Proceeds from Park Foundation events benefit the Schaumburg Park District’s scholarship program. Each year, this program provides funds for family memberships, programs and events to those who might not otherwise have the financial ability to participate in District activities. For more information on the scholarship program, including eligibility, please contact the District, 847/985-2115.

President’s Message

Synch up with the seasons at the Schaumburg Park District, where programming seamlessly segues from snowy-weather fun to springtime adventures. Community garden plots will be tilled and ready for planting by around mid-April, weather permitting. The environmentally-minded may also want to check out the District’s Adopt-A-Park program. Spring special events include the popular Sugar Bush Fair, Shamrock Scramble, Bunny Bash, Family Egg Decorating Night and Bunny Visits, all scheduled for March. April highlights include a Canine Carnival, Sports Center Family Fun Night, Flying 4 Kids Kite Fly and a program designed to celebrate Schaumburg’s multicultural heritage called A Garden of Diversity. For residents 13 and older who want to put their singing talents to the test, the District presents Schaumburg Idol 2015. Auditions for the competition will be held on April 23. On April 12, SPD music students will present their Spring Recital. Spring also means the arrival of spring break, when the District offers an assortment of day camps for children, including one focused on the game of chess and another that gives campers a chance to use LEGO robotics. In addition to an already full complement of team sports, athletic competitions, aquatic endeavors, cultural arts activities, martial arts and fitness classes, the District has added several new offerings this spring, alongside old favorites. At Spring Valley, where fun, recreation, education, history and conservation intersect at the Vera Meineke Nature Center and the Volkening Heritage Farm, the District introduces a new program for children called Budding Naturalists (p. 68), a chance to build birdhouses in a class called Pigeon Penthouse and an opportunity to learn about rabbits’ habits in the Playful Cotton Tales class (p. 69). New family adventures available at Spring Valley include a composting class called Family Worm Farmers (p. 68) and a class called Letterbox Adventure (p. 68), where hidden clues lead the way along the center’s trails. In anticipation of summer’s arrival, tickets for the 2015 Solstice Hop & Vine Fest go on sale April 1. Illinois wines and beers will be featured at the June event, a fundraiser for the Schaumburg Park Foundation’s scholarship program. The spring thaw is always a special time for golfers. The District offers advanced reservations, league play, lessons and youth clinics at the 18-hole Schaumburg Golf Club. For a more informal experience, the 9-hole Walnut Greens course offers reserved tee times, clinics and lessons. Play is open to residents and non-residents alike; residents get a reduced Club Rate fee. For a deeper discount, residents may purchase a SPD Golf ID card (p. 53). A relatively new entry into the District’s Cultural Arts programming called BeMoved starts participants out with therapeutic movements that flow into an eclectic mix of dance styles (p. 33). Looking for traditional dance instruction? The District presents two brand new classes from Arthur Murray of Schaumburg. One focuses on the waltz, tango and foxtrot while the other gets down with swing, salsa and the cha cha. Several new early childhood classes have also been added (pgs. 40-44). So get out on the links and in the parks, visit the facilities and get reacquainted with nature as spring blooms at the Schaumburg Park District. George Longmeyer, President, Schaumburg Board of Park Commissioners

Catch on!!! Balloon Ball is played like soccer with kids being allowed to pick up the ball and run with it, or throw it, or kick it in one of the two goals for a score. The action is a bit faster, with fewer rules than soccer so kids are not being corrected as much in this new fast-paced game. Kids will be taught coordination and balance along with the importance of exercise that their bodies need. Kids just love this new game that was created by Kids First. Program takes place outdoors. Classes cancelled due to inclement weather will have equal time added to remaining days of program; this may result in changes to class times.
