Adult Activity Guide

The new Fountain View Recreation Center has been built to be eco-friendly, with features including geothermal heating and cooling, permeable paving, energy efficient lighting, and several bio-swales near the main entrance. So what are bio-swales?

These shallow ditches (shown above) are filled with vegetation and designed to act like natural filters for stormwater runoff. The design helps regulate the flow of rain water and remove silt and pollution from surface runoff water.

Sports League FAQs

How do I register?

Register online at csparks.org or use the registration form in this guide. By registering your child you agree to comply with the Parent Code of Conduct which can be accessed on the home web page of each youth sports league and is discussed by the coach at their pre-season parent meeting.

What happens if I register after the deadline?

How do I register for tee ball, soccer, lacrosse and high school leagues?

Players placed on a wait list are not guaranteed placement on a team. If you register before team formation, the player will be moved off the wait list if there are enough to form an additional team. However, if you register after team formation, or if another team cannot be formed, placement will only be done when a team or teams are below the established maximum number of team participants. Players will not be added to any team one week prior to the first scheduled game.

Registration is by grade level. Players are to be registered for the grade the player will be in for the 2013/14 school year.

Preschoolers must be entering kindergarten for the 2014/15 school year.

Can I request for my child to be placed on a specific team?

Can my child play up?

Playing up is not allowed for instructional soccer or tee ball.

For all other leagues playing up is allowed by one age or grade level but the following process must be adhered to: 1. The player must register at his or her age or grade.

2. A request to play up must be made to the program supervisor.

3. The player must attend the evaluation day for the sport and must attend at the time designated for the requested league/ level (i.e. if a player should be playing in the Mustang league but wants to play in the Bronco league, player must attend the Bronco player evaluation).

WAIVER REGISTRATION/BROCHURE WAIVER & RELEASE IMPORTANT INFORMATION The Carol Stream Park District is committed to conducting its recreation programs and activities in a safe manner and holds the safety of participants in high regard.

The Carol Stream Park District continually strives to reduce such risks and insists that all participants follow safety rules and instructions that are designed to protect the participants’ safety. However, participants and parents/guardians of minors registering for the above listed programs/activities must recognize that there is an inherent risk of injury when choosing to participate in recreational activities/programs. You are solely responsible for determining if you or your minor child/ward are physically fit and/or skilled for the activities contemplated by this agreement. It is always advisable, especially if the participant is pregnant, disabled in any way or recently suffered an illness, injury or impairment, to consult a physician before undertaking any physical activity.

WARNING OF RISK Recreational activities are intended to challenge and engage the physical, mental and emotional resources of each participant. Despite careful and proper preparation, instruction, medical advice, conditioning and equipment, there is still a risk of serious injury when participating in any recreational activity. Understandably, not all hazards and dangers can be foreseen. Depending on the particular activity, participants must understand that certain risks, dangers and injuries due to inclement weather, slip and falls, poor skill level or conditioning, carelessness, horseplay, unsportsmanlike conduct, premises defects, inadequate or defective equipment, inadequate supervision, instruction or officiating, and all other circumstances inherent to indoor and outdoor recreational activities exist. In this regard, it must be recognized that it is impossible for the Carol Stream Park District to guarantee absolute safety.

WAIVER AND RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK Please read this form carefully and be aware that in signing up and participating in the programs listed, you will be expressly assuming the risk and legal liability and waiving and releasing all claims for injuries, damages or loss which you or your minor child/ward might sustain as a Result of participating in any and all activities connected with and associated with these programs (including transportation services and vehicle operations, when provided). I recognize and acknowledge that there are certain risks of physical injury to participants in these programs, and I voluntarily agree to assume the full risk of any and all injuries, damages or loss, regardless of severity, that my minor child/ward or I may sustain as a result of said participation. I further agree to waive and relinquish all claims I or my minor child/ ward may have (or accrue to me or my child/ward) as a result of participating in these programs against the Carol Stream Park District, including its officials, agents, volunteers and employees. I have read and fully understand the above important information, warning of risk, assumption of risk and waiver and release of all claims.

Adult Activity Guide

The new Fountain View Recreation Center has been built to be eco-friendly, with features including geothermal heating and cooling, permeable paving, energy efficient lighting, and several bio-swales near the main entrance. So what are bio-swales?

These shallow ditches (shown above) are filled with vegetation and designed to act like natural filters for stormwater runoff. The design helps regulate the flow of rain water and remove silt and pollution from surface runoff water.
