BOARD MEETINGS

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Residents, What an extraordinary year of changes we are experiencing! The Wheeling Park District has been and will continue to be committed to fulfilling our mission of providing memorable experiences in parks and recreation that enrich our communities. We are excited to present our November-December Fall events and program guide. Thank you for your continued patience and cooperation as we adapt to the challenging circumstances.

The Guest Service Desk is now staffed Monday through Saturday; see page 2 for hours. Your health and safety remain our top priorities. A full set of best practices has been put in place to ensure your safety and comfort. As you enjoy our beautiful parks and facilities, please remember to follow all guidelines for your own well being and that of your neighbors. (See page 4 for details.)

This fall, we welcomed our preschool students to a brand new, colorful space designed to foster imaginative and creative play. New this year is our Preschool to Go take-home option to facilitate “Learning through Play” virtually. Other online classes also are available.

There is still time for an end-of-season round of golf at Chevy Chase and Rob Roy. Tee-times may be reserved 24/7 online. In addition to outdoor pickleball and basketball courts, you can participate in drop-in and athletic programs in our two gyms. Check the website for schedules and updates. A variety of rental rooms and spaces are available for parties and family gatherings (subject to capacity limits). We invite you to visit Chevy Chase and the newly-designed and renovated rooms and event spaces at the CRC and Rob Roy to see how we can make your celebrations easy and comfortable.

The Health and Fitness Center is open seven days a week. Shake up your workout routine in group exercise classes; advance registration is required.

Take advantage of the Personal Training sale and the membership special for students. Plans are underway to open the Indoor Pool. Stay tuned for more information coming soon!

A full listing of the programs, services, and facilities can be found on the following pages of this guide and on our website, wheelingparkdistrict.com. As more programs are added, the website will be updated in real-time. Bookmark and check the website frequently for new information.

I look forward to seeing you soon at the Wheeling Park District. Stay safe!

Yours in Parks and Recreation,

HEALTH & SAFETY PRECAUTIONS The Wheeling Park District is currently operating under Phase 4 guidelines of the Restore Illinois Plan (Region 10), allowing the district to offer limited programs and events, and open some of its facilities with additional operational guidelines. For the safety of all guests and staff, the District has instituted the following measures with the guidance of city, state and federal health authorities.

MASKS AND FACE COVERINGS All guests over the age of 2 and staff are required to wear a mask or face covering in all indoor facilities including, but not limited to, visiting the Guest Service Desk, walking to and from a program or activity, entering and/or exiting a facility, waiting for a child or guest requiring assistance who is currently participating in a program or activity, and using the restrooms. All guests visiting a District facility are responsible for bringing their own mask and/or face covering.

Health & Fitness members may only remove their masks and/or face coverings while actively exercising or working out on a machine or piece of equipment inside the Health & Fitness Center, or when participating in a group exercise class. In these instances, guests must maintain at least a six foot distance from others.

SELF SCREENING All guests and staff cannot participate in any program or activity if they have any of the following COVID-19 symptoms or if they have been exposed to COVID-19. If a house member is awaiting results, please stay home until results are confirmed negative.

C0VID-19 SYMPTOMS • Loss or decrease in the sense of taste or smell • Fever - Temperature of 100.4 or higher, or chills • Muscle, head or body aches • Shortness of breath • Cough and/or congestion • Runny nose • Fatigue • Nausea, vomiting or diarrhea

C0VID-19 EXPOSURE • Living in the same household as a sick person with COVID-19 • Caring for a sick person with COVID-19 • Being within 6 feet of a sick person with COVID-19 for about 15 minutes • Being in direct contact with secretions from a sick person with COVID-19

SOCIAL DISTANCING All guests must maintain at least 6-feet physical separation between themselves and others around them, including other guests and staff.

HAND WASHING / SANITIZING Facility patrons and staff are recommended to frequently wash their hands often with soap and clean water for 20 seconds or longer, especially after contact with public surfaces. If hand washing is not possible, it is recommended the use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers (with at least 60% alcohol).

GROUP SIZES & CAPACITY LIMITS Current group gatherings are limited to 50 people. Please note that to ensure the safety of staff and participants, many district programs and activities have a lower class limit based on room size and type of activity.

CLEANING & COMMON AREAS In addition to regular daily cleaning, all Wheeling Park District facilities are aggressively disinfected, including doorknobs, rails and high touch areas. Open facilities also provide restrooms for hand washing, as well as hand sanitizers. All lounges and other gathering areas are closed to the general public. Only registered participants in a program or activity and one additional caregiver are allowed inside indoor facilities.

ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES Additional guidelines and restrictions may apply to specific facilities, programs and activities. The District will closely monitor the guidelines and recommendations set forth by federal, state and local public health organizations, and will continue to post updates on the District's website, www.wheelingparkdistrict.com to keep guests informed of any changes as quickly as possible.

LIGHTNING PREDICTION LOCKER ROOMS The locker room is an amenity available & WARNING SYSTEMS By measuring the amount of electrical charge in the atmosphere, Thorguard Warning System predicts with a high degree of certainty the probability of a lightning strike within a covered area.

This system warns guests and staff with a horn and strobe system when a lightning strike hazard is present. Areas served by Thorguard include Heritage Park, Family Aquatic Center, CRC and all adjacent areas and neighborhoods.

The system is intended to warn guests and staff of probable lightning hazards in the area so lightning-related injuries and deaths can be avoided. Since Thorguard is a lightning prediction system, it is possible for the warning system to be activated even when weather conditions do not seem to indicate lightning is present. Be assured that these warnings are accurate and must be followed to ensure personal safety.

Two distinct signals sent out by Thorguard: RED ALERT External warning horns blare for 15 seconds and strobe lights begin to blink. This signifies a lightning hazard in the area. All outdoor recreation activity should be suspended and guests and staff should seek appropriate shelter, preferably indoors. ALL CLEAR External warning horns give three consecutive blasts lasting 3-5 seconds each.

This means the lightning hazard has left the area and it is safe to resume

normal activities. Chevy Chase is protected under the WeatherBug lightning detection system.

VANDALISM

The Wheeling Park District has experienced a tremendous amount of vandalism. This vandalism in our community has included acts of arson, destruction of playground equipment and landscaping materials, destruction of bathroom fixtures, stolen materials and graffiti. Vandalism affects residents and other guests when bathrooms are closed, playground equipment is under repair and amenities are not available for use. Vandalism is costly to repair and results in higher insurance costs.

In order to ensure the safest parks and facilities possible, we need your help. We ask that when you see or hear about vandalism or something that may be unsafe, such as broken playground equipment, or anything else that you feel may be hazardous, please call 847-465-3333 or complete the online Report a Problem form under the Parks and Facilities tab.
