ABOUTUS

Our Vision

The Streamwood Park District enriches life with memorable moments through excellence in recreation.

When asked to write the letter for our next program guide, I recall looking forward to the many new offerings and programs for this coming year. Staff had many new ideas and events that we felt the Streamwood community would love. Instead, we learned new terms, such as “Coronavirus,” “social distancing,” and “flattening the curve.” We saw our country and our lives come screeching to a halt because of COVID-19. It is difficult to write an enthusiastic note for our fall program guide as we try to move forward in yet another “new normal.” With that being said, the staff is working hard within the guidelines as provided by the Governor’s office in trying to reopen our facilities and parks. We are hopefully now in Phase 4, meaning we can resume classes, allow people to use Park Place to work out, have parks, playgrounds, and sporting events, as well as our preschool. We will be following guidelines in accordance with state and federal regulations in order to maintain safety for everyone. We ask for your patience as we move forward because guidelines from the state and federal agencies are ever-evolving. We have good news though, as we are moving forward with redoing Commissioners’ Park with money partially funded from an OSLAD (Open Space Land Acquisition Development) Grant. The new improvements should be finished later this fall, so we are excited about that and we feel our residents will love the changes as well. Executive Director, Jeff Janda has also been working hard on several other grant opportunities that can be used in making significant upgrades to several of our properties. We are keeping our fingers crossed. The staff has also used the downtime to clean and improve facilities, including the gym floor, dance floor, aerobics floor, and elevator in Park Place. The pool was drained, patched, and cleaned over the summer. New cleaning guidelines have been put into place to help keep our patrons safe. It has been a difficult time for all of us, but I know we have better days ahead. We will keep you all posted through e-mails, our website, and social media as we prepare to offer more programming as we continue to move forward. Regards,
