a Swim Lesson Coordinator who will ask about your instructor preference and what specifically your child needs to work on. We hope this new registration format makes it easier for both parents and staff to schedule and organize the private swim lessons. (AB)

Semi-Private Swim School (3-12 yrs)


AQUATICS

Windy City Diving Lessons (5-12 yrs) The beginning diving class is an introduction to the sport of springboard diving and is designed to teach the safe and proper way to use the springboard. Any individual 7 years old to 17 years old who has an interest in diving, can swim comfortably in deep water, and dive in head first off the side of the pool deck into deep water, can take this class. Students will be taught a forward approach and a back press. They will progress to forward and backward dives as well as other skills based on ability. The intermediate and advanced diving classes are for those divers who already know how to do a proper diving hurdle and back press. They also know how do a forward dive with an approach and a backward dive without any assistance. The divers will be taught new skills and tricks based on their current skill and ability.** All divers in lessons must register with USA Diving for a $12 once a year fee. Questions on how to register? Please call Olympic at 847-577-3025.

6:1 ratio. We introduce and help develop stroke coordination and comfort in the water. The program has 10 levels to help your child learn beginning through advanced swimming and safety skills. While many of the activities are repetitive, studies indicate that this is the best way for young children to learn. Frequency is the key to water adjustment and learning. All children learn at a different pace and will advance through the 10 levels at a different pace. Just because a child does not advance a level does not mean they are not learning. Participants register for classes by time periods and our staff will evaluate each child’s ability on the first day of class. Therefore the first day of class will take longer to get started due to attendance and ability evaluations. If you took swim lessons during the prior season, please bring your end of lesson sheet so staff can properly place your child. We honor sheets from one season prior. Children can wear swim goggles. If your child has long hair we recommend they wear a swim cap or tie their hair back. Please remember there are no make-ups for missed classes. Based on suggestions from parent evaluations, one week classes and two day a week classes are being offered. There are no classes on Fridays. All fees are adjusted based on how many days your class meets. Please review the dates of the classes you are interested in. (AB)

AQUATICS

Swim School (5-12 yrs)


AQUATICS

Swim Academy (6-12 yrs) Swim Academy is a learn-to-swim program designed with a focus on endurance and technique. Students should be able to complete one length freestyle and backstroke to be eligible for Swim Academy. This program is aimed for those swimmers who are looking for further immersion into the sport of swimming. The one hour class will be structured as a combination between our swim lesson program and the competitive swim team, the Arlington Muskies. The core of the program is based around the four competitive swim strokes: backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly and freestyle. Swimmers begin in the novice level Bronze, with the basic skills associated with backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle. Streamline, sometimes considered the “fifth� competitive stroke, will also be taught from the beginning. Swimmers will work through the progression of each stroke, starting from building endurance with a strong and efficient kick. The progression will continue with further parts of each stroke being broken down with the help of diagrams and in water drills, provided by the instruction of the coaches. The second level, Silver, continues freestyle and backstroke, with the addition of flip turns. Breaststroke is taught in full and the beginnings of butterfly are also introduced. In Gold, all strokes are worked on with proper turns. Students will also begin to work on using the pace clock. Throughout the program students will be introduced to some of the aspects of competitive swimming other than just the swim strokes themselves. The stroke, streamline, turn, and start are all equal parts of a race. This program is one part of swimming being lifelong. The ratio is eight students to one coach.

QuickStart Academy - Orange / Green Dot Ball Ages 7-10 The QuickStart Academy is a 3 hour camp where students will start with either Orange or Green Dot Balls, as a continuation of QuickStart III, but will have an introduction to the regular Yellow Ball.

Consistent rallying from the baseline and introduction of spins and slices, along with strategies of winning patterns of play will all be started. Fitness is very important to the individual hoping to progress with their tennis at this level, therefore on-court fitness will be introduced.

Registration dates for Summer 10 & Under Quickstart and Junior Development classes are: Session Dates: Monday, June 8 -August 16, 2015 | No class 7/4. Open and Online Registration: Begins Thursday, May 7.

10 & Under Quickstart Tennis Program Forest View is proud to offer the Quickstart Tennis method of teaching for young junior players as the first of three phases of our lesson program. We believe that this is the best way to get students playing tennis at young ages with solid technique. Racquets, balls, and courts will be sized appropriately for each age, size, and ability level with the goal being to get kids playing tennis earlier in the learning process. These lessons will look more interactive with emphasis being placed on movement and body awareness, culminating in early rallies between student and instructor and soon thereafter from student to student. We are looking forward to grooming the next generation of northwest suburban tennis players with this initiative.

10 & Under Quickstart Camp This camp was such a HIT last year so we are offering it again this summer. This program is suitable for beginners as well as children that have taken Quickstart lessons. This camp will also accommodate the Advanced and High Performance 10 & Under player. Students will be assigned to a group within the camp that is appropriate for their age and ability. In addition to tennis specific skills, camp activities will stress both eye - hand coordination and agility training. Sign up for one week or as many weeks that fit your family schedule. Skill training will be progressive for multi week campers.

Forest View Academy Program Forest View is excited to offer the Academy Program for competitive junior players. Learning perfect strokes is a worthy goal, but only if they can help you win the point. Tennis cannot be learned in a classroom, so students in the Academy program should expect to hit more than listen. Competitive experiences are not the test of your achievement. They are simply part of the process of learning to compete. The focus of training in the Academy Program will be on teaching players how to apply their individual skills to various levels of competition. For information on placement in the Academy Program please contact Head Tennis Professional, Jason Stanislaw at 847.640.2574 or jstani2836@yahoo.com Requirements for participation in the Academy Program are: •  Forest View Junior Membership •  Competitive Play (Tournaments, High School Teams, Junior Match Play Program)

Academy Program Summer Schedule Class placement in the Academy Program is per pro recommendation, and is based on several factors including but not limited to: age, previous tennis lesson experience, competition/ tournament experience and group fit. Registration and payment for Academy classes must be made in person at Forest View Racquet & Fitness Club.

PRESCHOOL Preschool Classes for 3-5 Year Olds About the Program: The preschool program provides a carefully planned curriculum, developed with the guidance of District 25 Kindergarten teachers. Our program is designed to give your child the tools and experiences they need to assure a positive transition from preschool to kindergarten. Some ongoing skills emphasized during our two year program are recognition and printing of first name with upper and lower case letters, naming basic colors and shapes, finding upper and lower cases letters when named, and reciting numbers 1-20. Our teachers encourage creative freedom through free play, imaginative play, arts and crafts, music, science, and gross and fine motor activities. The philosophy of our preschool is to allow the children to learn through play.

About the Instructors:

Requirements

Skilled professionals schooled in early childhood and/or elementary education, teach the preschool program. Our instructors are kept informed of current trends in education by attending early childhood workshops and conferences throughout the year. Our teachers help the children develop new interests, learn good work habits, follow directions, socialize, share, and establish self-direction.

Children in preschool must be toilet trained; pull-ups are not acceptable. Children in the 3-4 year old program must be 3 by September 1, 2015; those in the 4-5 year old program must be 4 by September 1, 2015. Proof of age is required at the time of registration. Please bring a birth certificate to registration. Children currently enrolled in the 3-4 year old program receive priority in registering for the 4-5 year old program. The 3-4 year old program does not require a parent to help throughout the year assisting the instructor, however, you may assist if you are interested. Parents are required to supply snacks, juice, and napkins for the children in the program approximately 4-5 times a year. Sign-up for the snack helper dates is conducted in the fall. The 4-5 year old classes provide a teacher and teacher’s aide.

PARK FOUNDATION

Honoring the service and sacrifice of veterans and their families. Memorial Park is the only park in Arlington exclusively dedicated to veterans. Each year, the Memorial Day Parade ends at Memorial Park where the entire community participates in a solemn ceremony to honor all veterans. Located at Fremont and Chestnut Streets, Memorial Park has roots deep in Arlington history. Civil War veteran, Dr. John Best, wanted to honor the sacrifices of Civil War veterans. So in 1883, he donated land to the Village for a “Soldiers Memorial” - a tribute to those who had served and sacrificed for the Union. In 1925, the Village donated the Park to the new Arlington Heights Park District. The Park was renamed “Memorial Park” and dedicated to honoring the sacrifice of all veterans throughout our nation’s history. Since 2006, the Drive to Revive Memorial Park Committee has worked with the Park District and other organizations to rebuild Memorial Park. A beautiful new design was constructed which features the service seals of all six US Military Services; a bronze timeline marking the 15 conflicts in which Arlington veterans have served; the Eternal Flame sculpture and commemorative bricks to honor the service and sacrifice of individual veterans. A special section of Memorial Park is dedicated to the 58 young men from Arlington Heights who have died in the service of our Nation – from the Civil War to the current conflict in Afghanistan. We call these 58 young men Arlington’s Fallen Heroes. To date, 500+ veterans are honored with a brick at Memorial Park. Each brick features an inscription that tells a story of service and sacrifice. Individually, these bricks recount the history of a veteran. Collectively, the 500+ bricks tell a story of service in the cause of freedom that crosses generations. Everyone is encouraged to visit the Park and view the bricks. It will be a memorable experience.

Resident Registration begins May 7 at 10 am
