President’s Message

By Sharon DiMaria - President, Board of Park Commissioners

Long days under the summer sun in Meineke Pool, afternoons playing tennis with friends at the Bock outdoor courts and warm evening strolls through Spring Valley’s prairie are memories of summer past as the season comes to an end and calm winds begin to blow into Schaumburg. The reminders of Schaumburg Park District fall programs approaching begin as pools close and treadmills at indoor fitness facilities fill up with avid runners. A cooler day and less humidity won’t stop golfers from visiting Schaumburg Golf Club and Walnut Greens Golf Course. The courses are open through the fall and offer daily tee times. Online tee reservations and SGC pre-paid specials are now available online. The Fourth Annual Links Technology Cup Golf Outing will start at 11 a.m. on Aug. 10. An entry fee of $150 per golfer includes practice range warmup, 18 holes of golf with cart, contests, prizes and a barbecue dinner and beverages by John Barleycorn. Area restaurants will sponsor every other hole and offer food and beverages. The Daily Herald Closest-to-the-Pin Shootout and Woodfield Putt-of-the-Day return as featured contests. Proceeds from the event go towards the Schaumburg Park Foundation’s campaign to renovate the museum at the Spring Valley Nature Center. There are always fun activities planned at Spring Valley. The annual Autumn Harvest Festival returns Oct. 2. Hands-on demonstrations of frontier era and 1880s farm life, crafts and live string music on two stages make this an enjoyable event for the whole family. Make sure you try some of the grilled food, taffy apples and a roasted ear of corn. Yum! Spend some time with the family at the Sept. 24 Sport Center Family Fun Night! It’s a bingo doubleheader this year when Family Bingo and Pizza returns to the CRC on Oct. 14 and Nov. 18. Enjoy games outside of your house!

Other trick or treat offerings include Boo-2U Fest on Oct. 21, which features a DJ, games, snacks and a haunted house for kids ages 9 to 12. Come in costume and receive a gift. The Halloween House Decorating Tour and the Pumpkin Splash will lighten the ghoulish mood of the season. Halloween Boonanza will transform the Community Recreation Center and Safety Park once again into a Halloween carnival on Oct. 31. Do you dare journey to through the haunted house, go for a hay ride, trick or treat or jump in the moonwalk? For the athletes in the Halloween spirit, find a few friends and compete in the Great Pumpkin Halloween Dodgeball Tournament on Oct. 22. Don’t get hit by any flying pumpkins! Don’t forget that Nov. 6 marks the return of From Hog House to Smokehouse. Learn about bacon, have some fun with pork and see how 1880s farmers preserved meat for winter. Work off the candy calories at the SPD Indoor Sprint Triathlon on Nov. 6 at CRC. This action-packed event consists of a 10-minute swim, 15-minute bike and 15-minute run. Winners are determined by the total distance covered. There are hundreds of ways to enjoy the season and spend time with your family. Take a look through the program guide, follow the Park District on Twitter, “like” the District on Facebook and sign up for the bi-weekly e-newsletter on parkfun.com to stay up-to-date with the latest happenings. All programs, classes, leagues and special events are always just a click away at parkfun.com.

Halloween brings out the Park District’s spooky side with something for everyone including the family dog. Bring your pup to the Oct. 15 Howl-OWeen Pooch Parade at Meineke. Dogs should come dressed to impress and ready to be judged for the most unique costume.

The Schaumburg Park District is a member of a cooperative agreement among 16 districts which form the Northwest Special Recreation Association (NWSRA). NWSRA’s team of full-time therapeutic recreation professionals and trained part-time staff offer safe, fun and quality year-round opportunities to individuals with disabilities of all ages and ability levels. Activities benefit participants through increased self esteem, physical, social and recreation skills development, improved fitness and health, experiencing new challenges, making friends and having fun! After school, evening and weekend programs feature cooperative sports and games, individuals and team sports, arts and crafts, fitness, cooking, and creative arts and drama. Camps, trips and special events are available at various times during the year. Inclusion assistance is provided by NWSRA to those individuals who wish to participate in their home district program. When registering for a program, the parent of the individual with a disability should inform the park district (and NWSRA, if desired) of any accommodation needed in order to successfully participate in the program. District staff will then contact NWSRA for assistance. For more information, 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. NWSRA may be contacted at 847/392-2848 (voice), 392-2855 (TTY) or 392-2870 (fax). Check out NWSRA on the internet at www.nwsra.org or www.facebook.com/nwsra.

To assist the District in making these accommodations, contact the director before the start of the program or event to discuss accommodations for a smooth inclusion.

1987 was a very good year. The Cosby Show and Roseanne ruled TV, Madonna was topping the charts with Open Your Heart, Dirty Dancing and (the first) Nightmare on Elm Street were lining ‘em up at the theaters and Michael Jordan was wearing a Chicago Bulls uniform for the third year. Here in Schaumburg, the Nature Museum at Spring Valley opened its doors featuring a well-stocked nature library, interactive displays, mounted examples of local wildlife, theater with slideshow, and even re-creation of a wetland habitat complete with native turtles. If you missed the opening…not to fear! It looks much the same today. Right down to the plastic earphones with scratchy tape recordings, and outdated

displays that are a bit frayed around the edges. Haven’t told your kids (or grandkids!) about 1987? Stop by for a visit. Visited the Nature Museum when you were in school, and want a trip down memory lane? Drop in. We’re always happy to see you. Despite the worn surroundings, the Museum remains a great place to see. However, inspiring new generations toward nature, resource conservation and care of the environment requires more. The Schaumburg Park Foundation* has embarked on a five-year campaign to modernize the museum with interactive

displays and exhibits. Raffles, fundraisers and even a Whole Foods Market community shopping day have been a good start. But it will take your gift, and a village of other people making gifts, to turn the Nature Center into a treasure that will inspire generations about nature, conservation and the environment. Be part of this community goal. When you fill out your Park District registration, check here. To personally make arrangements for a contribution, call 847/985-2115. *The Foundation is a 501(c)3 organization.

Help the Park Foundation Board build a new home for their furry and feathered friends.
