2 • Winter Spring 2018-2019

A Message from our Director Our 2018 Founder’s Day Parade was a huge success and we couldn’t have done it without the many volunteers and residents who come out to assist and participate.

The new amenities completed this year at Deer Crossing Park has allowed us the opportunity to improve our events with a concession area and restroom. We hope you like the new additions!

Come on out and visit our parks! We have several parks that will be getting improvements in the near future: Malibu Park – this new park has been completed and we hope you enjoy future visits!

Budler Park – We will be providing a new playground for 5 to 12-year-old children in conjunction with the Plainfield Township Park District, with the renovation beginning in the spring.

Discovery Park (300 S. Highpoint Drive) – Our biggest park thus far, will be open in the spring of 2019. This 51-acre park will include 5 athletic fields, sand volleyball, three half-court basketball areas, and walking trails. This park was partially funded by the Illinois Open Space Land Acquisition grant (OSLAD).

Joliet Junior College (1125 W. Romeo Road) – We will be opening these leased openspace fields in the spring of 2019.

Tennis Courts at the Rec Center – New lights were installed and will be ready for play in spring.

Please read through our brochure to find a variety of interesting events, programs, classes, and more for the entire family. See you at the Rec!

DON’T WAIT IN LINES — REGISTER ONLINE

Make your registration experience quick and easy! Check online for the programs you want. Don’t wait in lines or miss out on registering for a class! Some programs are not eligible for online registration — please ask the front desk for details.

ONLINE REGISTRATION POLICY Anyone can register online for recreation programs. Romeoville residents must first acquire a user name and password to receive resident rates online. Heads of household must come in to the Recreation Center and provide proof of residency and identity. At that time, a user name and password will be issued. The password expires after one year and residency status must be renewed annually. Residents who do not update their residency at the Recreation Center will be charged non-refundable, non-resident fees.

For technical assistance (i.e., lost password, troubleshooting, etc.) please call (815) 886-6222.

PLEASE NOTE: ROMEOVILLE RESIDENTS HAVE PRIORITY IN REGISTERING FOR ALL PROGRAMS. 4 • Winter Spring 2018-2019

Registration Frequently Asked Questions PAYMENT OF FEES Fees may be paid by cash, check, Visa, Discover, or MasterCard at the time of registration. All monies are immediately deposited.

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 fifteen (15) to thirty (30) 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, through the mail, or via e-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 (except 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.

PROGRAM ENROLLMENT POLICY 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.

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.

INSURANCE 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.

TOILET TRAINING POLICY Children enrolled in a program for ages 3 and older must be toilet trained unless it is a parent/toddler class. We 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. We reserve 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 Northern Will 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 recreation activities and with any accommodations needed to make sure it is an optimal experience for participants. If your child needs assistance, please mention this on your registration form or upon registration.

We do our best to provide inclusion aides for all requests; however, from time to time an aide may not be available because of the class time or day.

RESIDENT RATE A Resident Rate Status is available for non residents who wish to register for classes at a resident rate. This can be purchased for $100 per household and will allow non residents to register for classes at the resident rate during the non-resident registration period (walk-in registration only). A Resident Rate Status is 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.

ID POLICY All registrants will be asked to show one form of photo identification to ensure residency and confirm information on file. Please be prepared to show identification at any time (state-issued ID or drivers license).

PROGRAM SCHOLARSHIPS Program scholarships are to assist families in need and are based on the availability of funds. These scholarships are only available to Romeoville residents who can provide proof of income or eligibility of need (i.e. free/reduced school lunch program, IL Dept. of Public Aid recipient, most recent W-2 for all members living in household). In addition, proof of Romeoville residency is also required. Applications can be picked up at the Recreation Center and must be submitted during the registration period with supporting documentation. Notification of scholarship approval will be provided after the registration period. Scholarships will not provide 100% of program fees, do not pay for program supplies, and Day Camp, Creative Play Preschool, and Before and After School childcare programs are excluded. Please contact the Recreation Center for more information at 815-886-6222.
