Youth Recreation BASKETBALL

BATON

“Rookies” have been teaching kids to play this highly rewarding, fast paced game. We love basketball and it shows in every single clinic. Our coaches have a lot of experience and will work hard to make sure your children have a great time. They will also make sure that you see a solid improvement in their love, knowledge and skill level for the game. No equipment needed with the exception of gym shoes and a good attitude.

Learn the basics of baton twirling in the beginner class and then work your way into the Razzle Dazzles baton teams and corps. All twirlers will be given an opportunity to march in local parades, perform in shows and attend competitions. Baton twirling develops coordination and confidence. Zion Park District offers a wide variety of classes for each group and level. Participants will be measured for a baton on the first day of class if needed.

TABATA: Tabata training is one movement at absolute maximum intensity for 20 seconds, take a 10-second rest, and then begin again. The same movement is done for eight rounds before going to another movement.

Part of what makes Tabata so difficult is performing four minutes of the same movement at kill-yourself intensity. If you’re not absolutely toast after those four minutes, you didn’t go hard enough.

How it works: Aqua Zumba® blends the Zumba® philosophy with water resistance, for one pool party you shouldn’t miss!

Benefits: There is less impact on your joints during an Aqua Zumba® class so you can really let loose. Water creates natural resistance, which means every step is more challenging and helps tone your muscles.

NON-RESIDENT INFORMATION

OUR FRIENDLY OFFICE STAFF

Non-residents are welcome to participate in Zion Park District programs and activities. Many of these programs require that a non-resident pay an additional out-of-district fee. The non-resident fee options are listed below.

1. Single program fee – This is an additional fee paid per program. The amount varies with each program. Check individual program listings.

2. Pass fee – This is an additional fee paid when a season pass is purchased.

The amount varies according to the type of pass purchased. These fees are listed next to the pass prices.

Often times a question arises as to who is a resident of the Park District. A resident must live within the boundaries of Zion Park District. It’s sometimes easy to confuse residency with a Zion mailing address. Many people in the area surrounding Zion have a five-digit Zion mailing address. These five-digit addresses are located in the county and are not within the boundaries of Zion Park District. A tax bill, voter registration card, or vehicle sticker receipt will help to establish your residency. The park district staff will be glad to answer any questions you may have regarding these fees.

Registration Form ZION PARK DISTRICT WAIVER & RELEASE The Zion 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 Zion 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 below 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/programs 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/program. 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 Zion 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 below identified programs/activities, 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 said programs/activities (including transportation services/vehicle operation, when provided).
