WAIVER REGISTRATION/BROCHURE WAIVER & RELEASE IMPORTANT INFORMATION The Carol Stream Park District is committed to conducting its recreation programs and activities in a safe manner and holds the safety of participants in high regard.

The Carol Stream Park District continually strives to reduce such risks and insists that all participants follow safety rules and instructions that are designed to protect the participants’ safety. However, participants and parents/guardians of minors registering for the above listed programs/activities must recognize that there is an inherent risk of injury when choosing to participate in recreational activities/programs.

WARNING OF RISK Recreational activities are intended to challenge and engage the physical, mental and emotional resources of each participant.

Equity Statement Carol Stream Park District provides programs, activities and facilities without discrimination or segregation on the grounds of race, color, religion, national origin, veteran status, age, handicap or disability, sexual orientation or gender.

Did you know that the storm water drains in our strrets drain directly to local waterways? You can help save our streams from pollution by keeping pollutants, such as used oil from cars, cleaning chemicals and even grass clippings (which often contain fertilizer harmful to marine life), out of the drainage system.

Electronics Recycling Now Law A new electronics recycling law came into effect in 2012. The new law requires that most electronic items be recycled and not included with regular trash. DuPage County has several sites available to drop-off electronics for recycling, including: Glendale Heights Public Services Garage, Hanover Park Public Works Facility and Wheaton Public Works Storage Lot. Visit dupageco.org for times and other locations.
