Board of Park Commissioners

President’s Message

By Robert Schmidt, President, Board of Park Commissioners Just as sure as the northerly winds bring cooler temps, autumn ushers in fall programs at the Schaumburg Park District. Tee off and win big at the Fifth Annual Links Technology Cup Golf Outing on Aug. 8 at Schaumburg Golf Club. An entry fee of $150 per golfer includes practice range warm-up, 18 holes of golf with cart, contests, prizes and a barbecue dinner and open bar by John Barleycorn. The event would not be complete without Taste on the Tee featuring area restaurants at every-other-hole serving food and beverages. The Daily Herald Closest-to-the-Pin Shootout and Woodfield Putt-of-the-Day contests add immeasurable fun. The golf outing benefits the Schaumburg Park Foundation’s campaign to renovate the museum at the Spring Valley Nature Center. Robert Schmidt President

Get your name in brick! The District is engraving paving stones and benches at Tribute Park at Volkening Lake. It commemorates and honors memories, special events and achievements of Schaumburg residents and others who make a positive impact on the community. Click for your brick at parkfun.com. Proceeds from the project also benefit the Foundation. Schaumburg CAN (Children – Activity – Nutrition) continues to keep kids active and healthy with the Sept.22 Sport Center Family Fun Night and a multitude of weekly T-ball, basketball, volleyball, soccer and tennis classes. Take a peek through the guide and spot the CAN logo for programs that guarantee a workout! And the District has plenty of ways to keep the whole family fit. From fitness centers and the Fitness Unlimited program to indoor cycling and yoga, you and your family can stay active. Affordable membership options are available for the fitness centers and a variety of low cost fitness classes are held daily. If you’re missing your workout at Meineke Pool, swim a few laps at The Water Works. The indoor water park is open all year!

Sharon DiMaria Commissioner

The always-on-the-go seniors have another action packed season. Active seniors will kick off fall by taking over the Community Recreation Center and Friendship Village during the Silver Games from Sept. 11 to 14. The friendly competition for ages 60 and older includes bowling, swimming, golf and many more games. Club 55 fitness classes, tasty luncheons and trips to Chicago and the latest musicals will fill up the rest of their season. New programs are aplenty this autumn. Children can find their passion for cartooning and interior design in new cultural arts classes while adults learn about accidental weight loss and waking up their gluteals in fitness classes. Spring Valley also has a full slate of new adult programming including classes on fall vegetable gardening, restorative and chair yoga, and pilates mat. It never hurts to learn something new and get out of the house! Watch history come to life at Spring Valley! Whole Foods Market will kindly sponsor the Oct. 7 Autumn Harvest Festival and Nov. 4 From Hog House to Smokehouse. Hands-on demonstrations of frontier era and 1880s farm life, crafts and live string music will make Autumn Harvest Festival an amusing event for all ages. The pig-centric From Hog House to Smokehouse will educate visitors on where bacon comes from and how to preserve food for the winter like 1880s Schaumburg residents did. Relax this season with your loved ones at Family Bingo and Pizza on Oct. 12 at the CRC. Enjoy games and family time in the community!

Mike Daniels Commissioner

Halloween always brings out the Park District’s spooky and wacky side with something for everyone including the family pup. Bring your dog to the Oct. 13 Howl-O-Ween Pooch Parade at Meineke. Dogs should come dressed in their Halloween best and ready to be judged for the most unique costume. Humans can dress up, too! The new Halloween favorite, Family Pumpkin Carving, returns Oct. 20 to Bock Neighborhood Center with another afternoon full of pumpkin seed messes and grinning jack o’lanterns. Other haunted happenings include Boo-2U Fest on Oct. 26 for pre-teen vampires ages 9 to 12, the Halloween House Decorating Tour on Oct. 22 and Pumpkin Splash on Oct. 25. It’s not All Hallow’s Eve without the annual Boonanza which transforms the Community Recreation Center and Safety Park into a Halloween carnival on Oct. 31. What’s scarier: the haunted house or the amount of candy you’ll eat this Halloween? Work it off at the Great Pumpkin Halloween Dodgeball Tournament on Oct. 20 at the Sport Center or the SPD Indoor Sprint Triathlon on Oct. 21 at CRC. Nothing like a little sweat to warm you up as the season grows colder. Enjoy the season and spend time with your family in one the District’s many programs. 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 connected. An abundance of information and registration for programs, classes and special events is always just a click or tap away at parkfun.com.

To meet these needs, Schaumburg Park District has established early childhood programs that enhance your child’s development.
