DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE Explore with your Parks and Recreation Department this summer! Lincolnwood is a community that is committed to quality living and this commitment has created your Parks and Recreation system – a wonderful network of community and neighborhood parks, bike paths, recreational facilities, programs and events. As we settle into the warm, bright and endless days of summer we look forward to providing you with exciting summer activities to help you make the most of your leisure time.

We want our community to have the best summer. With the warmer weather and sun shining, it’s the perfect time to pick up a new activity or try something new. It can be as simple as starting to walk more, take swim lessons, trying pickleball or playing Disc Golf at our nine-hole disc golf course at Centennial Park. Take a walk on our wonderful community recreation paths: the Valley Line Trail, Centennial Park Trail or the Union Pacific Path. Learn to swim at our beautiful Proesel Park Aquatic Center. Play Pickleball at the Proesel Park tennis courts. Pickleball is a sport that combines tennis, badminton and ping-pong and provides a fun, active exercise that can be played with friends and family.

Evening Practice Begins June 4 Monday-Friday 5-6:30pm

STROKE CLINIC Our clinic is designed to accommodate swimmers who have basic ability in freestyle and backstroke. This is not recommended for those who want a learn-to-swim program. Our swim team has swimmers age five to 18 years with different levels of accomplishment. If you have any questions, please contact Jim Schick at babaramdas4@gmail.com Our main goal is to make the transition from short course (25 yards) to our long course pool (50 meters).

We do this by giving each swimmer the opportunity to improve their skills and technique so that they may swim more efficiently with less struggle and less wasted energy. This will give each swimmer the opportunity to have more fun with less effort. New swim team members must register for the Stroke Clinic.

The progression through the four strokes (stroke technique, reviewing drills, stroke components, starts, turns and finishes) is designed for those that already have a basic skill level. Our goal is to expose everyone to all four strokes and introduce the beginning swimmer to some of the components of each stroke when they are ready for them. During any session there will always be some freestyle for all levels, and in each successive session new strokes and techniques will be added as swimmers progress at their own pace. Coaches may adjust swimmers to other lanes from time to time during these two weeks depending on the skills the coach feels an individual swimmer needs to improve.

Session I: Freestyle May 21+22: 4:30-6pm The first two days will be devoted to freestyle only. We will have lanes from beginning levels to advanced.

Session II: Backstroke May 23+24: 4:30-6pm We will continue freestyle and also begin backstroke for those who are ready, as well as introduce backstroke components to some beginning levels.

Session III: Breaststroke May 25+29: 4:30-6pm We will continue freestyle and backstroke and also begin breaststroke for those who are ready, as well as introduce limited breaststroke components to some beginning levels.

Session IV: Butterfly May 30+May 31: 4:30-6pm We will continue freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke and also begin butterfly for those who are ready, as well as introduce limited butterfly components to some beginning levels.

Session V: Starts & Turns June 1: 4:30-6pm Starts and turns may also be covered by the coaches at their discretion during each stroke session.

Location: Proesel Park Family Aquatic Center Program #: 206611.A Fee: $75

THOR GUARD LIGHTNING DETECTION SYSTEM When a Threat is Detected • Warning horn will sound with an uninterrupted 15-second blast and a strobe light will flash when there is the potential for a lightning strike within the coverage area.

What Qualifies as Appropriate Shelter • Inside buildings, hard-top vehicles or other lightning protected facilities and amenities • As a last resort, seek low-lying areas or dense woods

• Once a threat is detected, the system continuously updates data about energy in the air 50 times per second to see if the atmosphere still retains the potential energy necessary for a lightning strike.

What to Avoid • Open areas/isolated trees, overhead wires/power lines, water, elevated ground, metal, maintenance machinery,wire fences, open top or soft top vehicles and a temporary tent structure.

• Upon hearing the horn blast and/ or seeing the strobe light, park users must leave the park and seek appropriate shelter.

40 |

When the Threat has Diminished • The horn will sound three short 4-second blasts and the strobe light will turn off.

• The horn signals that normal activity may resume.

Thor Guard Location Proesel Park Family Aquatic Center Other Non-Covered Locations • Signal horns may not be at your site, but at a site within ear shot. If you hear the alarm, please leave the park immediately.
