POLICIES · POLICIES · POLICIES · POLICIES · POLICIES · POLICIES THE FOLLOWING POLICIES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE BASED ON STATE HEALTH GUIDELINES AND RESTRICTIONS. IN ADDITION, DATES, TIMES, FEES, MINIMUMS, MAXIMUMS, AND OTHER DETAILS PERTAINING TO PROGRAMS AND SERVICES MAY ALSO CHANGE AS A RESULT OF ONGOING COVID-19 MITIGATION. Conduct 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.
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 Anti-bullying 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: Jim Holder, 148 W. Illinois Avenue, 847.705.5131, jholder@ palatineparks.org or Colleen Palmer, 250 E. Wood Street, 847.496.6232, cpalmer@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.
ADULT SUPERVISION
When not participating in a class, children under 7 years old must be accompanied by an adult while in Park District facilities.
CHILD ENDANGERMENT
Any authorized person who exhibits signs of an impaired condition due to alcohol or drugs will not be allowed to leave a program site with the child/children.
SMOKING ORDINANCE
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 found on palatineparks.org. 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.

SOMETHING ROTTEN!
By John O'Farrell and Karey Kirkpatrick and music and lyrics by Karey and Wayne Kirkpatrick We are Back! After COVID-19 caused us to shut down last year the night before we opened, this cast and production team have put the band back together to remount the production of, Something Rotten! This show is a hysterical, joyous celebration of everything you love about Broadway. Welcome to the Renaissance, where the Black Plague has ceded power to the Puritans, farthingales and codpieces are the latest fashion trend, and the biggest celebrity in England is a playwright named William Shakespeare. In the midst of all this excitement, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are trying to keep their acting company afloat. In a desperate attempt to out-Bard the Bard, Nick consults with a soothsayer, who informs him that the future of theatre involves acting, singing, and dancing–sometimes all at once! As the Bottom brothers strive to write the world’s very first “musical”, they find themselves caught in a bitter battle with the Bard and the play's the thing. Officially, Something Rotten! is appropriate for ages 8+. Children under the age of 4 are not permitted in the theatre.

INTRODUCTION 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. Min/Max: 3/6 Day Date
