FALL 2012! MISSION STATEMENT

OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE PLEDGE

The mission of the Hoffman Estates Park District is to enhance the quality of life of our residents and guests by providing first class parks, facilities, programs and services through environmentally and fiscally responsible management practices.

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. Please look for our customer comment cards at all district facilities. We appreciate hearing your positive comments, as well as your suggestions for improvement.

OUR COMMUNITY COMMITMENT The Hoffman Estates Park District 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 Hoffman Estates Park District staff will work to not only meet expectations but surpass them.

Freedom Run — Our new off-leash dog park opens in August. It’s the result of three community organizations — the City of Elgin, and the Streamwood and Hoffman Estates Park Districts — working together. Don’t miss the dedication and grand opening ceremony on September 8 (see page 51).

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.

COMMISSIONER

At the Hoffman Estates Park District, we’re looking forward to a fantastic Fall season. Your favorite Fall programs and events are in the works, as are some exciting new programs, and parks! Below are some of the highlights of Fall 2012.

YOUTH ATHLETICS

BASKETBALL LEAGUE Supervisor Chris Evans, 847-285-5429, cevans@heparks.org

The Hoffman Estates Park District Youth Basketball League is a fun, energetic recreational program. The league encompasses practices, clinics and games throughout the season. Your beginner or returning player will have fun, meet new friends and coaches and learn the basics of the game. Your kids will also learn teamwork, sportsmanship and responsibility, all of which derive from being on a team. Divisions are separated into grades (1st/2nd Co-Ed, 3rd/4th Boys and Girls, 5th/6th Boys and Girls, 7th/8th Boys and Girls levels). All girls levels are involved in our “inter-village” league which consists of playing other surrounding park district towns in order to create a large enough league for that specific grade level. All games are played on Saturdays and practices occur during the week. Practice days, times and locations are chosen be the head coach. **Any parents wanting Friendship Forms, need to come in to either Triphahn or Willow to fill them out.**

Games and Practice All games will be played on Saturdays. Practice days, times and locations will be chosen by the individual volunteer coaches. Although the park district cannot guarantee a specific practice day, there is a location on the basketball registration form to specify evenings that your child cannot practice and we will try to accommodate.

Level 1 Gymnastics

Over, under, forward and back--there's an adventure in every class. With the help of their parents, children use incline, rolling and cartwheel mats, along with traditional gymnastic equipment, to improve strength, coordination, balance and confidence. *No class 10/31 and 11/23.

Children learn skills on the traditional gymnastics events, including tumbling, bars, vault and balance beam, all in a controlled environment. Children who have never been in a gymnastics class before should enroll in a level one class. Children who have previously taken a gymnastics class may sign up for level two classes, only if they can demonstrate the required skills of a level two gymnast. Children who are unable to meet the skill requirements of the class will be asked to transfer into a more appropriate class. *No class 10/31 and 11/23

Junior Wolf Pack(3–8 years — Triphahn)

Wolf Pack Development

This one day a week program is to essentially get the new skater familiarized with getting up and down on skates. Learning to work edges by marching, gliding etc. up to the beginning of striding for skating. Much time is given to doing drills that encourage free movement and motion that teaches skills while children are having fun and are unaware they are actually learning. Bike helmet and ski gloves (or similar) required. This is a skating only class. Plastic sticks may be introduced at the end of the session.

(5–15 years — Triphahn)

This very successful two day a week program is ideal for athletes with minimal experience on skates and those younger that have progressed from the starter program. Although the focus in this program is to learn to execute the important Sumo elements of skating, it also includes training in stick work and small games etc. The goal is to prepare players to advance to adding the 3 on 3 Sunday House League games to the next stage of progression. Equipment is available up to certain sizes.

Congratulations to our HEPD Wolf Pack Hockey Club 2012 Winner of the

WOLF PA

The Hockey Development Program encompasses three categories designed to take the new player from learning to stand up on skates to, over time, being able to play on a competitive team. We offer two days a week for a very competitive price believing that skating is one of the most difficult sport exercises to learn and master and needs frequent practice to really begin to enjoy and progress. However if you have to miss a day, no problem! Curriculum is designed to enable students to progress at their own speed. It is always recommended to have a child try a public skate first to ensure they are ready to focus on the process of learning to skate. Contact Randy Jordan, Assistant GM/Hockey Director, for more information on these excellent classes at 847–285–5501 or rjordan@heparks.org.

Your Recreation Education

Active adults and kids should have a snack after exercise to replenish nutrients, refuel for future activity, and help tired muscles rebuild and repair. Try low-fat or fat-free milk and a piece of fruit, a smoothie, or yogurt with fresh fruit. If you work out 60 minutes or more, you may need snacks like a granola bar, a sports bar, or crackers with peanut butter.

As a bridge between free play and competitive play, Coach Pickles’ Jelly Bean Sports is a prescription for sports success. Encapsulated in the Jelly Bean Way is the structure missing from free play and the exploration often absent from competitive sports. Developed by Dr. Brad Kayden, Ed.D., our curriculum focuses on the fun inside building not just sports skills, but also the important life skills of listening, communication and critical thinking. Led by certified Jelly Bean Coach Performers, our Jelly Bean Programs are designed to help children learn how to feel, think and act inside sports environments. This makes kids more coachable and productive at the competitive level later. See you in class!

It was designed for the active older adult, the true beginner, and/or people who are not used to exercising, or people who may be limited physically. The main difference between Zumba Gold and Zumba Basic is Zumba Gold is done at a lower intensity, not as fast, but it certainly is as fun. The same great Latin styles of music and dance are used.

Your Recreation Education

Keeping It Local

Fuel your body with the best fruits and vegetables available – produce grown close to home. Food purchased close to where it was grown is fresher, tastier and more nutritious. That’s because produce begins to lose its nutritional value from the moment it’s picked. So the sooner you eat it after it’s picked, the better. Locally grown produce is kinder to the earth as well, as the food isn’t shipped thousands of miles by truck or airplane. You can find locally grown produce at Farmer’s Markets There are many farmers’ markets in the Chicagoland area (including Elgin, Barrington and Schaumburg) scheduled weekly throughout the season on different days of the week. (see a list of local farmer’s markets at triblocal.com/guideto-local-farmers-markets). Many of the farmers use sustainable agriculture to produce their harvest. Or try a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Farms, CSA members pay in advance to get a share of a farmer’s harvest each week. A CSA membership won’t fulfill 100% of your family’s needs for fruits and vegetables, but it will provide a variety of new and unusual ones, like garlic scapes! (Garlic scapes are the edible, curly tops of the garlic plant.) There are many CSAs in Northern Illinois; some even deliver to your door. Most take new members in the spring, and the amount of the harvest you’ll get depends heavily on the season’s weather. You can find CSA near you at localharvest.org.

Golf Outings

1400 Poplar Creek Drive

847–884–0219

Formerly Poplar Creek Country Club and now Bridges of Poplar Creek Country Club, the name change is derived from several sources. As part of a multi-million-dollar enhancement project that began in 2010, installation of eight, environmentally-friendly wood bridges lends even greater aesthetics to golfers' journeys. Adding "bridges" to the club name also stresses the importance of these bridges taking golfers over critical flood-plain areas allowing the course to remain open even after heavy rains. Not to be outdone, the new bridges adds a golf history lesson to golfers' rounds. Four bridges are adorned with plaques of famous amateur golfers: Bobby Jones, Chick Evans, Samuel Ryder and Babe Zaharias. Playing tribute to these legends' significant contributions to the game "bridges" the gap between the club's storied past, present and future. As a public facility, Bridges of Poplar Creek Country Club feels strongly about the amateur heritage and future of the great game of golf. Generations to come will also enjoy recent enhancements, including 15 renovated golf holes, a vastly expanded golf learning center, a major clubhouse renovation and a new, majestic, outdoor event area with waterfall and pavilion.

Anti-Bullying Policy HEPD cares for the health and well-being of our community and our participants, and will not tolerate bullying or harassment of any kind. The Board of Commissioners has approved a comprehensive Anti-Bullying Policy to address bullying or harassment, and all forms of aggressive and violent behaviors that interfere with a participant’s ability to learn or limits involvement. All administrators, staff, parents, volunteers, and participants are expected to refuse to tolerate bullying and harassment and to demonstrate behavior that is respectful and civil. “Bullying” or “harassment” is defined as any gesture or written, verbal, graphic, or physical act (including cyber bullying via the internet, cell phone, personal digital assistant, etc.) that is dehumanizing, intimidating, hostile, humiliating, threatening, or otherwise likely to evoke fear of physical harm or emotional distress. This also includes forms of retaliation against individuals who report or cooperate in an investigation under this policy. Consequences may include, but are not limited to temporary removal from the program, loss of privileges or program suspension.

Friends of HE Parks Foundation The Friends of HE Parks Foundation is made up of community volunteers who work together to raise money so that more residents can participate and enjoy recreational opportunities, regardless of social, physical or economic circumstances and limitations. Since its creation in 1998, the Foundation through its scholarship fund, has donated tens of thousands of dollars to benefit hundreds of local youth and their families, enabling them to play sports, dance, skate and swim in programs they once could not afford. The Foundation strives to promote events that will raise money to help disadvantaged families of our community be able to enjoy park district programs and facilities. For information on how you can help, contact Peg Kusmierski at 847–310–3617 or pkusmierski@heparks.org.
