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 the school year comes to a close and the days become warmer and longer, summer is the perfect time to experience everything that Parks and Recreation has to offer in Lincolnwood. Your Parks and Recreation Department offers a variety of day camps that will make your child’s summer a fun and memorable one. Lincolnwood Sumer Day Camp, an American Camp Association (ACA) accredited program, provides a safe, engaging, affordable and accommodating environment for children ages 3 to 15. Learn more about Lincolnwood Summer Day Camp at www.recreation.lwd. org/camp, or pick up a guide in the Parks and Recreation office. Whether you want to lounge, swim or cool off on a hot summer day, Proesel Park Family Aquatic Center is the place to be. Our expansive, beautifully landscaped aquatic center provides water recreation for the whole family and features a large deck with lounge chairs and shade structures, three pools, slides, interactive features, diving boards, concession stand, theme nights and more. The aquatic center opens for the season on Saturday, June 3 and will be open through Monday, September 4. Also, mark your calendar to set sail in our very first cardboard regatta boat race on Sunday, August 27 for ages 10-17 and sign up to participate in our 100 Mile Swim Community Challenge. Thursday evenings in June and July really heat up with live music in Proesel Park at the Lincolnwood Summer Concert Series. So gather family and friends and head out with your lawn chairs, blanket and picnic basket for these sensational outdoor events. Explore with us this summer and we promise to keep you busy, happy, healthy, and entertained all summer long! Here are some ideas: • Walk, jog or bike our beautiful community bike and pedestrian paths: the Valley Line Trail, Centennial Park Trail or the Union Pacific Path. • Join a softball team, play Pickleball, a sport that combines elements of badminton, tennis and table tennis at the Proesel Park tennis courts, or play Disc Golf at our nine-hold disc golf course in Centennial Park, and don’t forget to get active with our new Lincolnwood walking initiative. • .Participate in our Park Passport program which rewards you for visiting each of Lincolnwood’s 13 parks. If you have a question, comment, or idea, please give us a call.

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. Location: Proesel Park Family Aquatic Center Rain Location + Dates: TBD

May 22+23: 4:30-6pm Session I: Freestyle The first two days will be devoted to freestyle only. We will have lanes from beginning levels to advanced. May 24+25: 4:30-6pm Session II: Backstroke We will continue freestyle and also begin backstroke for those who are ready, as well as introduce backstroke components to some beginning levels. May 26+30: 4:30-6pm Session III: Breaststroke 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. May 31+June 1: 4:30-6pm Session IV: Butterfly 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. June 2: 4:30-6pm Session V: Starts & Turns Starts and turns may also be covered by the coaches at their discretion during each stroke session. PROGRAM #
