President’s Message
by Mike Daniels, President, Schaumburg Board of Park Commissioners As another winter gets underway, nothing beats the flurry of fun waiting at Schaumburg Park District.
Although temperatures are dropping, there’s no reason to let your golf skills cool! Visit Schaumburg Golf Club’s indoor simulators, where you can play more than 40 world-class courses snow, rain or shine (pg. 65).
Bundle up for a season of festive events, exciting activities and amazing classes to warm your spirits during the chilly months ahead. Kick off the holiday season Dec. 1 with The North Pole Holiday Spectacular (pg. 13)—an all ages event featuring the original play “Santa’s Surprise,” face painting, cookie decorating and a visit with the Big Guy himself!
Winter also is an excellent time to experience the picturesque scenes and peaceful atmosphere at Spring Valley Nature Center (pg. 70). Experience an old-fashioned holiday Dec. 1 and 2 at Christmas in the Valley (pg. 14) and partake in activities such as snowshoe walks through the prairie Jan. 19 and 20 during Spring Valley Winter Fest (pg. 15).
Santa is making another appearance Dec. 2 at Schaumburg Airport during Santa’s Flight to Schaumburg (pg. 14). Families will enjoy a delicious buffet breakfast in the airport’s hangar while waiting for Santa’s helicopter! If you miss Santa at one of our events, no worries! We’ve got some pull with the jolly elf and will arrange for him to personally stop by your home for our Santa Visits Dec. 4 and 5 (pg. 14).
Get your workout routine on track this winter with the new Fitness Unlimited Plus membership (pg. 60). Take advantage of the latest classes to keep you active, including Cycle, TRX and Zumba. Or stay in shape in one of SPD’s state-of-the-art fitness centers at the CRC, MRC and STP (pg. 8). Don’t forget to register for the Chilly Chili 5K Race Dec. 1 at Schaumburg Golf Club (pg. 13). Runners will warm up afterward with a delicious chili lunch!
And don’t miss your chance to meet another favorite holiday hero—the Grinch! This year we’re offering two chances to meet the Grinch, with a Grinch-Mas dinner Dec. 14 and Brunch with the Grinch Dec. 15, both at the CRC (pg. 14). Grown-ups also get to enjoy some seasonal surprises Dec. 7 during our new Holiday Adults Only Scavenger Hunt (pg. 14), when teams will explore some of the lesser-known areas of the District. Parents and their little ones are invited to give 2018 the perfect sendoff Dec. 31 at The Sport Center for the Itsy Bitsy New Year’s Eve Countdown (pg. 15). Looking for the perfect gift? Visit two spectacular bazaars offering unique, handcrafted specialty merchandise (pg. 12). Spring Valley Holiday Bazaar takes place Nov. 24 and 25, with Schaumburg Park Foundation’s Holiday Bazaar planned for Dec. 4 at Schaumburg Corporate Center.
Once the holiday hustle wraps up, unwind with events like the Mom & Son LEGO-ri-fic Date Night Jan. 19 at the CRC (pg. 15), the Mother and Daughter Sensational Spa Social Feb. 3 at Bock (pg. 15) and the Dad & Daughter Superhero Dance Feb. 9 at the CRC (pg. 16).
Keep the kids busy when school’s out at our Winter Break Camps (pg. 18). Children ages 6 to 11 are invited to enjoy field trips, games, gym time, swimming and art projects at Way Fun Winter Break Camp at MRC. Camps specializing in chess and LEGO fun also are available, along with rustic adventures at Spring Valley Winter Break Camp. Unwrap the gifts of fitness, time with family and cherished memories at Schaumburg Park District all winter long. The Schaumburg Park District Board of Park Commissioners and dedicated staff wish you a healthy, happy and joyful season! Go Bears!

Northwest Special Recreation Association Providing Recreation Services to Individuals with Special Needs 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 yearround program offerings including sports, camping, social programs and more. Having fun, being included, making friends, learning new things and going to 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.
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 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. For additional information on the Foundation or scholarships, visit SchaumburgParkFoundation.org or call 847/985-2115.

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.

Stephen Mallatratt's ingenious stage adaptation is now entering its 30th terrifying year in London. Robin Herford's gripping production is a brilliantly successful study in atmosphere, illusion and controlled horror. A lawyer obsessed with a curse that he believes has been cast over him and his family by the specter of a Woman in Black, engages a skeptical young actor to help him tell his terrifying story and exorcise the fear that grips his soul. It all begins innocently enough, but then, as they reach further into his darkest memories, they find themselves caught up in a world of eerie marshes and moaning winds. Lunch is included.

Ublique Cabaret Presents The Full Monty
The setting is Sheffield England, once the “City of Steel,” home of a massive steel industry and jobs aplenty. Today, with the industry in decline and the steelworks closed down, there is widespread unemployment and despair. Two unemployed friends stumble upon a Chippendales-like show that’s very popular with the local women. Eventually they decide they too would like to give it a go, but they can’t dance and aren’t what most would call good physical specimens. They have their doubts but are determined to give it a shot. On their way they pick up four other unlikely candidates and begin practicing for the big night. To drum up interest, they boast they’ll go ‘the full monty’ (a phrase meaning ‘all the way’ nude), something they hadn’t planned and aren’t sure they can deliver. Will they? Contains nudity. Lunch is included. Barcode 26275
