Camp ECHO

Exploring Cary’s Hidden Outdoors

Camp ECHO: Grades K - 5 ECHO Extreme: Grades 6 - 8 This camp is jam-packed with a variety of non-stop activities that will keep your child going for the entire day. The majority of the day is located outside where children play, exercise, gain independence, learn life skills, make friends, and have a memorable summer. In addition to arts, crafts, sports, and games, campers explore the outdoors through fishing, hiking, scavenger hunts, and more. There will also be weekly swim days and field trips. A field trip list is available at carypark.com.

Camp counselors are mature and enthusiastic high school students, college students, and adults who provide a noncompetitive environment for children to relax, have fun, and be kids. Most of our counselors have been with the Park District and the camp program for a number of years.

The youngest age for Camp ECHO is 5 years old and the camper must be entering kindergarten in the fall. If your child is younger than 5 years old, or is 5 years old and not entering kindergarten, please consider Sunshine Camp. Information can be found on page 26.

“Every day our child comes home beaming, exhausted, and excited to tell us about her day and what they did. We love Camp ECHO!” “We love it! We love that the kids are super active all day, engaged, and have time to play with friends. The field trips provide a nice break to the week and the kids love going to the pool. They get to play with camp friends and other friends from school that they run into.”

Meet Me at the Donut Bar Kids Life Coaching Lab

Ages 5 - 13 years EB National Donut Day is June 7 and we are celebrating a couple days later! Have you ever wondered where the idea for the donut originated? We will investigate the history of the donut as we nibble on an assortment of decadent donuts and socialize with new friends. We will also learn when we have a “hole” in our life and how to strategically handle sadness, stress, friendships or other issues. We are calling on some of our favorite donut makers to provide gourmet donuts for this novel workshop. Kids love this light-hearted class and will leave with a few new ideas on how to handle their current “holes” or future potholes they may stumble into. All kids leave with a themed souvenir. This is a co-op program with Crystal Lake Park District and the Lake in the Hills Recreation Department.

CF Get your team together and compete in a recreational softball league. Depending on the number of teams, games are played at Lions Park with game times at 7:00 pm, 8:00 pm, and 9:00 pm. Each team will play each other twice. The number of teams registered in a particular league determines league formats. Post season playoffs are planned for the league.

Registration packets are available in the Athletics section at carypark.com and at the Community Center. A manager’s meeting will be scheduled on the first night of the league at the fields.

Teams must be able to make all time slots available for play; there are no requests for specific game times. This league is sanctioned by the National Softball Association (NSA). 60% of the roster must reside within the Cary Park District boundaries to receive the resident rate.

DOG PARK

Dog Park at

Hoffman Park “It’s very convenient, clean, and a wonderful place to exercise our dog.”

“The dog park is just the right size. Big enough that the dogs can really stretch their legs, but not so big that you can’t keep tabs on the activity throughout the park.”

– Comments taken from Dog Park Member Surveys.

Although the Park District realizes that inappropriate behavior may occur, the Park District reserves the right to suspend or remove participants from programs or facilities if hazardous, disruptive, and/or destructive behavior persists. If a participant is taken out of a program or removed from a facility due to these circumstances, a prorated refund will be issued for the remainder of the program or facility usage.

Minimum/Maximum:

A minimum and maximum number of participants is set for each program. This is to ensure the best possible experience for each participant. The Park District may increase or reduce program size if necessary.

Photos and Videos

Photos and video footage are periodically taken of participants in a class, during a special event, or in the District’s parks and facilities. Please be aware that by registering for Park District programs and activities or by using the Park District’s parks and facilities you agree that any photograph or videotape taken by the Park District may be used by the District for promotional purposes including print and electronic media without further permission and without any compensation to you. All photos/ videos are property of the Park District.

In Case of Oops!

During the course of Park District programs, there can be unforeseen circumstances that force the Park District to change schedules, instructors, combine or postpone programs, adjust facility usage or modify fees. The Park District makes every effort to ensure that the information presented in this brochure is complete and accurate; however, sometimes errors do occur and we apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.

Insurance:

The Park District does not carry medical or accident insurance for program or facility participants. The cost would make program fees prohibitive. Please review your own personal health insurance plan to be certain that you and your family have the proper coverage.

Policies, Procedures and Guidelines:

Additional Park District policies, procedures and guidelines are available for review at the Cary Park District Community Center.

A Note of Thanks:

Thank you to School Districts 155, 26 and 3 for providing facilities in which to hold recreational programs; to Park District Commissioners, volunteers, and staff who devote so much of their time; and to you, the community, for your support.

Fees:

Resident/Non-resident - The first program fees listed in the brochure are for Cary Park District residents. Non-resident (NR) fees are listed second and are the higher rate of the two.

Residents support the Park District through tax dollars, while non-residents pay to participate through higher registration fees. All account balances must be paid in full before registering for new programs.

Fair Share - Those desiring to achieve resident status may pay their “fair share” of taxes based on the taxable value of their home. This entitles an individual to pay in-district fees and register for programs at the same time as residents. Fair share will be applied over a 12-month period. Some exceptions apply, please refer to the Fair Share Guidelines found in the Forms section of carypark.com.

The taxable value of a property is stated clearly on the tax bill.

Fair share in not necessarily for everyone. This has to be determined by you, taking into consideration the frequency of Park District use and the value of your home.

The inquiring individual should provide a copy of their current tax bill to the Superintendent of Recreation for review. The Fair Share amount will be calculated and a written reply will be sent. If you don’t have a copy of your current tax bill, call your taxing township for your home’s taxable value.

Waiver of Fees - A Waiver of Fees program is available to provide assistance to residents with financial hardship. Confidential application may be made to the Superintendent of Recreation. Personal financial records may be requested to verify need.
