Director’s Letter Aspen Trails Park Project Aspen Trails Park is the second part of the two-part collaboration between the Village of Mt. Prospect and the Park District that will serve multiple essential purposes:

When will the project start?

• It will alleviate flooding for the Aspen community

Providing the OSLAD grant request is approved for the Four hundred thousand dollars submitted to save money for residents; this amazing project has a timeline estimate of an earliest possible 2020 start.

• It will renovate a park that has some amenities from 1971

• The earliest that the Grant could possibly be awarded is winter 2020

• It will benefit and insure greater use for School District 21

• If the grant is awarded the construction could start as early as the fall of 2020

This may be the most significant project River Trails has undertaken in 15 years!

• The playground would be scheduled to open in the summer of 2021

So what will the end result be?

• The athletic field would be scheduled to open in the spring of 2022 at the latest

• A 5-acre full park renovation

Parts of Aspen Trails Park has not seen improvements since the mid 1970’s. This collaboration would bring a brand new park for the next 20-25 years to the Aspen Trails community.

• Water detention • 1 new tennis court • 1 full basketball court • A youth baseball and softball field • New playgrounds for ages 2-5 and 5-12 year olds By combining these two projects and submitting a $400,000.00 OSLAD grant to save money for residents, insures residents are getting real value for their hard earned tax dollars. And this is on top of…savings by having our two agencies sharing the land use.

The River Trails Park District serves both the Prospect Heights and Mount Prospect communities. Don’t miss any of the fun events so be sure to Like Us on Facebook, it’s just that easy. Come check out the benefits of enjoying time with your family, after all, The Benefits of Recreation are Endless.

Early Childhood

Trail Blazers

Preschool Philosophy

ur Trail Blazers program is a developmentally appropriate program designed to help children grow and learn in a stimulating and nurturing environment. We look at the ‘whole child’ including intellectual, social, emotional, physical and creative growth. Children develop differently in each space so the curriculum is carefully planned to include activities that help each child learn and grow in all areas. Children will be introduced to the basic academic and social skills of preschool and will be encouraged to develop problem solving skills, self-confidence and creativity. Activities will include math, science, language skills, art, motor movement, music and dramatic play. All areas of each child’s growth are important and we provide opportunities for intellectual, social, physical and creative growth. Activities are presented in individual, group, structured and unstructured settings and Jolly Phonics curriculum is used for Kindergarten readiness. Our goal is for each child to develop a love of learning, tools to continue to learn and a positive image of himself or herself.

Trail Blazers Preschool Informational Open House Wednesday, February 5 6:30 – 7:30 PM Weiss Community Center All are welcome! Priority registration available at Open House

“We are here to keep you & staff safe!”

Give a unique and fun gift with an RTPD Gift Certificate. Perfect for the Holiday Season! Buy them at Weiss Community Center today!

from your RTPD Safety Committee

BE[A]WARE! Being safe is being aware • Crossing the street • Cooking on the stove • Climbing a ladder • Walking along a crowded sidewalk

• Driving through a parking lot • Carrying things while on stairs • Standing on a stepstool • Your surroundings in general

Now add a phone to this mix above. . .with an earbud. NOW safety is compromised. So Beware! A 30 second site survey is important, not only while working, but in all things you do. Just a few moments to look around, becoming aware of your surroundings goes a lo-o-o-ong way to safely preparing you for nearly anything.
