Spring Guide 2023

SPRING 2023

On Nov 12, 2022 elected officials and members of the community gathered to dedicate a new area of Morton Park to Ralph Souder, a former Commissioner of the Elk Grove Park District who dedicated 18 years to the Board of Commissioners. Ralph is a native to Elk Grove Village. He began volunteering with Elk Grove Youth Sports 30 years ago with the football and basketball programs and was elected to the Board in 2004. Ralph is an outdoor enthusiast and has a passion for fishing and sharing this sport with others.

When Ralph retired from the Elk Grove Board of Commissioners, the Board wanted to honor Ralph for his decades of service to the community. It seemed fitting to name the new area at Morton Park after this outstanding community volunteer.

This area consists of a streambank stabilization project with tiered stone to allow better access to Salt Creek for fishing, canoeing and kayaking. The improvements were made using outcropping stone that is tiered to stabilize the shoreline and protect it from erosion. A 20’x20’ shade structure with triangular sails and four picnic tables is a great place to enjoy outdoor gatherings with protection from the sun on the Morton Park side of the creek. This new area is known as "Souder Point."

We look forward to the community coming out to enjoy Souder Point this Spring.

OUR VALUES

Safety: Our top priority is safety! This program is designed to teach your child 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 compete on our swim team- The Elk Grove Stingrays!

OUR cLASSES

Ollie the Octopus’

Parent/Child

This class utilizes fun songs and games to get your child acclimated to the water. As parents you will work with your child to master getting them comfortable in the water. We will focus on body positions, floating, blowing bubbles, and fundamental safety and aquatics skills.

Rockin’ Roxy’s Preschool

Our preschool swim lessons are an introduction to gaining independence in the water while learning water skills and safety. Participants will learn floating with assistance, kicking, basic arm movements, and water comfortability (face, ears, eyes, nose, and head submerged in the water).

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.

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.

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. Butterfly arms will be introduced and swimmers will incorporate legs when participants are ready.

Adult Group Lessons

Adult group lessons (swimmers age 15+) are designed for beginner level swimmers and will also cater to those who have some experience in the water and want to freshen up their skills. Swimmers start with learning the basic safety skills (breath control through the mouth and nose, front and back float, as well as the beginning arm and kicking movements for freestyle) and progress to independent freestyle and develop backstroke technique.

BuSinESS OwnEr RatE

The business owner rate is 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.

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:

Adults (Over 18) Dependent

SpEcial NEEdS & ADA compliancE
