President’s Message

by Robert Schmidt, President, Schaumburg Board of Park Commissioners Sunny play dates at Bison’s Bluff, bunnies hopping around the CRC and pastel eggs floating around The Water Works can only mean one thing—spring has arrived at Schaumburg Park District!

Spring forward to a season of familyfriendly special events, including the Earth Day Party April 22 at Spring Valley Nature Center (pg. 14). Celebrate your connection to the planet with games, birdhouse building and free wildflower seedlings to take home.

While you’re enjoying Earth Day, visit Bison’s Bluff Nature Playground for a unique playtime featuring climbing structures, sand, music, streams and hidden nooks. One year after opening Bison’s Bluff, we couldn’t be prouder of the positive feedback from the community and the joy that comes from watching our children and grandchildren explore, discover and create in this transcendent play environment.

Remember to save the date for the Schaumburg Park Foundation’s annual Solstice Hop & Vine Fest June 23 in Meineke Park (pg. 2). Enjoy a lovely evening of wine, beer, entertainment and phenomenal food—all for a great cause! Tickets are on sale now at Schaumburgparkfoundation.org. Proceeds benefit the recreation scholarships and other Park Foundation projects.

With spring’s arrival also comes our popular “Bunny” events, including Bunny Bash March 24 (pg. 13) and Underwater EGGstravaganza March 29 (pg. 13).

And don’t miss the chance for Bunny to hop to your home March 27 during Bunny Visits (pg. 13).

Bring your crew and creativity March 28 to the Family Egg Decorating Night at the Pat Shephard Center (pg. 12). Families also are invited to enjoy a variety of athletic activities at the Family Fun Night at The Sport Center (pg. 13).

As the weather warms up, play a round of golf at the 27-hole Schaumburg Golf Club (pg. 59) and the nine-hole Walnut Greens Golf Course (pg. 63). Since spring can be unpredictable when it comes to weather, we’ve got you covered

with Schaumburg Golf Club’s indoor simulators, where you can play more than 40 world-class courses rain or shine (pg. 61).

Join School District 54 in celebrating the community April 14 during Multicultural Fest (pg. 14) and ride Schaumburg’s bike trails May 20 with the Fahrrad Tour Von Schaumburg Bike Ride & Picnic (pg.15), organized with the Village of Schaumburg. Enjoy a favorite springtime activity May 12 during the Flying 4 Kids Kite Fly and Family Picnic (pg. 14) and encourage wellness in your workplace May 16 with the 29th Annual Employee Fitness Walk at Olympic Park (pg. 16).

Warmer weather offers the perfect chance to explore Spring Valley (pg. 69).

More than 135 acres of prairies, woodlands and wetlands await you, with a historic German farm experience available at Volkening Heritage Farm.

Spring Valley and Heritage Farm are hosting a variety of exciting events this spring, including the highly anticipated Sugar Bush Fair March 17 and 18 (pg. 12), Springtime on the Farm April 15 (pg. 14) and Walpurgis Night Bonfire and Wagon Ride April 27 (pg. 14). And prost! It’s time for Spring Beer Garden May 18 at Heritage Farm (pg. 15).

Spring also is a great time to start preparing children for summer with swim lessons at The Water Works (pg. 22-23). Swim lessons are not just a fun outlet, but a safety tool. SPD Swim School offers lessons for all ages, with both group and individual sessions available.

Stay active and healthy this spring with the latest fitness classes to keep you motivated (pg. 54)! Take your workout to the next level with TRX, breathe out in Gentle Yoga and move to the beat in our newest offering—BANG. Schaumburg Idol is still going strong! This year marks the 10th anniversary of the local singing competition (pg. 39). Auditions are April 26, with competitions filming June through August.

Visit us at Parkfun.com for the latest District news and information. We can’t wait for the community to Take Time for Fun at our events and programs this spring!

Northwest Special Recreation Association Providing Recreation Services to Individuals with Special Needs Schaumburg Park District is proud to be a member of the Northwest Special Recreation Association (NWSRA). Throughout the northwest suburbs, NWSRA is the leader in providing outstanding recreational opportunities for children and adults with disabilities. NWSRA’s team of full-time therapeutic recreation professionals and trained part-time staff offer a multitude of yearround program offerings including sports, camping, social programs and more.

Inclusion assistance is provided by NWSRA to those individuals who wish to participate in their home park district program. When registering, the parent of an individual with a disability should inform the Park District (and NWSRA, if desired) of any accommodation needed in order for the individual to successfully participate in the program. Park District staff will contact NWSRA for assistance with the accommodation.

Schaumburg Park Foundation supports the mission of the Schaumburg Park District by raising funds at events and through direct donations. Funds are used primarily to support Schaumburg Park District’s recreation scholarship program which provides funds for family memberships, programs and events to those who might not otherwise have the financial ability to participate in District activities. The Foundation also supports community-based projects such as the renovation of the museum at Spring Valley Nature Center. For additional information on the Foundation or scholarships, visit SchaumburgParkFoundation.org, or call 847/985-2115.

Kendrigan Memorial Scholarship program and NWSRA Lightning Athletes.

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.

The Schaumburg Park District invites residents and civic groups to take part in its Adopt-APark program. Show community pride and civic responsibility by acting as the eyes and ears of the Park District. A sign with the adopting resident’s or civic group’s name will be displayed at the park.

In return, your group will keep the Park District informed of any problems at the park and initiate beautification efforts, including planting flowers and picking up litter. There is no adoption fee. A number of parks are available for adoption. For information, call the superintendent of parks at 847/985-2115.

Schaumburg Park District is committed to conservation of habitats for native plants and wildlife.

PRIVATE MUSIC CLASSES April 9 – July 2

Concepts can be introduced and worked on until they are mastered and the pace is set by the student’s attention span and desire. The goal is to make music study fun, attainable and low pressure while giving students skills for a lifetime. Private lessons are 30 minutes each week. On occasion, a qualified substitute instructor may teach a private lesson. Private lessons will be canceled only if no substitute is available.

FootGolf Hole at Walnut Greens

FOOTGOLF AT WALNUT GREENS

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 in 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.

The Schaumburg Park District reserves the right to cancel, postpone or combine classes or change instructors. If insufficient enrollment causes a class to be cancelled, notification will be given and full tuition refunded.

A $3 service charge will be deducted from all refunds.

For full refund, less $3 service charge, withdrawal forms must be received 24 hours prior to first day of class.

If the class has begun, a prorated amount will be determined based on the date of refund application. Requests will be honored until the last class date of the session.

Trip refunds, less the service charge, are furnished only when someone is found to take your place.

Refunds will remain on account unless requested otherwise.

Due to the demand for participation in Park District programs and the limited number of spaces available, refunds will not be issued for classes that participants are unable to attend.

Class Cancellation Date

After a predetermined date it will be decided which classes have met the minimum registration requirements for this session. Those classes which have insufficient registration will either have a limited enrollment or will be cancelled and the registrants will be notified.
