President’s Message

by Mike Daniels, President, Schaumburg Board of Park Commissioners Autumn’s arrival brings an abundance of family fun and memories to be made at Schaumburg Park District. From Halloween magic and fall festivals to pumpkins and horse-drawn wagons, we have a bountiful harvest of programs and activities to enjoy this season.

Fall is the perfect time of year to explore gorgeous scenery at Spring Valley Nature Center and Volkening Heritage Farm (pg. 68).

Say goodbye to summer Aug. 17 at the Back to School Campfire (pg. 71). Then welcome fall Sept. 15 at Harvest Bonfire (pg. 71). Finally, celebrate the season of pumpkin spice and everything nice Oct. 7 at Autumn Harvest Festival (pg. 13). Now in its 35th year, the fest features live music, roasted corn and other fall favorites, along with demonstrations of cider pressing, blacksmithing, beer-making, leather harness making and working draft horses. Other activities include children’s crafts, tales of frontier life and pumpkin decorating.

Before summer officially ends, head to Schaumburg Golf Club for the 11th Annual Links Technology Cup, set for Aug. 8 at Schaumburg Golf Club (pg. 2).

Golfers will enjoy a day of competition, lunch on the course with “Taste on the Tee,” prizes and dinner from Chandler’s Chophouse. Register early as this event always sells out. Funds raised benefit the Schaumburg Park Foundation, which raises money for recreation scholarships and other special projects that serve the community.

Enjoy spectacular autumn views from the courses at Schaumburg Golf Club (pg. 59) and Walnut Greens (pg. 63). Remember you also can play year-round, rain or shine, at Schaumburg Golf Club’s state-of-the-art aboutGolf simulator bays (pg. 60). Located in the Club’s lower level, simulators are available for rounds of golf, practice, lessons and club fittings. Food and beverage service is available from Chandler’s Chophouse.

Another excellent way to wrap up summer is spending time with family. Try our new Family Triathlon Aug. 25 at Volkening Lake (pg. 12). Families will compete in a unique triathlon that includes walking or running, an obstacle course and paddle boating!

Family festivities continue Sept. 7 at The Sport Center Family Fun Night (pg. 12).

The event features a variety of sports, games and activities in Schaumburg Park

District’s magnificent 110,000 sq. foot sports complex. On Nov. 9, get ready to yell ‘BINGO!’ during Family Bingo & Pizza Night at the CRC, presented by Schaumburg Bank & Trust, a Wintrust Community Bank (pg. 15).

Scare up some great times at our lineup of Halloween-themed special events!

Swim with pumpkins Oct. 12 during Pumpkin Splash at The Water Works (pg. 13) and take a mysterious walk through Spring Valley Oct. 26 and 27 during A Haunting in the Valley (pg. 14). Discover spooktacular surprises Oct. 26 when the CRC and Safety Park are transformed into a Halloween carnival for Boonanza (pg. 14) and top off your Halloween celebrations Oct. 31 during Trick or Treating at Spring Valley and Heritage Farm (pg. 15).

Don’t forget your four-legged family members! Dress up your pup for the HowlO-Ween Pooch Parade Sept. 29 at K-9 Dog Park (pg. 12). Dogs and their owners will enjoy a costume contest, agility course, trick competition and more!

Although outdoor pools are closing, The Water Works—our splashtastic indoor water park—is open year-round (pg. 21 )! Get your guppies registered for swim lessons and learn valuable safety skills that always are useful no matter what the season (pg. 22)!

Looking to revamp your workout routine? Our latest membership—Fitness Unlimited PLUS—allows access to as many classes as you’d like, including popular picks like Cycle and TRX (pg. 55). Launched in the spring, Fitness Unlimited PLUS has been a phenomenal success and we look forward to adding even more members and exciting classes in the future.

As the days become shorter, you and your family might be looking for new hobbies or activities to stay busy indoors. Be inspired this fall in our art classes, including Ceramic Design, Draw Kids and Let’s Paint! (pg. 45). If you’ve ever wanted to be in the spotlight—now’s your chance, with Putting On Productions holding auditions for Cameron Mackintosh’s Mary Poppins Jr. Sept. 13 and 16 at the CRC (pg. 41). Or treat yourself to an evening or afternoon out watching the show Nov. 16-18 at the CRC. While returning to back-to-school routines, the hunt for the perfect Halloween costume and all things pumpkin-flavored, we’re here to help you Take Time for Fun. Keep up with the latest District news by visiting parkfun.com.

Here’s to an autumn filled with enchantment and wonder!

Each fall, hundreds of millions of monarch butterflies migrate from the United States and Canada to Mexico. The monarch migration is truly one of the world's greatest natural wonders, yet it is threatened by habitat loss in Mexico and throughout the spring and summer breeding range in North America.

Hapkido is unique with its focus on the psychology of the street fighter and countering the techniques of other martial styles. Referred to as ‘the complete art of self-defense’, Hapkido incorporates all combat skills (joint-locks, pressure points, throws, escapes, strikes, ground survival and weapon disarming) for practical personal protection. Proper technique and leverage is emphasized over strength and power, making it ideal for anyone.

Release tension, develop total body fitness and build stamina and overall productivity!

In addition to self-defense skills, karate increases flexibility, cardiovascular endurance and muscle tone, all while improving core strength.

FOOTGOLF

FootGolf is an exciting sport available at Walnut Greens Golf Course. It combines traditional golf with the sport of soccer. The goal of FootGolf is the same as traditional golf. Players try to kick a soccer ball into a 21” hole with the least amount of kicks. The player with the lowest combined score at the end of the round wins. 9 holes of FootGolf will be played following a similar layout to golf. Unlike many sports, FootGolf is played, for the most part, without the supervision of a referee or umpire. The game relies on the integrity of the individual to show consideration for other players and to abide by the rules. All players should conduct themselves in a disciplined manner, demonstrating courtesy and sportsmanship at all times, irrespective of their competitiveness.

FootGolf Rates and Schedule: • 9 Holes:........................... $11 • 9 Hole Cart:.................... $8 per rider • Soccer Ball Rental:........... $5 *Bring your own soccer balls. Rentals are limited.

Open play is available Monday through Friday and after 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Please contact the Golf Shop 847/490-7878 to schedule a start time and mention that you’re playing FootGolf.
