Board of Park Commissioners

President’s Message

By Robert Schmidt, President, Board of Park Commissioners If you’re tempted to spend those cold, snowy days lazing in front of the fire, the Schaumburg Park District has endless opportunities to take the lazy out of winter.

Throughout this brochure, you will notice a new feature called BCUZ Buzz. The District supports your efforts to exercise and eat healthy and we hope you like these friendly motivators. Sometimes, it’s all that’s needed to get us off the couch and onto the elliptical machine or walking track! BCUZ Buzz was created to showcase the why behind the District’s healthy eating programs, athletic events, sports programs, fitness centers, personal training and other activities.

Robert Schmidt President

The new health and activity blurbs correlate with a new show planned for WSPD-TV line-up: BCUZ-TV. The new show coming this winter will showcase the top features of everything Park District and Schaumburg related. The show will be featured daily at 7 a.m., noon, 7 p.m. and midnight on Comcast Channel 15, WOW Channel 14 and AT&T Channel 99.

Episodes also will be online at parkfun.com.

You might be nice and toasty indoors watching new Park District cable programming, but let our healthy and active message move you outdoors! Snowshoe rentals are available at Spring Valley beginning Dec. 1. Lace up a pair of snowshoes and explore the snowy 135-acre nature sanctuary. It’s just one great Schaumburg CAN (Children-Activity-Nutrition) program coming this winter. Take a peek through the guide and spot the CAN logo for more programs that guarantee a good sweat!

Sharon DiMaria Commissioner

It wouldn’t be winter without a plethora of holiday programs. The beginning of December is packed with the poochcentric Jingle Paws on Dec. 8, a journey to Christmases past at Spring Valley Dec. 1 and 2, Santa arriving by helicopter to Schaumburg Regional Airport Dec. 2 and the holiday hit, Twas a Saturday Night Before… on Dec. 1. Other holiday programs include the holiday house tours and home visits from Santa.

December also is the time of gift-giving and we’re full of ideas! Give the gift that lasts forever this year – a Tribute Park brick! Tribute Park at Volkening Lake commemorates and honors memories, special events and achievements of Schaumburg residents and others who make a positive impact on the community. Click to give a personally engraved brick at schaumburgparkfoundation.org. All proceeds benefit the Schaumburg Park Foundation.

The Foundation also will raise funds at the annual Holiday Shopping Bazaar Dec. 4 at the Schaumburg Corporate Center.

Hand-crafted items and household gifts will be for sale from area crafters and artists. It’s a great place to find a unique present!

The District’s gift cards also make a great gift. The cards are available for purchase at any facility and never expire. Gift cards can be used for registration, greens fees, food concessions and at the golf shops.

Mike Daniels Commissioner

The post-holiday lull will allow for parents and children to bond at the Jan. 18 Mom and Son Country Western Date Night and the Feb. 16 Dad and Daughter Sweetheart Ball. Disney’s The Little Mermaid Jr. will delight audiences at the Community Recreation Center.

From new youth events including the Shamrock Scramble to returning teen staple The Party’s Here, the District offers plenty of programs for children. Everyday Science will inspire interest while a winter campfire at Merkle Cabin allows children to hike through the woods and practice pioneer skills.

If winter is getting you down, look ahead! The spring program guide will blossom on your doorstep in February packed with spring programs and summer camps. Don’t forget that information on all District programs, classes and special events are just a click away at parkfun.com.

David Johnson Commissioner

The Board of Commissioners and the Park District staff wish you and your family an enjoyable, healthy and happy holiday season. Stay warm, fit and happy!

Park Board Meetings

The Schaumburg Park District Park Board meetings are the second Thursday of every month at 8PM at the Jerry Handlon Administration Building, 235 E. Beech Drive, Schaumburg.

Throughout the northwest suburbs, NWSRA is the leader in providing outstanding recreational opportunities for children and adults with disabilities. NWSRA’s team of full-time therapeutic recreation professionals and trained part-time staff offer a multitude of year-round program offerings including sports, camping, social programs and more. Having fun, being included, making friends, learning new things and going new places are just a few of the benefits of NWSRA programs!

Inclusion assistance is provided by NWSRA to those individuals who wish to participate in their home park district program. When registering, the parent of an individual with a disability should inform the Park District (and NWSRA, if desired) of any accommodation needed in order for the individual to successfully participate in the program. Park District staff will contact NWSRA for assistance with the accommodation.

Special Leisure Services Foundation, the fundraising arm of NWSRA, partners with public and private corporations, foundations and individuals to support and promote outstanding recreational opportunities for children and adults with disabilities.

Wondering about the impact of aqua aerobics on the body? When immersed to the waist, the human body bears just 50 percent of its weight. At chest level, the number reduces to around 25 to 35 percent and with water all the way to the neck, humans only bear 10 percent of their weight. The other 90 percent is handled by the pool.
