POLICIES CONDUCT ORDINANCE

SMOKING ORDINANCE

In 2004, the Board of Park Commissioners adopted a comprehensive Conduct Ordinance that relates to the use of the parks and property owned, operated, maintained, or controlled by Palatine Park District. A copy of this ordinance can be viewed at palatineparks.org under the "District Information" tab.

Smoking or any use of a tobacco product, including electronic cigarettes, is prohibited within 50 feet of all entrances to Palatine Park District buildings, in all Park District facilities, in all wooded areas on Park District property, and in all other locations where signs are posted prohibiting smoking. Smoking is allowed at Palatine Hills Golf Course and on the north side of the Clubhouse deck. See Section 2.36, Code of Conduct, which can be viewed at palatineparks.org.

PARTICIPANT CODE OF CONDUCT In addition to the Conduct Ordinance of 2004, the Board of Park Commissioners has also approved Administrative Policy 2.13.1, Code of Conduct. This Code of Conduct is the minimum expected behavior of every participant to ensure the safety and positive experience of all involved. The District uses a three pillar positive behavior program as the platform to define the expected behavior of all participants. This platform is aligned and consistent with the program used within the local elementary schools to create consistency among children and parents whether at school or play at the park district. This Code of Conduct is also aligned and tied to the District’s Antibullying policy and the District’s Participant Disciplinary Policy when rules and expectations of the positive behavior program are violated. A copy of this policy can be viewed online at palatineparks.org under the "District Information" tab.

A.D.A. COMPLIANCE Palatine Park District intends to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act by making reasonable accommodations for people with disabilities. If you have any questions about the Park District’s compliance policy please contact one of our A.D.A. compliance officers: Ed Tynczuk, 148 W. Illinois Avenue, 847.705.5130, etynczuk@palatineparks.org or Donelda Danz, 250 E. Wood Street, 847.496.6203, ddanz@palatineparks.org.

CLASS DISMISSAL GUIDELINES All children 11 and under are to remain in the classroom until a parent or authorized person comes into the classroom to pick them up. Parents are required to sign their child in and out of each class.

Parents of children ages 7–11 may opt to complete a Class Dismissal Permission Slip. This will allow the child to be released at the end of the scheduled class without a parent present. These forms are available from your child’s instructor. A separate form will be required for each class attended and every new session.

“Facilities” include all structures on Palatine Park District property including, but not limited to, swimming pools; skate, dog, and disc golf parks; riding arenas; shelters; gazebos; fishing pier; playgrounds; athletic fields; and amphitheater/bowl.

RESIDENT SCHOLARSHIPS Palatine Park District offers scholarships to Park District residents for reduced program rates according to financial need.

We begin by exploring the types of sounds a piano can make, move into easy music-reading with notes and rests, and find ways to memorize the letters on the keyboard. These lessons exercise fine motor skills through finger dexterity games, large motor through dancing songs, and aural skills through listening activities. The children sing, dance, play, clap, read, and write. A piano at home is not necessary but recommended so your children can show you all of their great work!

CLASS ACT Class Act is a youth theater program that allows young and aspiring actors to work on developing their craft and prepare for middle and high school theater. In each class we will focus on acting, movement, theater games, and scene study.

DYSTOPIA! THE HUNGRY MAZE GAME OF DIVERGENT DEATH

Trapped against their will in a dystopian future, a group of teens must battle against emotionally sensitive guards, limited budgets, and the trigger-happy Gamemaster to be proclaimed the winner.

When the odds are this absurdly bleak, it seems certain that only the main character will make it out alive—but first the contestants must decide who the main character is. A bloodthirsty send-up of reality TV and young adult fiction.

Students may be asked to provide simple costumes and props for the production. Tech Rehearsals will take place at Cutting Hall November 4—November 7, schedule TBD. Final presentations at Cutting Hall will take place on November 8 at 7:00pm for Section 01 and November 9 at 2:00pm for Section 02.To purchase tickets, visit cuttinghall.org or call 847-202-5222.

TIGER SHARKS SWIM TEAM PALATINE TIGER SHARKS SWIM TEAM Palatine Tiger Sharks Swim Team is a multi-ability-level program that offers competitive opportunities, technique development, and fun for swimmers ages 6 and older. The swim team is divided into progressive groups. Open tryouts are held twice a year (in March and August). If there is still space available, new swimmers may join the team at any time throughout the year by contacting the swim office at 847.202.3240 to schedule a tryout.

Team coaches make the final determination for group placement and advancement to the next level. Group sizes may be limited.

Following a tryout, coaches will be able to give families approximate practice times and locations. Practice times and locations are subject to pool availability and may change.

Registration is held during regular office hours at any Palatine Park District facility. All swim team registration requires a separate registration form. Non-residents are required to pay an additional fee. Families registering more than two swimmers will receive a $15 discount starting with the third swimmer.

Registration fee plus the Swim Team fee are payable to Palatine Park District by cash, check, Visa, Mastercard, or Discover.

Registration during Early Bird Registration guarantees a team t-shirt for each swimmer registered. After Early Bird Registration, a limited number of t-shirts will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Additional Swim Team Fees are the same for both residents and non-residents. Swim Team fees and escrow costs vary for each group.

Palatine Park District registration fees do not cover all Swim Team expenses so the additional swim team fees are necessary.

All fees are paid at registration.

Each member of the Tiger Sharks Swim Team must be a member of Illinois Swimming and United States Swimming.

• Escrow covers costs of USA/ISI Swimming (an annual cost, expiring December 31 of each year; the USA/ISI fee is nonrefundable) and of entering individual and relay events at swim meets. Any swimmer not registered with USA/ISI Swimming in the current year must pay an additional escrow fee. Unused escrow is refundable at the end of the season by contacting the swim board (escrow).

• Families can offset the cost of future swim team fees by participating in the team’s ongoing fundraising opportunities.

• Swim Team parents for all groups except Pre-Comp are required to volunteer during each of their child’s sessions at all Swim Team hosted meets. Failure to volunteer for any home meet will result in a charge of $100 for each meet session.

FITNESS CLASSES SUSPENSION TRAINING (TRX)

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

Originally developed in 2004 for US Navy SEALS, Suspension Training works every muscle in the body with varying degrees of body weight. Enhance your balance, coordination, range of joint movement, strength, and aerobic fitness. Appropriate for all ages and fitness levels. Small group classes allow for plenty of individual instruction. Shorter class times keep you moving to make each movement better. Suspension training has become an excellent method for building bone and muscle density, particularly in the wrists, lumbar spine, and hips. Classes are progressive in nature as participants become more agile and fit throughout the session.

INTRODUCTION TO SUSPENSION TRAINING Try something new and make a change in your exercise and your body with 30 minutes of TRX suspension training. Learn the basic movements, form considerations for safety and alignment while implementing a completely new exercise program. Balance, strength, aerobic, and range of motion fitness all emphasized.

Based on the classic story by Robert Louis Stevenson and featuring a thrilling score of pop rock hits, Jekyll & Hyde has mesmerized audiences the world over. An evocative tale of two men–one, a doctor, passionate and romantic; the other, a terrifying madman–and two women–one, beautiful and trusting; the other, beautiful and trusting only herself.

A devoted man of science, Dr. Henry Jekyll is driven to find a chemical breakthrough that can solve some of mankind's most challenging medical dilemmas. Rebuffed by the powers that be, he decides to make himself the subject of his own experimental treatments, accidentally unleashing his inner demons along with the man that the world would come to know as Mr. Hyde.

INTRO TO HORSEMANSHIP This class is required for all new students. It covers basic horsemanship skills including safety, grooming, tacking, and basic riding skills, thus building a foundation for our continuing riding program. Three lessons are non-riding. Students will learn to enter a horse's stall and lead the horse from its stall to the arena. They will also learn to tighten the girth and adjust their stirrups, techniques to properly mount a horse, the proper dismounting procedures, and returning the horse to its stall. As students become proficient with these skills actual riding time will increase accordingly. Students and parents should also be aware that due to the nature of the horse, behaviors such as spooking, biting, kicking, bucking, and playing will occur. "How to" handle these situations as a rider are an integral part of horsemanship and will be addressed in lessons. Please note that any session of Group Riding Lesson fees can be pro-rated to accommodate a participant's schedule, such as family vacations, school events, or any absence that would be known at the time of registration. This can only be done in person at the Stable facility. One make-up lesson is offered at the end of the session for one absence.

RELEASE AND HOLD HARMLESS WAIVER

By their very nature, many Park District programs involve body contact, substantial physical exertion, emotional stress, and/or use of equipment which represents a certain risk. It is recommended that you check with your physician prior to participating in Palatine Park District activities. Palatine Park District does not provide insurance protection for participants in Park District activities. Please read the following information carefully and be aware that in registering yourself or your minor child/ward for participation in the above program(s), you will be waiving and releasing all claims for injuries you or your child/ward might sustain arising out of the above program(s). I give my child permission to participate in this program, trip, or activity and hereby waive, release and forever discharge any and all claims against the Palatine Park District or its commissioners, employees, or volunteers for damages and/or injuries to the registrant, which may arise from participation in Palatine Park District programs. EMERGENCY TREATMENT: A minor may not be treated, even in an emergency, except when, in the opinion of the attending physician, a life is in the balance. Written consent is required for all treatment given in any hospital emergency room/center. Consent of a parent or legal guardian is necessary for unmarried minors, under 18, except in cases of extreme emergencies. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: As a parent and/or legal guardian, I do herewith authorize the treatment by a qualified and licensed medical doctor of the above minor in the event of a medical emergency which, in the opinion of the attending physician may endanger his/her life, cause disfigurement, physical impairment or undue discomfort if delayed. This authority is granted only after a reasonable effort has been made to reach me. The release form is completed and signed of my own free will with the purpose of authorizing medical treatment under emergency circumstances in my absence. Please list specific medical allergies, medicines, or other conditions on a separate piece of paper to be attached to this form.

Release and Hold Harmless Statement on registration form must be signed. PARTICIPATION WILL BE DENIED if the signature of adult participant or parent/ guardian and date are not on this waiver.
