Our Values

Safety Our top priority is safety! This program is designed to teach children swimming skills and safety in the water.

Competition While teaching safety skills, we will also have a competitive track. This is where we work with the swimmers in the high levels to help us compete on our swim team, The Elk Grove Stingrays!

Our Philosophy

● A relationship exists between instructor behaviors and student performance. ● Students learn in different ways and have different readiness levels. ● The focus should be on ability, not disability, achievement, not errors. ● Multiple methods of instruction, including “learn by doing” results in higher levels of student performance. ● Effective instructional methods can be learned and developed.

Pavilion Aquatics Center Dipper’s Level 1

Swimmers will begin to learn flutter kicks on their front and back with the correct body position, review the back and front float with some assistance, and submerge their heads to grab objects under water. We will also introduce arm motions for freestyle and streamlining with assistance.

Dipper’s Level 2

Swimmers at this level are very comfortable in the water. This class is skill development for beginners. Swimmers will learn how to float on their front and back unassisted, glide, kick, jump off, and return to the wall. Participants will begin to add flutter kick to their freestyle and backstroke arm motions. Students will also be able to streamline unassisted.

Dipper’s Level 3

Swimmers will work on freestyle with side breathing and backstroke. Flip turns will be introduced in this level. Swimmers will be able to swim 10 yards without stopping in both backstroke and freestyle.

Dipper’s Level 4

Swimmers should already be able to swim freestyle and backstroke 25 yards. Focus will be on incorporating side breathing and flip turns into freestyle and backstroke. Diving and breaststroke kick will be introduced at this level; to move to Level 5, swimmers should be able to kick 25 yards of breaststroke without stopping.

Dipper’s Level 5

Breaststroke arms will be introduced and will incorporate legs in this level. Introduction of diving off the starting blocks and butterfly kicks. Swimmers should be able to complete 25 yards of breaststroke to move up to Level 6.

Dipper’s Level 6

Level 6 focus is endurance with backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle. Swimmers should be able to swim 50 yards of breast stroke, 100 yards of backstroke, and freestyle with turns.

The Foundation provides funding to programs and activities not typically supported by property taxes. Parks and recreation is an important asset to the community. It is well documented that communities with an excellent park district have lower adolescent crime rates and increased property values. Individuals and corporations are invited to support the Foundation through monetary donations or in-kind gifts. Your donation of any amount is gladly accepted at our customer services desks at the Pavilion & Hattendorf Center. You can mail your check to: Elk Grove Parks Foundation, 499 Biesterfield Road, Elk Grove Village, IL 60007. Please contact Kelly Carbon at 847.228.3548 for more information.

Elk Grove Park District reserves the right to photograph videotape and stream participants in Park District programs, facilities or parks for the District’s promotional materials and marketing efforts. Photo coverage is provided in part by Park District Staff.

Household Account

This account consists of up to two adults and dependent children, less than 26 years of age who reside at the same address. If there are two or more families living at the same address, where there are more than two adults over the age of 26, then two or more accounts must exist.

Business Owner Rate

Elk Grove Business owners, who reside outside the Elk Grove Park District, but who pay Elk Grove Park District taxes, are eligible to receive a discounted business rate on Park District programs. The business owner rate is annual and equivalent to the listed resident rate, and business owners may register during the resident registration period. However, the participant is still considered a non-resident in terms of residency status.

Business owners must prove ownership prior to registration.

Waiver And Release Form

A Waiver and Release of All Claims Form must be signed when registering yourself or your minor child for Elk Grove Park District programs. Your registration is not valid without a signed waiver. To ensure enrollment, please use our online or in person registration options.

Special Needs & ADA Compliance

We invite any resident with a special need to contact our staff, or our Special Recreation Association staff, upon registration, so that a smooth inclusion may occur.

In addition to the programs listed within our brochure, our district also provides specialized services for people with disabilities through the Northwest Special Recreation Association.

Residency

All Elk Grove Village residents may not be residents of the Elk Grove Park District. Residents that support Elk Grove Park District through property taxes are defined as Elk Grove Park District residents. The Elk Grove Park District is not a part of the Village of Elk Grove Government. The Elk Grove Park District is a stand-alone tax supported agency. You may have an Elk Grove Village address, but not pay taxes to the Elk Grove Park District. The quickest way to determine your Park District resident status is to check your resident tax bill. The park district you pay taxes to will be listed. If you reside in Elk Grove Village, but do not pay taxes to the Elk Grove Park District, you are eligible for the Non-Resident Household Membership.

(See definition below) District residents will have priority registration as the dates of registration are listed in the seasonal brochures. Resident and non-resident fees are listed with the program information. When establishing a new household account with the Elk Grove Park District, and including an online account, each resident is required to prove residency in person. This is a matter of data verification to make sure we have the most updated information in our new system. Once completed, we will activate the online portion.

Please bring one of the following items for each household member with you to set up your account:

Warning Of Risk

Recreational activities/programs are intended to challenge and engage the physical, mental, and emotional resources of each participant.

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, slipping, falling, 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/programs exist.

In this regard, it must be recognized that it is impossible for the Elk Grove Park District to guarantee absolute safety. A Waiver and Release of All Claims Form must be signed when registering yourself or your minor child for Elk Grove Park District programs.
