President’s Message

Days are shorter, leaves fall and school bells ring. With the change of season, so does the Schaumburg Park District change to autumn events and programs. The Schaumburg Park Foundation helps close the summer with a terrific golf outing! The 8th Annual Links Technology Cup tees off Aug. 12 at Schaumburg Golf Club. Golfers will enjoy a day of competition, lunch on the course from local restaurants with “Taste on the Tee,” a tasty dinner from Chandler’s Chophouse and prizes. The event always sells out, so register today! Flip to page 51 for registration information. Funds raised benefit the Recreation Scholarship Program for needy families and other District initiatives. Take in the scenery at Schaumburg Golf Club and Walnut Greens. New at Walnut Greens is FootGolf, played with a soccer ball. To accommodate this new sport, Walnut now features 21-inch holes on the greens and special tees. A 9-hole round is $13 and cart rental is $8 per rider. Soccer ball rentals are available, but limited. Call Walnut today to reserve your FootGolf foursome. And in other ways to kick off the season… enjoy free music by the Spring Valley Community Concert Band Sept. 12 during Concert at the Cabin (page 72). Families will spend quality time together playing sports and going through an obstacle course Sept. 18 at the Sport Center Family Fun Night, presented by Schaumburg Bank & Trust, a Wintrust Community Bank. Stay warm and roast marshmallows Sept. 19 during Volkening Heritage Farm’s Harvest Bonfire. The evening will be filled with wagon rides, fire-roasted snacks and a lantern-lit tour of the farm (page 72). A new event, Bocktoberfest, is featured on page 72. Stop by Bock Neighborhood Center on Oct. 3 for traditional Octoberfest foods including pretzels, apples, root beer and cider. Autumn Harvest Festival, sponsored by Davey Tree and Whole Foods Market will bring visitors back in time to the 1880s with hands-on demonstrations of frontier-era farm activities, crafts and games (page 73). Pups, children and parents will get into the Halloween spirit with a calendar full of spooky-fun events. The always-popular Howl-O-Ween Pooch Parade will be Oct. 10 on the grounds of the District’s new K-9 Dog Park, 120 Remington Way. Pups should come dressed to impress and ready to be judged for the most unique costume (page 72).

Children will carve pumpkins Oct. 17 during Family Pumpkin Carving at Bock Neighborhood Center (page 73). Prizes will be awarded in various categories. Don’t forget to dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge Oct. 17 at the Great Pumpkin Halloween Dodgeball Tournament at The Sport Center where costumed teams compete. Division information is on page 73. Close the Halloween season Oct. 31 at the fan-favorite Halloween Boonanza, presented by Schaumburg Bank & Trust, a Wintrust Community Bank. The Community Recreation Center and Safety Park will be turned into a Halloween carnival for this fun holiday celebration (page 75). Sing Happy Birthday to your children and let Schaumburg Park District party staff handle the ins and outs of your celebration. A variety of themes are available including puppies, pajama, dinosaur, pirates, basketball, dodgeball and gymnastics. All District parties include dedicated staff members, food, cake and activities. Party theme descriptions begin on page 12. The end of summer brings the end of outdoor pool season but water slides, diving boards and lap pools still are available at The Water Works, the District’s indoor water park. A variety of splashtastic amenities also includes a sprayground, rapid water channel and a whirlpool. Those looking to improve their swimming abilities should check out the variety of swim lessons available for all ages. Backstroke to pages 16-18 for swim lessons and classes. Learn something new this season and enroll in music lessons. Guitar, piano, flute, clarinet and drum are available for adults and children. If instruments aren’t your strong suit, consider elegantly moving around a dance floor through one of the dance courses offered at the District. Look forward to this season’s theatrical performance, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast Junior. Parts are available for ages 7 to 20. Auditions will be held Sept. 15 and 17 at the Community Recreation Center (page 34). Workout outdoors at Volkening Lake. Walk or run the beautiful paths and stop for a workout at the newly constructed fitness area. The fitness equipment available provides a full-body workout including cardio, balance and strength training. Reserve your last tee time, explore Spring Valley, celebrate Halloween and Take Time for Fun during the beautiful, crisp fall days.

Northwest Special Recreation Association

Providing Recreation Services to Individuals with Special Needs The Schaumburg Park District is proud to be a member of the Northwest Special Recreation Association (NWSRA). 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. Throughout the year, the organization hosts a variety of fundraising events that help support accessible transportation, general programs, inclusion opportunities, the Kevin T. Kendrigan Memorial Scholarship program and NWSRA Lightning Athletes. For more information on NWSRA, brochures may be picked up at Schaumburg Park District facilities or at the NWSRA office at Park Central, 3000 W. Central Road in Rolling Meadows.

Americans with Disabilities Act

Schaumburg 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, contact A.D.A Compliance Officer Dan Otto at 847/985-2115 or daotto@parkfun.com. If you or a family member has a disability, and are interested in participating in a program or activity, or if you or a family member require any Park District publications be provided to you in a special format, please advise our staff. To assist the District in making these accommodations, contact the compliance officer before the start of the program or event to discuss accommodations for a smooth inclusion. In addition to programs listed in this brochure, the Park District provides specialized services for people with disabilities through NWSRA.

The Schaumburg Park Foundation supports the mission of the Schaumburg Park District by raising funds at events and through direct donations. Funds are used primarily to support the Schaumburg Park District’s recreation scholarship program which provides funds for family memberships, programs and events to those who might not otherwise have the financial ability to participate in District activities. The Foundation also supports community-based projects such as the renovation of the museum at Spring Valley Nature Center.

Unlike many sports, FootGolf is played, for the most part, without the supervision of a referee or umpire.

All players should conduct themselves in a disciplined manner, demonstrating courtesy and sportsmanship at all times, irrespective of how competitive they may be. FootGolf is a new exciting sport that is available at Walnut Greens Golf Course. It combines traditional golf with the sport of soccer. The goal of FootGolf is the same as traditional golf. Players try to kick a soccer ball into a 21” hole in the least amount of kicks. The player with the lowest combined score at the end of the round wins. 9 holes of FootGolf will be played following a similar layout to golf . FootGolf Rates and Schedule: • 9 Holes:.......................... $11 • 9 Hole Cart:................... $8 per rider • Soccer Ball Rental:....... $5 *Bring your own soccer balls. Rentals are limited. Open play is available Monday-Friday and after 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Please contact the Golf Shop 847/490-7878 to schedule a starting time and mention that you’re playing FootGolf.
