In whatever capacity, volunteers bring a smile and a special touch to the Park District. Thank you! You are appreciated beyond measure! Out of District Brochure Mailings: The Tinley ParkPark District extends its sincere apology to any of its neighbors for any inconvenience because of the United States Postal Bulk Mailing regulations.

Age Appropriateness: Recreation programs are designed for specific age groups as listed in the program description. Birth certificates are required for first-time registration of any child age 15 and under. Behavior Policy: The Tinley Park-Park District has a behavior policy relative to inappropriate behavior. Inappropriate behavior is defined as that which disrupts a recreation program or general recreation and requires a supervisor to call for a stop of the behavior due to its effect on other participants or the supervisor’s ability to conduct a program. Such behavior may call for immediate and/or permanent dismissal of the participant. Facility rules and usage guidelines also apply. Photos and Videos: Participants or their parents (if participant is under 18), permit the taking of photos, audio and video tapes during Park District activities for publication and use as the Park District deems necessary.

Don Giovanni—seducer, philanderer and libertine who takes what he wants and lives only for his own pleasure. He is the antihero in Mozart’s drama of lust and revenge surrounded by memorable characters, including his servant Leporello and the three women he encounters: fiery Donna Elvira, tormented Donna Anna and impressionable Zerlina. Filled with thrilling music and drama, including a finale so overpoweringly dramatic that it changed music forever, Don Giovanni is celebrated as the perfect opera.
