When such errors occur, Palatine Park District will do everything possible to correct the situation promptly. Thank you for your patience and understanding when these situations arise.

SECTION YOUTH & |TEEN SUBSECTION GOT SELF-ESTEEM & LEADERSHIP? As parents we want the best for our children: friends, sports, vacations, education, teachers, clothes, technology—the list goes on and on. What about the gifts of high self-esteem and leadership? Self-esteem is how you feel about yourself and a feeling that you are able to handle life every day. It’s believing in your talents and that you have value to offer the universe. When you possess this, it becomes easier to be a leader. Through creative expression in an incredibly fun workshop, kids will have the chance to cultivate self-worth and won’t even realize they are working on self-esteem. Kids will engage in interactive self-esteem booster games such as Lollipop Marathon, King’s Throne, Balloon Bust, Billboard This, Ten Seconds, Money Madness, Campaign Craze, and Toy of Me. A child of any age would love these games! Kids’ emotional “buckets” will fill and be overflowing with confidence when they depart this class. Don’t be surprised if there is a bit more “pep in their step” after this workshop. Research shows that children who had opportunities to build self-esteem as a child will display higher leadership skills later in life. Kids will learn, from a Certified Professional Life Coach, the hottest tips in building self-esteem and being happy leaders. Self-esteem is always a work in progress, but this will be a transformational kick off. In a self-absorbed and competitive world, garnering and keeping selfesteem is sometimes a tall order, but this class will help harness it!

Learn how gratitude helps sculpt the life you want right now. Hoping for more money? Want to get in better shape? Need a batch of new friends? Desire a fancier car? Wondering about a career shift? Maybe an exotic vacation? The Law of Attraction can work when we truly awaken our inner self and apply it. Learn how to extinguish limiting beliefs that slyly sabotage your actions and language. The number one strategy to kick-off change in just one day will be revealed. How to juggle negative family and friends who are clueless regarding dreaming big. Learn the power of a vision board, journal, and gratitude rock. Most attendees report a shift happening within 24 hours of attending and feel re-energized to take action. In a world where technology has us looking down constantly, this inspirational class will potentially have you looking up with more pep in your step!

THEATRE PALPARKS BLACK BOX (18+ YEARS) BEYOND THERAPY Bruce and Prudence are deeply into therapy. Prudence’s macho therapist is urging her to be more assertive while Bruce’s wacky female therapist wants him to meet women by placing a personal ad. She does not fully comprehend that Bruce has a male lover who is not pleased by Bruce’s desire to date a woman: Prudence. Bruce doesn’t know how to handle poor nervous Prudence and Prudence doesn’t know what to make of her unpredictable new boyfriend. They do learn to live beyond therapy in this delightful Off Broadway hit that moved successfully to Broadway.

AVAILABLE ROLES Bruce (M)

Friendly, open-minded, and emotional. His dream is to settle down with a wife and kids...and occasionally Bob.

Prudence (F) Reserved and structured, but insecure. She still believes her perfect man is out there. She just hasn’t found him...yet. Stuart (M)

Prudence’s therapist who has slept with most of his patients. A macho exterior hides what’s really troubling him...

Charlotte (F)

Bruce’s therapist, well-meaning and sweet...but just a bit off.

Bob (M)

Bruce’s lover who finds himself jealous at Bruce’s desire to date while keeping him on the side.

Andrew (M)

A waiter with a dark edge...

FITNESS PRIME FLEX PLAN For older adults and those new to exercise. Your body responds best to a variety of different movements and approaches to movement. Exercise properly and reward your body with positive change. A Prime Flex Punch Card or Unlimited Flex Card gives you walk-in access to the following classes: PRIME BALANCE & STRENGTH: Equilibrium practice is essential to maintaining an independent and healthy lifestyle and is the basis of all other movements. Focus on stability to improve balance, strength, and flexibility while aging. Therapy-based exercises include hip strengthening, postural steadiness, and walking exercises. PRIME INTRO TO TAI CHI: Gentle flowing movements help reduce stress and improve health. PRIME MOVERS LEVEL I: Appropriate low-impact movement for new exercisers and older adults. This class is less complex, using minimum force and for a shorter duration. Exercisers will stay on their feet or have the option of using a chair when needed. PRIME MOVERS LEVEL II: Enjoy all the elements of fitness: strength, aerobics, and flexibility. This class consists of warm-up, minimum force aerobics, body conditioning, stretch, and relaxation cool down. Participants should be able to get up and down from the floor without assistance. PRIME WEIGHTS: This is a full body strength and resistance class for healthy adults of all ages. Aging produces muscle loss and loss of strength; these declines are linked to an increased risk of falls, frailty, and loss of independence. Strength training will help improve or retain quality of life.

FIT START I If a typical exercise class is intimidating, try Fit Start! Specifically tailored to those new exercisers, those away from exercise for a long time, or those carrying excess weight. Class consists of light, low impact cardiovascular exercise, stretching, and toning of the upper and lower body. Physical activity reduces the risk of or helps to manage: • Heart disease

• Depression and anxiety

• High blood pressure

• Obesity

• Diabetes

• Osteoporosis

• Colon cancer

• Weakness or breathlessness

YOUTH BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU Brazilian Jiu Jitsu helps children develop and apply genuine self-defense skills, agility, coordination, strength, and more. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu does not rely on size, strength, or speed and uses a combination of submissions, escapes, and defensive techniques to neutralize dangerous situations. In fact, the techniques taught in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu will help your child defend themselves against a much larger opponent. See your child develop confidence and a positive self-image as they learn new techniques.

ATHLETICS TIGER SHARKS SWIM TEAM PALATINE TIGER SHARKS SWIM TEAM The 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 the Palatine Park District by cash, check, Visa, Mastercard, or Discover. A separate check for escrow costs, payable to Palatine Swim Team, is required, no cash. 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 of $68. Unused escrow is refundable at the end of the season. • 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. • Refunds follow the Palatine Park District policy (page 9).

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.

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. My signature, or my guardian’s signature if I’m under 18, indicates that I HAVE READ AND FULLY UNDERSTAND THE REFUND POLICY AND WAIVER and understand it is required to take part in Park District programs. Signature: __________________________________________________________________________ Date: _______________________________________________________________________ Emergency Name: _________________________________________________________________ Emergency Phone: _________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Please indicate above any medical information (asthma, diabetes, etc.) or food allergies that staff should be aware of.
