President's Letter

Hicks Road Tunnel Volunteers

T

he Park Board wants to thank everyone that has continued to support the Park District staff and programs in the last year. As people look to be outside for some fresh air, the parks are open! And people have definitely been out there enjoying the paths, golf course, pools, and playgrounds. We were hoping to do more to celebrate the Park District’s 75th anniversary.

Instead, the Park District staff learned to pivot with the best of them. From special events that went from live to virtual, or live to DIY, to smaller classes to maintain social distancing, to reserving spots to enjoy the pools, we are proud of the work that the Park District staff did to keep the Park District relevant and engaged with the community. We are strictly following the mandates and recommendations of the Illinois Department of Public Health and the Governor’s office. While recognizing that everyone may not agree with that, we love to see your smiling masked faces back in the parks and facilities. We are definitely looking to embrace the future as COVID-19 gets more under control and we can get back to normal as we learn again what that is.

This year, we welcomed Joe Petricca to the Park Board, and said goodbye to long time commissioner Jay Cozza. Jay is enjoying retirement, spending time with family, and playing pickleball. Join him on Monday nights at Harper College! The Maple Park redevelopment project was completed with the financial assistance of a $400,000 OSLAD (Open Space Land Acquisition and Development) grant. OSLAD is a state-financed grant program that provides up to 50% funding assistance for project costs. Programs like this help us complete projects that are important to the residents and staff, and we’ll continue to look for grants for a variety of applications.

We also rely on volunteers to help with many special events, park improvements, and giving back to the community. In the summer, a group of volunteers dedicated their time to improving the tunnel section of the Palatine trail that goes under Hicks Road. Home Depot donated all of the paint and other supplies for the volunteers to complete this project. If you haven’t seen it yet, visit the Library for a good book, then connect up with the trail behind the library and walk east to Hicks Road. As you go over a new bridge (also completed with grants funds) and curve to the right, you’ll see the beautiful murals that the volunteers designed and painted.

Thank you again to the community for your support and the staff for everything you’ve worked on. To say that the last year and a half has been a challenge for everyone is probably such an understatement. You’ve made it this far. Don’t give up now.

Help us stay vigilant, and let’s play it safe!

—Jennifer Rogers, President

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.

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.

With shiny, multi-colored scales, Rainbow Fish is the most beautiful fish in all of the ocean, and the only one of his kind. When Rainbow Fish refuses to share his vibrant, shimmering scales, the whole ocean seems to turn against the vain creature. Unhappy that no one adores him anymore, the Rainbow Fish seeks out the wise Octopus, who helps him learn that it’s far better to be admired for being kind than for being beautiful.

I'm Trapped in a Musical! All the work done in this class will culminate in a final presentation at Cutting Hall Performing Arts Center. Students will be asked to help with costumes and props.

HELP! I’M TRAPPED IN A MUSICAL! There's something strange going on at Sondheim High School. New transfer student, Norma LaBelle is having trouble getting accustomed to the school's unusual traditions. At any given moment, students and teachers burst into song for no apparent reason. Each time they sing, it sounds almost like a famous Broadway musical. The students sing a celebration of Mondays and even the kids in trouble perform the “Detention Tango.” Principal Lloyd Webber is hiding a secret and enforces strict rules to keep the truth hidden from the students. This show is full of fun surprises and is a delight for fans of Broadway musicals as well as for those new to the genre.

Tech rehearsals will take place April 11-14. Performance will be presented on April 15 and 16. To purchase tickets, visit cuttinghall.org.

INTRODUCTION TO HORSEMANSHIP

Min/Max: 3/6 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.
