President’s Message

Sharon DiMaria Commissioner

David Johnson Commissioner

George Longmeyer Commissioner

Welcome to the Schaumburg Park District’s fall season of programs, events and activities, and the continuation of our celebration of 50 years of community fun and recreation.

Gusts of cooler autumn air bring in exciting special events and programs for the whole family. From A Haunting in the Valley and all the Halloween favorites to busy fitness centers and active indoor fields at the Sport Center, an action-packed season is in store at the District!

The Park Foundation’s Links Technology Cup tees off Aug. 14 at Schaumburg Golf Club. Golfers will enjoy a day of competition, lunch on the course from local restaurants with “Taste on the Tee,” delicious dinner from Chandler’s Chophouse, Grille and Banquets, prizes, and the awarding of the coveted Links Cup to the day’s top foursome. The event always sells out, so register today!

Fall is a wonderful time to take a stroll through Tribute Park at Volkening Lake. Autumn colors complement the memorial pathway stones. Visit schaumburgparkfoundation.org to purchase a brick to honor a loved one, a cherished memory, or other special occasion.

The District has a new way to stay connected on the go! ParkFun for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch is now available on the App Store. This free application, designed and developed by Links Technology Solutions, Inc., connects users with timely information about park locations, field conditions, facilities and fitness opportunities.

Search ParkFun on the App Store, or visit www.parkfun.com/app. It’s a great resource! The Android app is in development for release soon.

New programs are plentiful this season! Sensational Smoothies will teach little ones healthy eating. Rainbow Adventure will have them searching for colors in nature at Spring Valley. For history buffs, Sausage Making 101 for adults will teach 1880s preservation methods. For those looking for a deeper connection, try Getting Grounded: Yoga Techniques for Vibrant Living.

Returning favorites include the monthly TPH program for junior high students, FitQuest, senior trips, Barracuda Swim Team and swim lessons.

Spring Valley celebrates 30 years of serving the community with a birthday celebration and concert at Merkle Cabin on Sept. 14. The special events keep going with Autumn Harvest Festival on Oct. 6 and From Hog House to Smokehouse on Nov. 3 at Volkening Heritage Farm. Both events are sponsored by Whole Foods Market in Schaumburg.

Boo! Get ready for some fun frights! Costumed pups kick off the Halloween season Oct. 12 with tricks, an agility course and costume contest at the Howl-O-Ween Pooch Parade. Family Pumpkin Carving returns Oct. 19 to Bock. Try to carve the winning pumpkin this year! The Water Works will be filled with pumpkins Oct. 26 during the annual favorite, Pumpkin Splash. Residents will deck their homes out in spooky ways for the Halloween House Decorating Contest and Tour Oct. 28. The Halloween event of them all, Halloween Boonanza, turns the Community Recreation Center and Safety Park into a carnival Oct. 31.

And the 50th Celebration continues. I’d like to congratulate the anniversary community partners already recognized this year including the Schaumburg Athletic Association in January; elected officials/committee commission members in February; Schaumburg Community Consolidated School District 54, Township High School District 211, Harper College and the home school community in March; the Schaumburg Boomers Baseball team in April; the Schaumburg Bicycle Club in May; and the Schaumburg Park Foundation in June. The monthly recognitions will continue at Park Board meetings through 2013.

Have a healthy, lively and exciting fall! The holidays are just a snowflake away!

Northwest Special Recreation Association Providing Recreation Services to Individuals with Special Needs

The Schaumburg Park District is proud to be a member of 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 year-round program offerings including sports, camping, social programs and more. Having fun, being included, making friends, learning new things and going 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.

Special Leisure Services Foundation, the fundraising arm of NWSRA, partners with public and private corporations, foundations and individuals to support and promote outstanding recreational opportunities for children and adults with disabilities. Throughout the year, the organization hosts a variety of fundraising events that help support accessible transportation, general programs, inclusion opportunities, the Kevin T. Kendrigan Memorial Scholarship program and NWSRA Lightning Athletes.
