Meet the Mid County Director

The Director of the Mid County Community Center is Ingrid St. Villier. Ingrid has been a part of the Montgomery County Recreation for as long as she can remember. She attended Rec Department summer programs as a child, then later worked as a camps staff member.

After graduation from American University and a stint working in the criminal justice field, she returned to Montgomery County Recreation, working with our programs for teens. In 2005, she was appointed the Director of the Lawton Community Center in Chevy Chase. Last year, she was named to be the Director of the Mid County Community Center and worked behind the scenes as the Center was getting ready to open. Now that the Center is open, she continues to bring that same dynamic spirit to the Mid County Community. Stop by Mid County and say hi to Ingrid!

COACH RICH BASKETBALL FOR AGES 6-8

This program for boys and girls is appropriate for all experience and skill levels. Many young players are overwhelmed by the speed and complexity of basketball.

This program will teach basketball as a game of specific fundamentals, each with its own name, technique and purpose. Each one-hour class is divided into two, 30-minute halves. The first half of each class will be a specific fundamental skill-building component, with drills and activities designed to teach and develop these primary building blocks. The second half of each class will be live play, allowing players to apply these fundamentals within real game scenarios. This program equally combines fundamental instruction with live game action!

It is an important component of home and community-based services for older people. This US Administration on Aging funded program improves the dietary intakes of participants and offers participants opportunities to form new friendships and create support networks. The legislative intent is to make community-based services available to aging in place adults who may be at risk of losing their independence. Meals served under the program provide at least one-third of the recommended dietary allowances established by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences, as well as the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, issued by the Secretaries of Departments of Health and Human Services. Menus are available at each Nutrition Program site. Lunch reservations must be made two working days in advance. Cancellations should be made directly to the site manager. A volunteer contribution is requested from persons age 60 and over. The cost of the meal is $5.92. Contributions are used to purchase more meals. Participants are asked to contribute what they can.

The Miracle League gives hundreds of disabled children something few dreamed possible ... the chance to play baseball.

A level-playing field where physically and mentally challenged children can hit, run, & catch - just like the best of them.

The custom-designed ballfield, located in South Germantown Park, incorporates a cushioned synthetic turf that accommodates wheelchairs and other walking assistance devices, while helping prevent injuries.

During each Miracle League game, every child is given an opportunity to hit the ball and score a run. Miracle League team members are assigned “buddies” who assist them in hitting the ball and “running” the bases. Buddies can be fellow schoolmates, parents, college students, business leaders or anyone who wishes to volunteer their time to give a child the gift of baseball.

For more information on The Miracle League visit montgomerycountymd.gov/rec.

Parent & Tot Ice Skating Skating is fun, and great exercise for you and your child! This class teaches toddlers (ages 3-5) beginning skating skills, with Mom or Dad right there to help them feel safe. We’ll teach your child how to fall down and get up, march, and march while moving on the ice.

You’ll need basic skating skills to participate with your child on ice. Bicycle helmets recommended. Fee covers one child and one parent; register child only.

Beginner, USTA

We’ve taken the exciting new “10 and Under Tennis” program and adapted it for kids 11-13 who want to learn tennis. The difference between this and other beginning tennis programs? Everything is right-sized for these ages: racquets are lighter and smaller, balls are less bouncy and easier to hit, and courts are smaller (but proportionate) than adult courts. The benefits are immediate. Within an hour kids are rallying, having fun and psyched for more. They’re playing reall tennis and having real fun. See p.151 for more details on “10 and Under Tennis,” and sign up your 11-13 year-old today!

Beginner, Senior

Designed for adults 55 and older who have never played tennis, or have had minimal instruction. Your instructor will go over basic stance, grip, strokes (hitting technique), and court etiquette. We’ll use lowcompression balls that don’t bounce as high or travel as far as standard tennis balls, making the learning experience even more enjoyable and rewarding.

USTA 10 and Under Tennis (Outdoor) This wonderful new tennis program will change the way kids 10 and under learn and play tennis from here on out. Basketball, soccer and baseball all modify their fields and equipment to fit younger players. But when it comes to tennis, we ask children to play on adult-sized courts with hard, high-flying balls and adultsized racquets. 10 and Under Tennis uses the QuickStart play format and scales everything to kid-size, making tennis more fun right from the beginning. Visit www.10andUnderTennis.com for more information, and sign up today!

How to register for a Montgomery

Parks Course or Program

BEFORE YOU REGISTER • Visit www.ParkPASS.org to set up a ParkPASS account if you don’t already have one. The ParkPASS online system is the easiest, quickest, most secure way to register for Montgomery Parks classes and program.

• Please allow up to two (2) business days for your new account to activate and receive the ParkPASS email with your new Login ID/Customer Number and Account PIN. • With a ParkPASS account, you can view and sign up for courses and special programs, make payments, and view your course registration/s.

• Registration for Montgomery Parks classes is open to Montgomery County residents on the first day of any given registration period, then open to all the following day.

READY TO REGISTER? • Online: Register 24 hours a day, seven days a week at

www.ParkPASS.org, beginning at 12:01 a.m. the first day of registration. Have your Login ID/Customer Number and Account PIN on hand.

• In

person: Complete the “PARKS” section of the registration form in this Guide, take it to any ParkPASS facility, and we’ll help you get registered. See the “Montgomery Parks Directory” in this Guide for ParkPASS locations.

• By

phone: Call the ParkPASS automated phone registration system at 301-670-6858, and follow the prompts. Phone registration is available 24 hours a day, beginning at 12:01 a.m. the first day of registration.

• By

mail: Complete the green “PARKS” section of the registration form in this Guide, and mail it with payment to the facility hosting the course you’d like to take.

please call the facility offering the course. See the “Montgomery Parks Directory” in this Guide for ParkPASS locations. If you have a question about the ParkPASS system or your account, call the Help Desk at 301-495-2580 (M-F, 10am-2pm), or email MCP-ParkPASSHelp@MontgomeryParks.org.

REGISTRATION CONFIRMATION • If you register online, it’s a good idea to print out your

ParkPASS registration confirmation. It often contains important details about your course not found elsewhere (e.g. directions to off-site programs, equipment lists, etc.).

No confirmation letters are mailed. You may also call the facility hosting your course to confirm your registration. See the “Montgomery Parks Directory” in this Guide for facility info.

ParkPASS facility to register and pay for courses in person.

Any funds paid to your ParkPASS account will be available to use the next time you call or log on to ParkPASS to register.

Montgomery Parks uses the latest payment security methods. Collection and retention of customer information is confidential. We do not sell, share, give, transfer or rent personal information to third parties.

MONTGOMERY PARKS REFUND POLICY • If Montgomery Parks cancels a course, you will be notified

and receive a full credit on your ParkPASS account; or, at your request, a full refund.

• In order to withdraw from a Montgomery Parks course,

submit a written (letter or email) request to the facility hosting the course. If your written request is received at least five business days before the course begins, you may choose to receive a full credit for the course on your ParkPASS account, or a refund less a 20% administrative fee. For courses with fees of less than $10, you will receive a credit on your ParkPASS account; no refunds will be given.

• If your written withdrawal request is received less than five days before the start of a course, no refund will be given for that course. No credit or refund is issued after the second class in a series has met.

• No refunds or credits will be issued for classes missed by the

participant. No refund requests will be considered after the last scheduled date of a course.

• Some activities have different refund/withdrawal policies

which may supercede this standard policy.
