JOIN OUR TEAM

As an Employee

MOTIVATED, ENTHUSIASTIC AND PEOPLE-ORIENTED INDIVIDUALS are encouraged to apply for employment. We’re an Equal Opportunity Employer committed to a diverse workforce. All potential employees must successfully complete the online application as well as the required background checks as a condition of employment.

As a Sponsor WHERE DO YOU WANT YOUR BUSINESS TO BE SEEN? A sponsorship package with the Warrenville Park District is an affordable and effective way to bring exposure of your products and services to the community in a cooperative way. A sponsorship offers your business the opportunity to give back to the community and at the same time highlights your business with a select market. We are happy to work with you to create a package that promotes your business and shows your support in the community.

For more information, contact Sheri Potter, Marketing & Community Engagement Manager, at sherip@warrenvilleparks.org.

As a Volunteer JOIN THE TEAM OF VIPS – VOLUNTEERS IN PARKS, who contribute their time, energy and enthusiasm to the Warrenville Park District. We offer an assortment of volunteer opportunities that can get you involved in the community while giving you a rewarding experience. See the inside back cover for upcoming volunteer opportunities.

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT - RYAN MCINTYRE: For the past six years, Ryan McIntyre has been dedicated to volunteering at the Warrenville Park District. His journey into volunteering was inspired by his passion for soccer and the enthusiasm of his two daughters, who both showed an interest in participating in the sport. The most rewarding aspect of Ryan’s volunteer work has been witnessing the growth and development of the young players from 2nd grade to 5th grade. There is a point for each player where a lightbulb goes on and they start to understand the game a little better - where they need to be on the field and how to work as a team. That is the fun part.

DiVERSiTY The Warrenville Park District is looking to offer more diverse opportunities for programs and special events. Help us to develop a greater appreciation of diversity as we plan our recreation programming.

If you or someone you know has an idea you would like us to consider, please let us know.

Your suggestions and comments will be a valuable resource for evaluating future programming.

Please submit programs ideas to Matt Odom, Superintendent of Recreation, at matto@warrenvilleparks.org.

Hey Teens! Let’s create a space where teens can thrive together.

Chair Yoga Ages 14+ Yoga is a mind-body practice that combines physical poses, controlled breathing, and meditation or relaxation. Gentle yoga classes use basic yoga poses in a slow, low-impact way, flowing from pose to pose or staying with one pose for a longer amount of time for a slower paced and gentle practice.

Gentle yoga does not necessarily mean that it is an easy class. The intensity may be lower, but the focus and commitment are high. This gentle yoga class moves at a steady pace, slowly cycling though a series of floor based or seated asanas and standing poses to balance strength and steadiness in body and mind. It is appropriate for all levels and ages of practitioners. A gentle yoga practice is a great choice for anyone who is afraid they are not flexible or fit enough to do the yoga poses.

4. Check refunds are approved at the Warrenville Park District board meetings held on the third Thursday of each month, unless otherwise designated.

Deadline for submission is the 30th of each month.

Trip Refund Policy

Behavior Management/Code of Conduct All participants, parents, siblings, volunteers, and affiliate groups are expected to exhibit appropriate behavior at all times. The following guidelines have been developed to help make all of our programs, events, and affiliate programs safe and enjoyable for all participants. Additional rules may be developed for specific programs as deemed necessary by staff.

Warrenville Park District insists that all participants, parents, siblings, volunteers, and affiliate groups comply with a basic behavior code. All participants, parents, siblings, volunteers, and affiliate groups shall: 1. Show respect to all participants, staff, and volunteers.

2. Follow all program/event rules and take direction from staff.

3. Refrain from using abusive or foul language.

4. Refrain from threatening or causing bodily harm to self, other participants, or staff.

Applicants need to complete a Trip Refund Form at least two business days prior to the trip. Applicants may only receive a refund if they find a replacement person to occupy their place on a trip or if the Warrenville Park District has not paid trip expenses. Service charges will apply. In cases of sickness or emergency, participants will need to leave a message at 630.393.7279 x307, prior to trip departure with their name, telephone number, trip name, and reason for canceling.

5. Refrain from harassment of any kind to other participants or staff.

Our Commitment to Quality and Service

9. Not possess any weapons.

Total quality management is one of our goals. We strive to provide you with high quality recreation programming, and we take pride in making your experience with the Warrenville Park District an enjoyable one. If you are not completely satisfied with your recreation experience or any service that the park district provides, please contact us to share your concerns and suggestions for improvement. We would also like to hear what you especially like about our programs and services. Please call 630.393.7279 to receive our Customer Feedback Form.

Errors and Adjustments While we at the Warrenville Park District try to be accurate in the information presented in our brochure, some unavoidable errors or changes to the programs, fees, schedules, and other information may occur. The Park District apologizes for any inconvenience resulting from these necessary adjustments.

Park District Risk Management Association In 1993, the Warrenville Park District became a member of the Park District Risk Management Agency (PDRMA). As a loss prevention measure, that group has asked its members to require program participants to execute a release form.

The Waiver, Release and Hold Harmless Agreement is part of the registration form. Please read the form carefully, sign it and submit it when you register for any particular program. At the time of registration or at the first program session, you may be presented with a sheet describing some of the particular risk involved in that particular activity for which you have registered. If so, that additional material will become a part of the Waiver. Release and Hold Harmless Agreement. We want the registrants in our programs to be aware in advance that, when they participate in certain activities, there is a natural element of risk of injury which each participant must assume. We do not carry medical or accident insurance for program participants. The costs of that type of personal health insurance would make program fees prohibitive. Please review your own personal health insurance plan to be certain that you and your family have the proper coverage. The use of this form is one of our answers to the national liability insurance crisis, allowing us to continue to offer quality programs to the public at a reasonable cost. If you have any questions, please call 630.393.7279.

58

6. Refrain from any type of bullying.

7. Refrain from any type of aggressive and violent behavior during park district or affiliate sponsored programs.

8. Show respect for equipment, supplies, and facilities.

The Warrenville Park District expects all individuals to conduct themselves in a manner in keeping with their levels of development, maturity, and demonstrated capabilities with a proper regard for rights and welfare of other individuals, staff, volunteers, and district officials.

Discipline A positive approach will be used regarding discipline. Staff will periodically review rules with participants during the program session. If inappropriate behavior occurs, a prompt resolutions will be sought specific to each individual’s situation. Warrenville Park District reserves the right to dismiss a participant, parent or sibling, or affiliate whose behavior endangers his or her own safety or the safety of others.

Stay up-to-date when adverse weather affects the events & programs that are important to you through Rainout Line.

Is there a particular class you have been looking for?

Is there something new your kids or you would like to participate in? The staff will consider all submission, however, pitching an idea does not guarantee the program will be created.

Youth Baseball League WARRENVILLE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION P O Box 501 Warrenville, IL 60555 WWW.WAASPORTS.COM Baseball Season Is All Year!

The WAA is a not-for-profit organization comprised of up to a 12-member all-volunteer board and is an affiliate of the Warrenville Park District. The WAA’s mission is to provide high quality youth baseball programs to Warrenville and surrounding communities. Emphasis at all levels is placed on sportsmanship, team spirit, and baseball fundamentals. It is the belief of the WAA that baseball programs serve our community by creating a place for our children to have fun, become more physically fit, learn good sportsmanship, and learn basic concepts of teamwork -- including tolerance of others -- and recognition of different skill levels.

Some of our major activities throughout the year include the season opener and league banquet, All-Star games and the annual 4th of July Cerny Series. We also fund travel team tournaments, capital improvements, and general field maintenance via our procurement and management of Hotel Funds from the City of Warrenville.

The league is open to boys and girls between the ages of 5-14. Practices usually begin around April 1 with games starting April 30. Games are played throughout the week and continue until June.

Playoffs for Pinto, Mustang, Bronco, and Pony leagues end the first week of July. In addition to the spring season, we also offer a "Fall Ball" season. We will be sending out more information on registration for fall ball in the near future.
