As one of the visitors, Tommy, finds himself drawn to the warm-hearted Fiona and the charm of this extraordinary community, he must decide where he truly belongs. With lush melodies, spirited dancing, and unforgettable songs, “Brigadoon” tells a timeless story about love, sacrifice, and the pull of a place where life is lived simply and sincerely.

Preschool offers activities and experiences that help children socialize and get ready for kindergarten. Hands on and developmentally appropriate activities in the areas of math, pre-reading, pre-writing, science, art, and large and small motor skills are offered throughout the preschool day. Children will also learn how to make friends and be a part of a group. Some of the classes are mixed age, meaning 3 and 4 years olds are together in the same classroom. There are many great benefits to this kind of class. The older children learn to help their younger friends, and the younger children learn from the older ones. Lunch enrichment offers time to further improve pre-kindergarten skills. Children should bring a peanut-free lunch and a drink. The cost of lunch enrichment will be paid monthly. Days and times listed by location. Note that lunch enrichment may begin a few weeks later than preschool and end a week before preschool does.

HISTORY
The Clayson House Museum, was originally constructed in 1873 as a residence for George Clayson, a nurseryman who served on the Palatine Village Board. The restoration of the Clayson House was a bicentennial project undertaken by the citizens of Palatine Township and the Palatine Historical Society. The museum was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 21, 1979 and open to the public on October 7, 1979. The Palatine Historical Society continues to maintain the collection, offer programs, and welcomes visitors and groups who tour the Museum.

Participation Waiver
All participants must sign a waiver prior to engaging in any program or activity. Adults aged 18 and older must sign their own waivers. Parent or legal guardian must sign waiver for minors. Without a signed waiver, participation in Park District programs will not be permitted.
Waitlist
When a class is full, participants will be placed on a waitlist. If a spot becomes available, park district staff will contact waitlisted individuals to inform them they are being removed from the waitlisted and added to the class. Participants have 24 hours from this notification to make payment. Payments can be completed online or in person. If no payment is made within 24-hours the spot will be given to the next person on the waitlist.
Cancellation
The district reserves the right to adjust programs as necessary, including canceling, postponing, or combining classes, as well as changing instructors. If a class is canceled due to insufficient enrollment, participants will be notified and issued a full refund. If the class is already underway at the time of cancellation, a prorated refund will be calculated based on the date of cancellation.
Transfers
Requests to transfer to another program must be submitted at least seven days prior to both programs’ start dates. Requests made less than seven days prior to either starting date will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. No fee will be assessed to transfer to a program in the same session. A $5 fee applies for transfers to a later session unless the original program was canceled by the district. Additional transfer rules apply to camps.
Note: Dates, times, fees, maximums, and other details pertaining to programs and services may change. Call 847-991-0333 with any questions regarding registration.
Withdrawals & Refunds
Requests for withdrawals and refunds can be made by submitting an Application for Transfer/Withdrawal Form. The application can be found online at palatineparks.org or obtained at Community Center, Birchwood Recreation Center, or Falcon Park Recreation Center. Requests for withdrawals or refunds will not be accepted by phone or fax. Refund requests must be submitted at least seven days prior to a program's start date to qualify for a full refund. Requests made less than seven days prior to the start of a program will be evaluated individually, and the cost of any non-refundable materials may be deducted from the refund amount. Medical refunds require a physician's note and will be prorated from the date the request is submitted. Medical refund requests may be requested until the final class date of the session, but cannot be processed after the program concludes. Refunds for trips, minus a service charge will only be issued if another participant is found to take the place of the individual requesting the refund. Due to the high demand for Park District programs and limited class sizes, refunds will not be issued for classes that participants are unable to attend. Refunds will not be processed for special events, trips, one-day programs, passes, or memberships, except in cases where the event is canceled by the Palatine Park District. Programs with specific refund policies will have additional details noted in the program descriptions. Refunds are issued as household credit unless specifically requested. All other refunds will be assessed a $5 processing fee. Cash and check payments will be issued refunds via check within 10-21 days of request. Credit card payments will be refunded to the original card. Refunds under $10 will only be issued as household credit. Credit and debit card fees will not be refunded.
GENERAL INFORMATION Conduct Ordinance
In 2004, the Board of Park Commissioners adopted a comprehensive Conduct Ordinance that relates to the use of the parks and property owned, operated, maintained, or controlled by Palatine Park District. A copy of this ordinance can be viewed at palatineparks.org under the About Us tab.
PaRticipant Code of Conduct
In addition to the Conduct Ordinance of 2004, the Board of Park Commissioners has also approved Administrative Policy 2.13.1, Code of Conduct. This code of conduct is the minimum expected behavior of every participant to ensure the safety and positive experience of all involved. The District uses a three pillar positive behavior program as the platform to define the expected behavior of all participants. This platform is aligned and consistent with the program used within the local elementary schools to create consistency among children and parents whether at school or play at the park district. This Code of Conduct is also aligned and tied to the District’s Anti-bullying policy and the District’s Participant Disciplinary Policy when rules and expectations of the positive behavior program are violated. A copy of this policy can be viewed online at palatineparks.org under the About Us tab.
CLASS DISMISSAL GUIDELINES
All children 11 and under are to remain in the classroom until a parent or authorized person comes into the classroom to pick them up. Parents are required to sign their child in and out of each class. Parents of children ages 7-11 may opt to complete a Class Dismissal Permission Slip. This will allow the child to be released at the end of the scheduled class without a parent present. These forms are available from your child’s instructor. A separate form will be required for each class attended and every new session.
