The Bolingbrook Park District Board of Commissioners completed an extensive search to find a new Executive Director

Mike currently serves as the Executive Director of the Northern Will County Special Recreation Association (NWCSRA) which provides services to individuals with special needs in Bolingbrook, Romeoville, Plainfield and Lockport. Prior to NWCSRA, Mike served as the Executive Director of the Mokena Community Park District. His other professional experiences include Professional Services Director and Interim Director with the Illinois Park and Recreation Association (IPRA), Program Coordinator with West Suburban Special Recreation Association, Special Projects Assistant and Accountant/Information Technology Coordinator with the Schaumburg Park District, and the Assistant Director and Superintendent of Recreation

“Mike’s varied experience within the field will help guide our team into the future. He is an active listener who is open to hearing what our community needs are,” said Vastalo.

Mike has been a resident of Bolingbrook with his wife, Julie, and his children, Morgan and Joshua, for the past 28 years. They have been active within the park district the entire time. Julie is familiar face within the district serving as a valued preschool teacher.

Morgan proudly serves in the US Army and Joshua is a second year student at Iowa State University. “I am so excited to serve the community that I love.

Is it Allergies?

S

Sniffling, sneezing, watery eyes, and coughing: We’ve all been there. What starts as a tickle in the throat or a sneeze here or there can quickly turn into symptoms that last for days — sometimes weeks. But as common as these symptoms are, it can be hard to tell what exactly is causing your congestion. With spring’s arrival in the Chicagoland area, your symptoms may be allergies.

Allergies are not caused by a virus or by bacteria. Instead, allergy attacks are caused when your immune system overreacts to an allergen like pollen, pet dander, or dust mites. Your body releases too many histamines, which cause symptoms such as: •

Coughing

•

Nasal congestion

•

Runny nose

•

Sneezing

•

Sore throat

•

Watery eyes

Allergies are even more common than a cold: It’s estimated that more than 50 million Americans suffer from some type of allergy.

Seasonal allergies may occur at certain times of the year when allergens are present (trees in spring; grass in summer; ragweed in fall).

Some individuals suffer from environmental allergens, such as dust, mold, or animal dander, which are present year-round.

You can ease your seasonal allergies by avoiding contact with allergens. For instance, limit your time outside when pollen counts are high. Over-the-counter medications such as Claritin or Zyrtec and nasal sprays can help, too.

How Can I Tell If It’s Allergies, a Cold or COVID-19?

You may have allergies if:

Allergies, colds, and the coronavirus may be caused by different sources, but their symptoms are similar. This handy cheatsheet may help you tell the difference.

Symptoms include itchy eyes, rashes, nasal congestion or sneezing

Getting Ready for Golf Season _______________________________

S

Move on to hitting range balls

Spring is finally here! The flowers are starting to bloom. The grass is getting greener. Temperatures have risen (hopefully). But, is your golf game ready for the season? Hopefully you’ve been practicing during the long winter months.

If not, here are a few tips to ensure that you have a safe, productive and enjoyable golf season.

Again, start with shorter clubs and work your way up to the driver. Practice all aspects of your game – especially the short game.

Putting, chipping, pitching and bunker shots require a great deal of feel, which is something that you need to gain back after a long break. It’s a good idea to devote 75% of your time practicing those shots.

Set goals for the golf season

Have they lost their tackiness? A slick grip on your golf club can have a major impact on your golf swing and performance. Increased grip pressure to ensure the club is secure will decrease the speed of your swing and cause a loss of distance.

What is it that you want to achieve? Are you looking to set new low scores? Are you looking for more distance off the tee? Do you want to fix swing faults? Take some time to write down goals for the entire season. It’s always a good idea to set deadlines, as well.

This leads us to our next tip – Remember to have fun!

Practice short swings then full swings

Remember to have fun

Find a good open spot and grab your putter but leave your golf ball in the bag.

Use this time to do a few putts to establish your rhythm and tempo. Afterwards, you can start doing the same with a short iron. Start with 50% swings, then 75% swings and work your way up to full swings. This will get the muscles in your back and torso to loosen up. Aim to complete 100 golf swings a day to build up your muscles and range of motion again. While doing so, make sure that your grip and posture are correct.

Don’t take yourself too seriously. Set realistic expectations. You’re going to be a little rusty. Your scores probably aren’t going to be close to where you want them to be, especially for the first few rounds. With that being said, take it easy on yourself. Try not to get frustrated. Take each stroke as a learning opportunity. Take notes on what you need to work on at the range. Always set aside practice time between rounds. You can have just as much fun on the practice range

Check your grips

Bolingbrook Park District Shines Brighter Thanks to ComEd Grant same lights that were used at the 2023 Super Bowl! The estimated annual energy cost saving is $19,750.

The total cost between both projects was $609,136 and the District paid only $113,250 due to the grant.

Building Projects This year all the lights have been converted to LED at our Buildings & Grounds headquarters at 301 Recreation Drive. They are equipped with motion sensors which will turn off any light after there is no movement after 10 minutes. The

project cost was $48,004 with the District paying $18,732.

Also this year, a total of 32 gymnasium lights at the Bolingbrook Recreation & Aquatic Complex at 200 Lindsey Lane were replaced with LED lights with motion sensors. The project cost was $22,838 with the District paying $12,122.

We’d like to thank ComEd for these grants.

Come on out and reap the benefits of our new lights.

Visit bolingbrookparks.org for more information on the District.

New Playgrounds in May! Light fixtures were replaced at the Central Park tennis courts, football field and softball/baseball fields.

________________________________

Chris Finn, our Buildings, Grounds & Natural Resources Director is pleased to share information on additional grants from ComEd for LED light replacement in various locations within the Bolingbrook Park District.

LED lights are up to 80% more efficient than fluorescent lights. They convert 95% of their energy into light and only 5% is wasted as heat. They also use far less power to provide a strong and consistent output at a lower wattage. On average, at least five fluorescent light bulbs would be discarded in the lifespan of one LED lamp. They reduce the amount of waste going to landfill by 80%.

Sports Field Projects Late last year, the lights were replaced at the Central Park tennis courts, football field, and the softball/baseball fields at 201 Recreation Drive. Features include fully programmable timers, ambient dimming and more effective light focusing, all adding up to an estimated annual energy cost savings of about $17,666.

The Lily Cache Soccer Field lights at 1397 Hassert Road are scheduled to be replaced this spring. They’re actually going to be the

Susan Meier Day Camp, Reach and Enrichment Programs Manager

A smile is all it takes to make Susan Meier’s day. Susan oversees the Day Camp, Reach and Enrichment programs for Bolingbrook Park District. She knows that a smile on the kid’s faces in her programs mean she has done her job well. Her mission to enrich a life has been met. Susan originally planned on becoming a social worker. She was asked to complete 50 volunteer hours in order to move closer to her goal of working within the social work field. She chose to volunteer with the Bolingbrook Park District special events team not knowing it would change her future path. She fell in love with the field. “Until then, I didn’t even realize this was a field I could go to school for, “ said Meier. “I realized I could still help people, but in a different way. Instead, I could help enrich their lives to have fun!”

Susan attended Illinois State University and earned a degree in Recreation Management. Upon graduation, she spent six years working for Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. She assisted with several special events at their theme parks and both water parks. “I worked at Typhoon Lagoon

and learned every position which helped me understand the operation as a whole,” said Meier. She also ran sporting events at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports. Susan eventually decided to come back to Illinois for a position at Fox Valley Park District overseeing their customer service team, child care, café and Lego programs. She then came back to Bolingbrook as the Customer Care Assistant Manager and transitioned into the Day Camp, REACH and Enrichment Programs Manager in 2022.

“My favorite part of working for the Bolingbrook Park District is the family-first culture,” said Meier. “My husband and kids are always welcome, and even encouraged, to attend the events we host, and it’s so wonderful to see and meet the other families in our Bolingbrook community.”

Susan lives in Bolingbrook with her husband, Russ, and children, Liam, Caitlin, and Nolan. When Susan isn’t at the Park District, she loves spending time with friends and family.

Susan can be reached at smeier@ bolingbrookparks.org or 630.783.6644.
