What’s Happening at Recreation?

Summer 2013

Summer is right around the corner and we’re so excited to offer you an array of exciting programs and events for you to enjoy! However, first I’d like to thank the many volunteers and staff that put on some fantastic events this past winter and spring season. We couldn’t have done it without you!

We started off the year by providing you with our 35th Annual Open House. This event allowed us an opportunity to provide you with demonstrations of the many wonderful programs available to you and your family. February brought the acclaimed “Daddy-Daughter Ball”. The 200+ attendees were able to get all gussied up, dance, have dinner, make crafts, take pictures in the photo-booth, and so much more! The Rec Center was full of cheering fans as we concluded our famous basketball leagues for Kindergarten through 12th graders in March. We also vamped up the spring event with Peter Rabbit by having an egg hunt with glow-in-the-dark eggs filled to the brim with treats for your little ones. Puppet shows, moon jumps, crafts and a jelly bean contest were onsite to keep everyone entertained. As many of you know, our craft fair is such a success that we have two per year! On April 20th, we had 100 crafters and artisans selling their wares - everything from candles, jewelry, crochet, floral arrangements, stamping items, pet accessories, household goods and more were available.

No summer is a success without finding treasures through the Community Garage Sale held on Saturday, May 11th. Every year we prepare a list of participating residents with their addresses, so you know where to find the best deal. The annual 5K race has a new name this year – “Truckin’ 5K”. The 5K race is followed by the Fun Fair and Business Expo on Saturday, May 18th. There will be so many activities for your children to enjoy – crafts, face painting, inflatables, entertainers, Touch-aTruck, music and more! We’ll be hosting several summertime Park Parties, Movies Under the Stars, and Rockin’ the Ville concert events for you and your family to enjoy.

We also have a great summer camp program that will keep your children safe and entertained while you work. More importantly, don’t forget that Thursday, August 1st, through Sunday, August 4th, brings the long awaited RomeoFest to town - music, carnival rides, entertainment, food, and lots of fun is sure to be had by everyone!

Page through this brochure and make sure to mark your calendars for all of these events – many at no cost!

Some new things we have on the horizon include improvements to Murphy Park, which is located next to Safety Town. Construction began last fall with work being done on mass grading, layout, and concrete footings being installed. Some of the amenities will include a new picnic shelter, poured in place safety surfacing, several slides and play panels, swing set, and a climbing rock with a net component.

This playground will allow access to people of varying abilities. Construction is anticipated to be completed by late summer.

This year we will also see the reconstruction of the Village Park playground located at the Recreation Center. Construction commenced this spring and is expected to be completed in the fall of 2013. New amenities will include poured in place safety surfacing, a two-tiered play area, new playground equipment, and a net climber.

While we are excited to put together a list of fun events for you and your family and make improvements to our parks, we also offer a variety of recreational programs for adults as well. Check out our fitness center and group fitness classes and make it a goal to get in shape. We also offer karate, taekwondo, tennis and more. A variety of trips for senior citizens is also offered and provides an opportunity for you to explore and meet new friends. Come on out and join us!

ROMEOVILLE RECREATION DEPARTMENT --PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT NOTE: this agreement must be signed by all adult participants and must also be signed by a parent or guardian of any minor seeking to participate in any recreation department programs or activities.

WARNING OF RISK Despite the implementation of all reasonable precautions by the Department, an unavoidable risk of serious injury will always exist when participating in any recreational activity. Not all hazards and dangers can be foreseen. Participants and parents/guardians of minor participants must understand that certain risks and hazards will be inherent to participation in that activity, including but not limited to risks and hazards associated with inclement weather, slip and falls, overexertion and fatigue, disregarding safety rules and instructions, collision with stationary objects or other participants, poor skill level or conditioning, carelessness, horseplay, unsportsmanlike conduct, premises defects, inadequate or defective equipment, inadequate supervision, instruction or officiating. Accordingly, the Department hereby informs all participants and parents/guardians of minor participants that it is impossible for the Romeoville Recreation Department to guarantee absolute safety for all program and activity participants.

WAIVER AND RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK I acknowledge and assume the risks of property damage, accidents, injuries (including death), loss of bodily functions, disabilities, medical disorders, pain and suffering, lost income and medical expenses that arise from participation in any program or activity offered by the Department, and my use of facilities, transportation services, premises and equipment provided by the Department. I further acknowledge that the foregoing risks may arise from my own action or inaction, the actions or inaction of other program or activity participants, the conditions under which a program or activity is conducted, or from the negligent actions or inaction (including any failure to warn) of Department personnel, contractors or service providers. I also acknowledge that from time to time, the Village of Romeoville and/or the Department may take photographs of me participating in programs or activities offered by the Department for use and publication in various publications or media, including but not limited to the Village’s website, department program brochures or materials, and Village or Department informational, promotional or marketing materials, and I hereby expressly grant to the Village of Romeoville and the Department the right to use and publish such photographs as contemplated herein, all without compensation or payment for such use and publication. In consideration of being allowed to participate in programs or activities offered by the Department, I hereby release, waive and discharge the Village of Romeoville and its officers, officials, employees, agents, volunteers and contractors (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all liability and all claims of any kind whether for personal injury, property damage or death, arising from participation in any activity or program offered by the Department, or arising from the use or publication by Releasees of photographs of me participating in programs or activities offered by the Department, whether or not caused by the negligence of the Releasees or any of them and further covenant that I shall not sue any of the Releasees with respect to any such liability or claims. In the event that I or anyone else nonetheless makes a claim or files suit against Releasees arising out of any of the above-described matters, I will indemnify and hold Releasees harmless of and from any and all damages or judgments and costs of litigation, including attorney fees. The provisions hereof are to be construed as broadly as possible in favor of Releasees, and this Agreement as a whole shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois (without reference to the conflicts of laws rules thereof ). If any part of this Agreement shall be ruled invalid by a court having jurisdiction, the balance shall be enforced to the maximum possible extent. I am signing this Agreement freely and voluntarily, having read and understood it and with a full opportunity to consider its substance and with the intention of fully and unconditionally assuming the risks and releasing the liabilities as described above in this Agreement.

Payment of Fees:

Insurance:

Fees may be paid by cash, check, Visa, Discover, or MasterCard at the time of registration. All monies are immediately deposited.

The Romeoville Recreation Department carries no medical insurance and assumes no liability for personal injuries or loss of personal property while attending Recreation Department activities. A participant’s own policy must cover any medical costs incurred.

Returned Checks: If a check is returned unpaid, there is a $35 insufficient check fee in addition to the original amount of the check payable by cash or money order within 10 days. Failure to do so in the specified time will result in turning the check over to the police department for further action.

Program Cancellation: If the program is canceled due to insufficient registration, a full refund will be made through the Village within seven (7) to fifteen (15) working days.

Class Cancellation: If a class is canceled during the program, participants will be notified of the make up date by phone, in writing through a hand-out at class, or through the mail.

Refund Policy: Refunds are issued as follows - 100% before the start of week one; 75% before the start of week two; 50% before the start of week three; 25% before the start of week four; and NO REFUND after week four. Refunds will be issued in 30 to 60 days.

Age Criteria Policy: Appropriate age levels have been established by our supervisors to ensure a rewarding experience for all children. Children must meet the age requirements of a class within two weeks after the starting date of the class (with the exception of Creative Play). Noncompliance with age requirements can result in removal from the program. The Recreation Department reserves the right to request a birth certificate if the age of the child is in question.

Toilet Training Policy: Children enrolled in a Romeoville Recreation Department program for ages 3 and older must be toilet trained unless it is a parent/toddler class. Recreation Department programs stress the importance of children practicing their independence and we do not aid children in the bathroom. Our instructors are not responsible for diaper changing or toilet training. The Recreation Department reserves the right to deny participation by a child age 3 or older if they are not toilet trained.

We Love Parents But...

With your child’s best interest in mind, parents are invited to their child’s last class meeting only. Our instructors always welcome the opportunity to discuss a participant’s progress with parents at any time. Thank you for your cooperation.

Inclusion Aides: Tri County Special Recreation Association provides qualified staff to help assist the Romeoville Recreation Department’s community recreation leaders in providing recreational programs for children and adults with special needs in a safe environment.

Inclusion aides assist participants with activities provided through the Recreation Department and with any accommodations needed to make sure it is an optimal experience for participants. If your child needs assistance in a program, please mention this on your registration form or upon registration.

Program Enrollment Policy:

Resident Rate Passes:

All programs have minimum and maximum enrollments. If the minimum enrollment has not been reached by the stated deadline, the Recreation Department reserves the right to cancel, postpone, or consolidate the program with another. If a program is canceled, full refunds will be issued.

Resident Rate Passes are available for non residents who wish to register for classes at a resident rate. These passes can be purchased for $100/household and will allow non residents to register for classes at the resident rate during the last three days of the registration period (walk-in registration only). Resident Rate Passes are good for one year from the date of issue. These passes are eligible for all recreation classes; they do not apply to the Birthday Party Packages, Open Gym, child care, Fit 4 Life, or rentals.

Behavior Policy: Participants are expected to exhibit appropriate behavior at all times. The following guidelines have been developed to help make the Recreation Department safe and enjoyable for all participants.

Participants shall: 1) show respect to all participants and staff; 2) refrain from using foul language; 3) refrain from causing bodily harm to another participant or staff; 4) show respect for equipment, supplies and facilities.

(815) 886-6222 • www.romeoville.org

ID Policy: All registrants will be asked to show one form of photo identification to ensure residency and confirm information on file.

Components of Fitness To improve your overall fitness, it is important to have a balance of the five components of fitness. These components are:

1.

1 Cardio-Respiratory Endurance: The ability to do moderately strenuous activity over a period of time. It reflects how well your heart and lungs work together to supply oxygen to your body during exertion and exercise.

2.

2 Muscular Strength: The ability to exert maximum force, one time. An example would be a one time lift of the heaviest weight you can manage.

3.

3 Muscular Endurance: The ability of a muscle or muscle group to repeat a movement many times or to hold a particular position for an extended period of time.

4.

4 Flexibility: The degree to which individual muscles will lengthen and the ability to move a joint through its full range of motion.

5.

5 Body Composition: The proportion of fat in the body compared to the amount of lean mass.

Each group fitness program is labeled with the components it strengthens. Multiple components may apply to individual classes, or they may only have one. Sign up for all the different components to get a complete workout!
