A LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR On behalf of the Board and Staff of Bolingbrook Park District, thank you for partnering with us in our constant pursuit to be the place where Bolingbrook finds the fun!

In 2018, Bolingbrook residents demonstrated support for the Park District by approving a referendum to fund a five-year plan to provide improvements throughout our system of parks, pathways and facilities. We are proud to report that we have delivered on all items from our plan. The result has been a positive impact on residents throughout the community. According to Park District Board President Jerry Hix, “The Board of Commissioners is very proud of delivering high quality projects that fulfill the promises made during the referendum cycle. We very much appreciate the resounding confidence in the Bolingbrook Park District reflected in the 62% voter approval of the referendum question.”

We concluded the plan this year by updating Balstrode and Erickson playgrounds, which were the last of 21 playgrounds throughout Bolingbrook updated as a part of the plan. Here are a few of the other items accomplished from the plan: •

At the Bolingbrook Recreation & Aquatic Center (BRAC) a new entrance, program rooms, family changing rooms, locker room improvements, and water park lazy river enhancements were completed.

•

Completed bridge and pathway construction connecting existing trails on Lily Cache Greenway in the Weber and Hassert Road area through Bradford and Drafke Parks.

•

Purchase of critical equipment to support operations including new pumps, fitness equipment, trucks, tractors, mowers, paving, roofing and HVAC units.

I am extremely proud of this dedicated Bolingbrook Park District team for accomplishing all of this during the most challenging of times. To say that a lot has happened in the world since 2018 is an understatement. Throughout all that has transpired, the support from our residents and Bolingbrook agencies has helped propel our Board and Staff forward to accomplish this plan.

2023 has been a spectacular year at the Bolingbrook Park District as many residents and visitors alike have found the fun with us. We have witnessed so many smiles during the past year, that we cannot possibly keep up. What’s incredible is that in 2023 we have experienced record numbers of attendees at Pelican Harbor, continued strong golf participation at Boughton Ridge, increased use of Lifestyles Fitness Center, as well as enhanced participation numbers in all areas of recreation programming.

We are not resting on the accomplishments of these past several years. We have a great plan of programs and activities in store for you in 2024.

Make sure that you read through this brochure. Keep in mind that not every program is for everyone, but there is something for everyone here at the Park District! Don’t miss our annual Winterfest scheduled for Saturday, February 3rd from 11am-2pm! Look for information for this fun outdoor winter event in the brochure or online at www.bolingbrookparks.org.

Thank you for your continued support of your Bolingbrook Park District programs, services, parks, and natural areas. May your 2024 be filled with joy and happiness. We look forward to serving you!

Warm regards,

Mike Selep Executive Director

Fine Arts Youth & Teen Dance Classes Keep in mind: While the dance department offers classes by session, students should take a class for at least one year or more, until the requirements of the next level have been mastered. Participating in a class for just a session or two may not be a sufficient length of time to adequately prepare the student for the next level of training. While ages have been provided in the brochure’s description of classes they do not supersede the recommendation of the teacher. Please stay in a level until the teacher recommends advancement. *Do not hesitate to request feedback or evaluation from your teacher.
