Resident input on park projects was more actively sought at public meetings, and volunteers from the community assisted in completing playground installations and planting flower beds. The residents were key participants in the development of Olmstead Park in 1992, by working with the district at public meetings and donating volunteer work hours during the installation of the playground equipment.

Customer Service Pledge

Our satisfaction guarantee is our promise to provide quality parks, facilities, recreation programs and leisure services that meet the expectations of our customers. If you are not satisfied with any recreational program the HEPD provides due to the quality of instruction, the child’s inability to adapt emotionally to the class, or the inappropriate skill level for the registered participant, a full refund will be processed.

To determine that a class does not meet their satisfaction, participants must attend the first two class sessions, but request a refund and fill out all appropriate paperwork before the third class meeting. Refund request forms are available at the Triphahn Center, Willow Recreation Center and Prairie Stone™ Sports & Wellness Center. No processing fee will apply to refunds issued under the Satisfaction Guarantee Policy. If you are not satisfied, we would appreciate your comments, suggestions, or ideas for improvement.

Hoffman Estates Park District Initiatives

The NRPA has identified three values – Conservation, Health & Wellness and Social Equity — to describe how Parks and Recreation agencies across the nation are working in thousands of communities to touch the lives of millions of people. Here at HEPD, our Green Team, HEALTH and Social Equity initiatives parallel NRPA’s three pillars. Here’s how:

Green Team Initiatives Our Green Team works toward NRPA’s Conservation Pillar to reduce the carbon footprint of our facilities, parks and programs and to educate our community on ways to be green.

When you see this symbol, look for tips on how to reduce, reuse and recycle.

HEALTH stands for “Helping Everyone Achieve A Lifestyle that’s Healthy” and represents our efforts to reduce the rate of childhood obesity in our community; consistent with NRPA’s Health & Wellness Pillar. Wherever you see the apple, you’ll find health tips and programs that encourage a healthy lifestyle for all.

Social Equity

Community Commitment

The HEPD remains committed to providing the best recreation and leisure services to our community. With our “satisfaction guaranteed” pledge, residents and their guests can be assured that the HEPD staff will work not only to meet expectations, but surpass them.

Park Board of Commissioners

The governing body of the Park District is comprised of seven elected commissioners who represent the recreational needs of their community for four year, unpaid terms.

Park commissioners have the power to levy taxes within prescribed limits, establish or change Park District policies, sign agreements, award contracts and possess all of the powers similar to those of a board of directors for a public corporation. Park commissioners work as a board to interpret the park and recreation needs of the community, formulate short and long term plans and inform the public of the purpose, worth and extent of the district’s services, parks and facilities.

Board Meetings

At HEPD, we value the philosophy that our parks and recreation programs are for all people – regardless of the color of their skin, age, income level or ability. It’s important that all people have access to parks, programs and facilities that enrich their lives and add value to the community.

Where you see this icon, you’ll see programs, organizations and efforts that demonstrate that value.

In 2014, the Park District celebrates 50 years in existence.

When you see this seal, look for facts and photos that showcase our history of providing fun and recreation that spans five decades from 1964 to the present.

Board Meetings are held monthly at 7:00P at Triphahn Center and Ice Arena.

Letter from the President We hope you are enjoying your summer! In this issue of the Program Guide, you’ll find ways to have fun and be active in the last few weeks of summer and into the Fall, from miles of walking paths in our 70 beautiful parks to special events and programs.

(Page 7) Finally, throughout 2014 we’ve been working on our 5-year Comprehensive Master Plan based on feedback that residents like you gave us during our Attitude and Interest Survey, which was conducted last Fall. A plan is being formulated and we’ll be sharing the results with you over the coming months. Watch our website for more information.

Don’t let a minute of the beautiful weather pass you by. Take advantage of all your Park District has to offer! Wishing you a safe and enjoyable season.

Our Native American lesson will introduce our students to basic figure drawing and a rich history. A colorful elephant graphic and pottery design will teach our students to draw stylized imagery, creating colorful patterns and design. In the cartoon drawing portion sports-related drawings like our soccer and Tae Kwon Do lessons will instruct our students to create action-inspired imagery. We’ll excite their imaginations as we transform sweet candies into fully-realized cartoon characters. Our students will also learn to tell a story through the use of sequential drawings.

Hey Coach!

The success of our Youth Athletic programs relies on the many volunteers who coach our teams. Coaching is a fun and rewarding way to serve your community, either on your own or co-coaching with another parent to share responsibilities and the time commitment. Consider these benefits!

The Hoffman Estates Park District will be offering a youth volleyball league for girls and boys grades 5th - 8th. While having fun is the main goal of this program, developing skills will be encouraged.

Practices will be week nights at various Hoffman Estates locations. Games will be played on Saturday mornings/afternoons starting 11/1. The 7 game season will end Saturday, 12/20. No games 11/29.

A mandatory skills assessment will be held Saturday, 10/11 at the Triphahn Center Gymnasium: 5th and 6th Grade will be from 10:30am - noon, 7th & 8th Grade will be from noon-1:30pm. Register before 10/1 to participate in the skills assessment.

To avoid impulse purchases and over spending at the grocery store, use the hand basket instead of the grocery cart when you’re heading to the store to pick up a few things. This way, when the basket gets too heavy, you’ll head to the check out and be less likely to buy impulsively.

Memorial Tree or Park Bench

A unique way to honor and remember a loved one is with a memorial tree or park bench.

A tree is also the perfect way to commemorate one of life’s milestones, from weddings and anniversaries to the birth of a child. A one-time donation of $600 lets you place the tree of your choice in a park that is special to you. For a Park Bench, a one-time donation of $1,500 buys a new contour style park bench mounted on a concrete pad with a bronze memorial plaque at the location of your choice. Or, a one-time donation of $300 buys a bronze memorial plaque to be mounted onto an existing park bench of your choice.

For more information contact John Giacalone at 847-285-5465.
