Board of Park Commissioners

President’s Message

By Robert Schmidt, President, Board of Park Commissioners SPD is 50! That’s 50 years of amazing parks, innovative programming and terrific facilities…with more to come. Throughout the year, you’ll see a variety of programs and events to celebrate this milestone and our accomplishments over the past half-acentury. Just look for the 50th anniversary logo to find events and programs with a “golden” touch.

Robert Schmidt President

Because our Why is YOU, we’re focusing on our community partnerships. At each monthly meeting of the Park Board of Commissioners, we’re recognizing the agencies and organizations that have enhanced our services to you including the Schaumburg Athletic Association, the education community, Spring Valley Nature Club, the Village of Schaumburg and others. And speaking of Spring Valley…the new exhibits are in at the nature center museum. A special thanks goes to the Schaumburg Park Foundation for years of hard work raising funds to make it happen. Dedicated on Feb. 6, these amazing interactive exhibits will delight and inform. It wouldn’t be spring without Sugar Bush Fair! Spring Valley’s annual pancake breakfast presented by Whole Foods Market celebrates nature’s sweet gift of maple syrup March 16 and 17. Guests will learn about maple syrup production and visit a pioneer sugar camp after filling their tummies with delicious organic goodies. Spring Valley continues to celebrate the arrival of spring at a sunset fire and picnic on April 6, a busy springtime day at Heritage Farm on April 14, the native plant sale on May 5 and a new barn dance event on May 18.

Sharon DiMaria Commissioner

The Bunny hops into Schaumburg for the spring carnival March 23 at the Community Recreation Center, home visits March 26 and pool egg hunts March 28 at The Water Works. We always hope Bunny brings warm, spring weather for the carnival! Get your legs pedaling at two great Park District events. Hop onto bikes for the annual Fahrrad Tour Von Schaumburg Bike Ride and Picnic. The free one-hour tour of Schaumburg’s bikeways for all ages kicks off May 19 from Blackwell Elementary School. Younger cyclists also can show off their skills at the May 22 Bike Rodeo at Safety Park. Both events encourage healthy activity and fitness outdoors!

Mike Daniels Commissioner

New events and programs are aplenty this season! Shamrock Scramble will have the area’s littlest leprechauns searching for four-leaf clovers and winning prizes on March 17 while the whole family will decorate eggs on March 22 at Bock Neighborhood Center. Spring Valley’s new programs include chair and restorative yoga for adults, egg hunts and turtle education for the entire family, and bird watching for children. New fitness programs like Fitness MMA Conditioning and STP Circuit Training will help fitness fanatics prepare for the June 2 Home Run 5K and the July 7 Triathlon and Duathlon. Returning spring special event favorites include the Canine Carnival for pooches and their humans on April 6, the Garden of Diversity multicultural fair with School District 54 on April 13 and the Flying 4 Kids kite fly and picnic May 5.

David Johnson Commissioner

The cultural arts department is always busy singing, painting and dancing! Cultural Arts will take the District back to its 60s roots with the production of Bye Bye Birdie this July. If you have a singing voice that would win a reality show and acting talent, tryout May 19 or 20 at the Community Recreation Center. Just love to sing? Audition for this year’s Schaumburg Idol. The new season will begin airing this summer on WSPD-TV and parkfun.com.

Park Board Meetings
