Our Park District Commissioners The Arlington Heights Park District is governed by a Board of five elected officials. The Board meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month at the Administration Center, 410 N. Arlington Heights Road. Meetings begin at 7 pm. Residents are encouraged to attend.
Park District Mission Statement The Arlington Heights Park District enriches our community by providing quality recreation, parks, facilities and fun.
We do this by: • Ensuring the efficient and effective use of financial resources and Park District assets. • Providing innovative recreational opportunities and facilities to meet the diverse programming needs of our community. • Continuing the District’s pursuit of being a community, regional, state and national leader. • Promoting an environment of cooperation, collaboration, and teamwork. • Providing quality internal and external customer-focused service. • Providing stewardship of our open spaces and natural resources.

Letter From The President Inherent to the Arlington Heights Park District’s mission is the idea of diligently managing our facilities and assets to ensure that we continue to meet the needs of our residents at the lowest possible cost. The surest way to do this is to know our assets. It sounds simple but planning for the repair and replacement of infrastructure is something we take seriously. We also believe that it is important to solicit and use feedback we receive from the community when we plan for these improvements. Based on input from residents, the Park Board approved master plans for Camelot Park, Frontier Park, Heritage Park and Recreation Park in 2010. Parking lot improvements at Lake Arlington Golf Club were completed in 2010 in time for the 2011 summer season. Additionally, final playground equipment designs for Recreation, Evergreen and Melas Park playground improvements were completed based on public meetings held in early 2011. AHPD approaches these efforts methodically in order to best leverage a limited capital budget to achieve maximum benefit. We do this by 1) Taking inventory, knowing what assets we have and what condition they are in; 2) Prioritizing our assets to ensure that funds are allocated for their repair and/or replacement; 3) Developing a plan so that we know how much money is needed to maintain the operation of the asset; 4) Implementing an asset management plan based on the estimated costs and to determine if additional funds, or financial assistance from other agencies in the form of intergovernmental agreements or OSLAD grants are necessary; 5) Reviewing and revising the plan so that it evolves as priorities shift or as needs arise or change. The Park District remains committed to providing safe and affordable programs for everyone. Stay active, get involved and participate in open meetings so that we hear what it is you need from us. Staying up to date with all the happenings at the Park District is easy. Simply sign-up for our E-newsletters and E-mail alerts. Go to ahpd.org to Get Connected today. Have a safe and enjoyable summer. Maryfran Leno President Arlington Heights Board of Commissioners

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. Listed below are the delivery dates for Fall 2011-Summer 2012.
Why choose a delivery service over bulk mailing through the Post Office?
Guide Fall 2011 Winter 2012 Spring 2012 Summer 2012
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. 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.
Delivery Date (Saturdays) July 23 November 19 January 28, 2012 April 21, 2012
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 it 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.

Sue Gwinnup, Superintendent of Recreation, is the District’s ADA Compliance Officer. If you need a special accommodation to participate in any Park District function, contact Sue at 847.506.7870, and she will be happy to assist you. Program participants should complete the Special Accommodation section on the registration form. This gives the program supervisor the information they need to assist you. NOTE: The Recreation Park community center is not an accessible facility. Have You Moved or Changed Your Phone Number? Please notify the Park District with your change of address or phone number. Send us a change of address card from the post office. We will need your old address and the new address to update our computer information. It is important to update our records so that confirmation post cards and your refunds are mailed to the most current address. This is especially important for online registration. Assistance: Park District staff and program instructors are not capable of providing bathroom assistance to those individuals who cannot care for themselves. It is the participant’s responsibility to make his/her own arrangements prior to registering for any programs or activities, if they require this type of assistance.

Please call 847.577.3009 for more information. Classes On Religious Holidays: Within a program session, classes may Winter on a day that residents honor as a religious holiday. In an effort to be sensitive to all religions, class participants may: • Make up the class missed, if space exists or • Have the fee pro-rated to reflect the day that must be missed. • Your program supervisor will be happy to assist you with either option. Age Requirement: When a class lists a minimum age, your child must be that age when the program begins. Contact the program supervisor if you have any questions.

ATTENTION PARENTS! [Recommended Safety Tips for Child Drop Off at Programs] Listed below are several safety guidelines the Park District encourages parents to follow when dropping their child(ren) off at a Park District program.
Community Center Office Hours Camelot, Frontier, Heritage, Pioneer, and Recreation Parks Monday-Friday 1 - 5 pm Saturday 9 am - Noon Olympic Indoor Swim Center Monday-Friday 9 am - 7 pm Saturday 8 am - 1 pm For your convenience online and mail-in registration is accepted for most Park District programs.

For Your Safety
Parents are encouraged to please escort children to and from the building, pool, field, outdoor tennis court, etc.
The use of cell phones, cameras, and other recording devices is prohibited in all Arlington Heights Park District locker rooms and bathrooms. Please report any suspicious behavior. Thank you for your cooperation.
Parents are also encouraged to take their child directly into the class or activity area.
Creating A Healthy Environment
Parents should try to stay with their child until the instructor arrives/ begins the class. On occasion an instructor may encounter an emergency or an unexpected situation which causes them to be late or miss a class. If this occurs, the instructor notifies the program supervisor as quickly as possible and the supervisor addresses the situation as quickly as possible.
In response to the national concern of smoking 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 non-smoking areas. Our facilities include the buildings, fenced outdoor pool areas and athletic fields.
If a parent finds that an instructor has not shown up for a program, please contact the Park District Administration Center at 847.577.3000 during regular business hours Monday-Friday, 9 am-5 pm.

Current Exhibit: Storytelling Through the Mail: Tall Tale Postcards May 7-August 28, 2011 Imagine a land...where corn grows to the size of tree trunks; where the lakes are so cold that the trout have fur coats; where deer have become hunters and men are their prey. These assorted oddities come vividly to life in “Storytelling through the Mail: Tall Tale Postcards.” Tall tales are humorous stories of exaggeration, fictional accounts that are presented as the truth. Tall tale postcards, a popular visual form of telling these stories, are created often through photographic trickery. They are passed on in oral, written, and visual forms, including the postcards, cartoons and their artifacts included in this exhibit. This travelling exhibition from the Michigan State University Museum features over 80 examples of postcards from around the United States, plus artifacts like taxidermy specimens, newspaper cartoons and magazine covers that also help to tell the story of the tall tale postcard. Sponsor: Frontier Days Inc. Heritage Gallery and Shop Hours: Fri-Sun. 1:30-4:30 pm (excluding holidays) 112 W. Fremont St, 847.255.1225 | ahmuseum.org
Exhibit program and reception: Taking Postcards Seriously Tuesday, May 24, 2011 6:30 pm Refreshments | 7:00 pm Program A penny to buy and a penny to send, during the late 19th and 20th centuries postcards were a cheap, efficient, and colorful means of communication. “Taking Postcards Seriously” is a look into the Curt Teich Postcard Archives, the world’s largest publicly held repository of postcards and the materials used to produce them. The beginning of the postcard business in the U.S. and how postcards document late 19th and 20th century life will be discussed. Please register by calling 847-255-1225 or email klundstrom@ahpd.org.

Kennicott Avenue), Sunset Meadows Driving Range (Kirchoff Rd. & Dwyer Avenue.) • Fitness Facilities/Programs are held at Forest View Fitness and Racquet Club (800 E.

As you may be aware our flocks of geese and ducks have increased yearly. One of the causes of this is artificial feeding. Your well-intended snacks for our feathered friends decreases their ability to survive on the available natural food and makes them susceptible to disease and other predators. Snack food invites more geese and ducks and the additional food is usually of poor or improper nutritional quality. The ultimate solution is to STOP FEEDING THE BIRDS. Pampering them does no good.
Plan A Picnic Have an old-fashioned picnic in the park! Picnic Groves A variety of facilities are available including picnic tables, ball diamonds, swimming pools, etc. Check with your local park for specifics. Barbecue grills may be brought into the parks, but no alcoholic beverages are allowed. 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 at Camelot, Frontier, Recreation, Pioneer and Heritage Parks. For further information regarding fees and availability contact your local park or call 847.577.3000.

The annual patriotic flag display in North School Park at Eastman Street and Arlington Heights Road is installed before Memorial Day weekend and remains until after July 4. Grouped throughout the park are the evolution of old glory flag, 27 stars and stripes flags, beginning with the 13-star flag ratified in 1787. Merchant Marines and the Coast Guard flags will be in the amphitheater with the other military flags. In front of the Administration Center, 410 N. Arlington Heights Road, are 15 historic flags from the pre-American Revolutionary War era.

Clean Up the Parks Week
Flag Display in North School Park
In 2010 the Arlington Heights Park District became familiar with Sphecius speciosus. What is Sphecius speciosus? Better known as, (and it sounds worse than it is) Cicada Killer Wasp. Cicada Killer Wasps are in fact quite harmless. They are most commonly confused with European hornets. The most visible of these are the males, which cannot sting. Although the males may appear to be aggressive or chase you, they are probably just trying to orient themselves because you are a new large object in their habitat. Female Cicada Killer Wasps can sting, but seldom do. A scale of sting pain developed by biologists for rating the intensity of stings ranges from 0 to 4 (0 being the least pain and 4 the most pain). The female sting is between 0 and 1 on that scale. Those who may be allergic still need to take the same caution they normally do. The Arlington Heights Park District has tried several methods of control including removing sections of soil and sand and replacing with new material hoping to break their life cycle. If you have any questions please call the Frontier Service Center at 847.577.3013 or check out additional information on the Cicada Killer Wasps at ahpd.org.

Day Camp
Parent’s Day Camp Meeting Wednesday, May 25 , 7-8 pm Frontier Park, 1933 N. Kennicott Drive, 847.577.3015 If your child is enrolled in Sunny Meadows or Arlington Adventure Day Camp, join us for an informative hour sharing specific details of our camp activities. We’ll discuss field trips, extended stay, swim time, lunch and more. There will be time for questions.
WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING TO CAMP EACH DAY Starting with the first day of camp, please make sure your child brings a swimsuit, towel, water bottle, sunscreen and lunch. On Fridays, we will provide a lunch for all the campers. Water will also be available but your child is free to bring their own drink if desired. Additional information on the camp program can be found in the Day Camp Parent Manual available on the Park District website at ahpd.org, under programs, camps. Day camp will not be held on Monday, July 4th.
Camp Includes: Arts and crafts, outdoor sports and games, dramatics, songs, nature lore, daily swim, lunch for the weekly Taste of Camp, special events, plus a field trip and guest speaker every two weeks. Swim lessons and tennis lessons are available for an additional fee. Activities vary each session, so campers can sign up for more than one session without repetition. Separate activities have been planned for both age groups. More emphasis is placed on sports in Arlington Adventure. Please make sure you provide a lunch for your child every day but Fridays. Water will be available. A camp t-shirt will be included in the fee this year. One shirt will be given for the entire summer.
Day Camp: Tennis Lessons Participants who attend camp (Sunny Meadows or Arlington Adventure) at Camelot Park and Frontier Park will be able to take the same high-quality tennis lessons that we offer through our renowned outdoor tennis lessons program but at a significant camp savings. The lessons will be taught by experienced, well-prepared instructors from Heritage Tennis Club. These lessons will provide kids with new skills in a great game as well as variety in their routines. Eight lessons per two-week session will be taught on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Sign up for one session or as many as you like. Day camp will not be held on Monday, July 4th.(RL)
Day Camp: Swim Lessons Again, this year, there will be the option to take swim lessons during day camp. These lessons will be available to any Sunny Meadows or Arlington Adventure camper. You must sign up for swim lessons each session that you are interested in participating. There will not be lessons available at Pioneer Park, because camp only meets three days a week and field trips are held on Wednesdays. Lessons at Camelot, Frontier and Heritage Park will be held on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays for 40 minutes and taught by the Aquatic Department Staff. Lessons will not be held Session V at Pioneer Park. Day camp will not be held on Monday, July 4th. (LM)

Bicycles, Strollers and Carriages At The Outdoor Pools Bicycle racks are available for use at the bike owner’s risk. Please lock your bike. For safety, bicycles are not permitted near the park building’s front doors, on the driveway near the wading pool, in the concession gate area, and never in the building. Strollers, carriages, buggies, etc. are allowed in the designated areas only and must be wheeled through the locker rooms, not the pool office. Designated areas vary from pool to pool based on the design of each location. Due to limited space and safety concerns, strollers are not allowed in the immediate areas adjacent to the pool.

In the wading pool, lawn chairs must be kept up against the fence. On the main pool deck, lawn chairs must be ten feet away from the edge of the pool. This is to provide a safe area to walk around the pools and also provides lifeguard staff an unobstructed view of the pool edge. Certain areas are restricted from lawn chairs for the safety of the patrons at the pool. Please ask the pool manager about the areas for lawn chair use. Chairs are not allowed in the spray ground area.
The use of cell phones, cameras, and other recording devices is prohibited in all Arlington Heights Park District locker rooms and bathrooms. Please report any suspicious behavior. Thank you for your cooperation.

Public Open Swim will begin at 1 pm and you are invited to stay and enjoy the day.
Free Swim Lesson Evaluation On June 7, June 8 and June 9 at 6 pm our professional summer Swim Lesson Coordinator staff will evaluate your child’s swimming skills and tell you what level of our swim program is best suited for you. Your child will also get an opprtunity to work in a small group setting with an instructor-in-training, under the supervision of a Swim Lesson Coordinator. During this one on one time your child will get to practice some on the skills they may be struggling with. You will leave with a certificate that you can bring in on your first day of summer swim lessons that will help get you placed in the right level. These evaluations are intended for ages 3 to 12. Staff will also be available to answer any questions you may have about our program or summer schedule. Please stop by and see us. This is a free opportunity. No registration required.

Swim Lesson Parent Information
Advancing Levels:
Summer Session Dates: The are several different session dates for the summer. We are excited to once again offer one week swim lessons this summer. We are also offering two day a week swim lessons. Many parents expressed an interest in one week and two day a week offerings based on program evaluations. We will also be offering an early week of swim lessons at Olympic to accommodate those school districts getting our earlier than D25. In addition there will also be an extra week of swim lessons offered at the end of summer at Olympic. There will be the traditional two week sessions and a Saturday session throughout the summer as well. There will be no classes held on Fridays. By reducing the number of classes from as many as 10, we are able to keep consistency with our school year program and are also able to offer the programs at a lower fee. 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 a week. Please be sure to review the dates that you sign up for. • One week sessions: • June 6 - 9; June 13 - 16; June 20 - 23; June 27 - 30; • July 5 - 7; July 11 - 14; July 18 - 21; July 25 - 28; • August 1 - 4; August 8 - 11. • Two week sessions: • June 13 - 23; June 27 - July 7; July 11 - 21; • July 25 - August 4 • Saturday session: • June 11 - August 6, no classes on July 30. • No classes dates: • There are a few days this summer when classes will not meet. There will be no classes at all pools on July 4 due to the holiday. There will also be no classes on Saturday, July 30 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 effected. At Heritage and Olympic the first swim lessons of the evening will be effected. 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.
Parent’s Day: 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.
How are wait-lists handled for swim lessons? 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 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.
Questions or Comments:
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, when Parent’s Day is held and the general operation of the lesson program for that particular pool. You will be able to pick up a parent letter, which has a listing of all the conflict dates for your convenience. 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. You can also view this on-line at ahpd.org/swimming/SwimLessonInfo.htm.

Participants can advance levels in Junior Swim School, Swim School and Swim School II. 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.
During every swim lesson there is one Lesson Coordinator responsible 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. You can also contact the Aquatic Program Supervisor at any time, Steve Neill 847.590.6059, sjneill@ ahpd.org.

Swim School (5-12 yrs) The ratio is six students per one instructor. These classes introduce and help develop stroke coordination and comfort in the water. The program has ten 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 ten levels at a different pace. Just because a child does not advance a level does not mean they are not learning. Try to attend all classes and include swimming in your family’s recreational activities. Did you know that once your child graduates from swim school they can still register for Swim School and participate in the tenth and final level, Graduate Swim School? This level focuses on refining the six swim strokes, and building endurance. 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. (SN)

Resident Registration begins May 10 at 10 am
Registration is now available on the first day of resident registration and can be done on-line. 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. 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. (SN)

Splashball (9-11 years) What is Splashball? Think of water polo in shallow water! What a great way to get introduced to a great new team sport. Splashball will be taught in shallow water, where the participants can mostly stand on the bottom. The rules for Spalshball are different than water polo. Some of the key differences are that the participant can touch the bottom of the pool, can use two hands on the ball, and there is no defensive contact allowed. Focus will be on team passing, shooting, and defensive positioning. Participants must be able to swim at least 25 yards of the pool and be comfortable in the water.

Water Polo is an exciting team sport to watch and even more exciting to play. Teams will be coached by staff who play or have played water polo at the high school level. Specific skills will be worked on each day with which will build toward conducting actual matches between parks. This program is being offered at four locations for practices. All practices sessions will take place on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. All matches will take place at Recreation Park on Fridays between 10 am and 12 noon. Match scheduling will take into consideration the Interpark Swim Team meet schedule. Emphasis will be on having fun, learning the basics and sportsmanship. Both the ball and goal will be smaller than what is used at the high school level. This program will be offered in the deep water. Students must know how to swim and be comfortable in deep water. Last summer was a great success. We hope to build on that success and continue to grow this program. If you have any questions or comments, please call Steve Neill at 847.590.6059. No class 7/4.

Night Golf at Nickol Knoll Golf Club Let’s face it, we all get nervous when we know people are watching us take a shot. Here is the perfect answer. Play in the dark! That way no one can see you swing. If you haven’t tried Night Golf, you are missing out on an opportunity to experience the game from a totally different perspective. Specially designed balls with a green glow stick are used in place of a regular golf ball. Afraid you won’t find the ball? Don’t be…it’s actually easier than finding it in the daylight. Book a private outing with 20 or more golfers, or join us as a foursome during one of the scheduled outings open to the public. Cost: $22 per person covers greens fees and equipment. Bring your clubs and flashlight. Have the time of your life. Events have been set up for Fridays: May 20, June 24, July 22, and August 19. Call 847.590.6050 to register.

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.
Quick Start Tennis Lessons Children are introduced to the game with several specifications to scale, including court size, racquet length, ball weight and speed, net height and scoring format. This enables youngsters to practice and play tennis - just a scaled-down version from adult tennis - and allows them to play and learn at the same time.

FV 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.

Whether you want to improve sports performance, lower cholesterol or blood pressure, lose weight or fit into that sassy pair of jeans, what you eat matters. AASDN nutrition specialist, NASM certified personal trainer and CrossFit performance coach Karen Stoychoff Inman will help you fire up your health and fitness goals with a customized nutrition analysis and menu plan, initial and follow up body composition testing, and interactive group education sessions and more during this six weeks class.

PRESCHOOL
Preschool building blocks About the Instructors: 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.
About the Program: The AHPD 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 number 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. 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, 2011; those in the 4-5 year old program must be 4 by September 1, 2011. Proof of age is required at the time of registration. Children currently enrolled in the 3-4 year old program receive priority in registering for the 4-5 year old program. Some programs may be full at the February 26 general registration.
Kindergarten Connection This new program is for any child entering kindergarten in the fall of 2011. Preschool teachers, Pat Pietro and Stephanie Tallidis, will provide activities that help your child reconnect with their pre-k skills to provide a smooth transition into kindergarten.

Since its inception in 2003, SOPA has provided top quality, engaging and inspiring education that fully supports the mission of the school. As classes and enrollment increase, we have turned our focus to reaching out into the community. We started creating workshops and residency opportunities as a way to get the same top quality performing arts education that happens within the walls of Metropolis, out into the surrounding communities.

Available for viewing online at ahparkfoundation.org.

To date, we have identified fifty-six who have given their lives defending our nation.
Burial information from local and national cemeteries. We have done our very best to identify every serviceman who fits the above criteria as well as to gather details on each of them. In an effort to honor and remember these Fallen Heroes, we invite the community to review this List. If there are others who should be included on this list or if there are additions or corrections to the details on the List, please e-mail Greg Padovani, Chairman, Drive to Revive Memorial Park Committee, at arlingtonheightsveterans@gmail. com or call him at 847-392-9113. Each serviceman from the Arlington’s Fallen Heroes List will be honored and remembered with an 8x8 commemorative brick in Memorial Park in Arlington Heights. The names and details from the List will be used to craft an inscription for each reflecting their service and sacrifice. We are most grateful to the Arlington Park District Foundation which has provided the financial support needed to obtain a commemorative brick for all fifty-six Fallen Heroes. The commemorative bricks for Arlington’s Fallen Heroes will be installed in Memorial Park by Memorial Day 2011 (May 30, 2011). On that day, everyone is invited to participate in a solemn ceremony at Memorial Park immediately following the Arlington Heights Memorial Day Parade. We will honor and remember these Fallen Heroes along with all of those who have served and sacrificed in the defense of our nation.

The Drive to Revive Memorial Park Honoring the service and sacrifice of veterans and their families. Memorial Park is the only park in Arlington Heights exclusively dedicated to veterans. Located at Fremont and Chestnut Streets, each year this site serves as a gathering point for the community to pay tribute to veterans from all the branches of the armed services in a solemn ceremony at the closing of the Memorial Day Parade. Committed to honoring the sacrifices of Civil War veterans, Dr. John Best, a Civil War veteran himself, donated land to the Village for a Soldiers Memorial in 1883 to serve as 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 and the new Memorial Park was dedicated to honoring the sacrifice of all veterans throughout our nation’s history. Working with the Park District since 2006 to rebuild Memorial Park, the Drive to Revive Memorial Park Committee and other organizations developed a beautiful new design and the park now features the service seals of all six US Military Services; a bronze timeline marking the 15 conflicts in which Arlington Heights veterans have served; and commemorative bricks to honor individual veterans. To date, over 300 individual veterans are honored at Memorial Park. By purchasing a Commemorative Brick in the Central Plaza of Memorial Park you may honor any veteran from anywhere, from any service, from anytime (peace or war).
For a Memorial Park brochure and brick order form, log onto the Memorial Park webpage: ahparkfoundation.org/ memorialparkfund or call the Park District at 847.577.3000. For questions, please call Greg Padovani, Chairman of the Drive to Revive Memorial Park Committee at 847.392.9113.
