Each fall, hundreds of millions of monarch butterflies migrate from the United States and Canada to Mexico. The monarch migration is truly one of the world's greatest natural wonders, yet it is threatened by habitat loss in Mexico and throughout the spring and summer breeding range in North America. Monarch Waystations are places that provide resources necessary for monarchs to produce successive generations and sustain their migration.

Schaumburg Park District invites residents and civic groups to take part in its AdoptA-Park program. Show community pride and civic responsibility by acting as the eyes and ears of the Park District. A sign with the adopting resident’s or civic group’s name will be displayed at the park. In return, your group will keep the Park District informed of any problems at the park and initiate beautification efforts, including planting flowers and picking up litter. There is no adoption fee. A number of parks are available for adoption. For information, call the superintendent of parks at 847/985-2115.

Schaumburg Park District is committed to conservation of habitats for native plants and wildlife. Monarch Waystations have been established in several parks as demonstrations of this commitment and a way to help the community reconnect with nature.

FOOTGOLF AT WALNUT GREENS

FootGolf is an exciting sport available at Walnut Greens Golf Course. It combines traditional golf with soccer. The goal of FootGolf is the same as traditional golf.

Unlike many sports, FootGolf is played, for the most part, without the supervision of a referee or umpire. The game relies on the integrity of each individual to show consideration for other players and to abide by the rules. All players should conduct themselves in a disciplined manner, demonstrating courtesy and sportsmanship at all times, irrespective of their competitiveness. FootGolf Rates and Schedule: • 9 Holes:...........................$11 • 9 Hole Cart:...................$8 per rider • Soccer Ball Rental:......$5—Rentals are limited. You may bring your own soccer balls. Open play is available Monday through Friday and after 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

Groups wishing to stay beyond their two-hour nature play experience are welcome to visit Spring Valley’s other features – Nature Center, Heritage Farm, 3+ miles of walking paths, including a Nature Play Discovery Trail. • Group fees do not grant exclusive use of the Nature Playground. Bison’s Bluff is open to the public during operating hours. • Note that groups without prior reservations may be turned away IF the Nature Playground is at capacity or other organized groups are present. • Please note that picnic areas at Spring Valley are first-come, first-served.

The bat species we see in Northern Illinois are all insect eaters and those mosquitoes we’re tired of during the summer are among their favorites to eat. Unfortunately, bat species worldwide are facing decreased populations due to habitat loss. By providing a roost, you can help give them a safe and comfortable place to live. You will learn all about bats while building your own bat house to take home.
