Start with all the special events at beautiful Heritage Park including the Earth Day Celebration on April 28, Craft Beer & Wine Festival on June 22, Classic Car Show and Touch-a-Truck on July 27, and International Festival on August 18. The free Summer Entertainment Series begins June 7 with the first of three once-a-month “Friday Night Headliners” concerts; three once-a-month “Movies in the Park” begin Thursday, June 27, and the “Sounds of Summer” concerts are every Sunday evening starting June 9.

“Unplug at the Park” is an opportunity to connect with family, friends and neighbors every Wednesday evening starting June 12. Explore a different park each week. For more details, see page 12.

The Family Aquatic Center is the best way to beat the heat this summer. Take advantage of our Early Bird Membership Special and save 10% when you purchase by April 30.

Construction on the renovated fitness center is scheduled to be completed this summer! Watch for our Grand Opening Celebration and get a peek at the 42,000 square-feet of light-filled space featuring new fitness machines, a dedicated entrance and locker rooms, group exercise areas and a second gymnasium. To top it all off, membership rates are now $26 per month. Find your STRONG here!

Some free fitness events are coming up, too. The Family Health Fair takes place at the CRC on May 4. Come to the Heritage Park Performance Pavilion on July 20 for the Family Zumba Party.

If you’ve been to Summer Camp, you know the benefits remain with you through adulthood. From staying active to developing confidence to making time for play, all have positive effects. Sign your kids up today for memories and friendships that last a lifetime.

For those of you who are anxious to hit the links, Traditions at Chevy Chase is offering some fun events including themed scrambles and cool contests along with monthly date nights. See page 54 for all the details.

The possibilities for memorable experiences this spring and summer are endless. Get out and enjoy the fresh air, the pools, the trips, the sports and the drop-in activities.

See you in the parks!

Parks and Facilities Information PARK HOURS

All parks are open from sunrise to sunset.

LIGHTNING PREDICTION & 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.

LOUD MUSIC & ALCOHOL

Loud music and outside alcohol are not permitted on any Park District property.

PETS

Pets must be on a leash length of six feet or less, including extendable leashes, at all times.

LOCKER ROOMS

The locker room is an amenity available for use by all CRC participants. The purpose is for storage of personal belongings while using the facility. Each participant needs to furnish his/her own lock. Overnight storage is NOT permitted. The Wheeling Park District is not responsible for lost and/or stolen property. Please do not store valuables in lockers. Wallet lockers are available in the indoor pool, gymnasium, and Fitness Center.

RAINOUT LINE

The Rainout Line helps keep you up-to-date on programs and events when adverse weather is forecast. This service lets you choose how you want to be notified.

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.

NO SMOKING

Smoking is prohibited in all wooded areas on Park District property and within 100 feet of any point of a soccer, baseball and football field, any outdoor court and all Park District buildings.

REWARD PROGRAM

Help the Wheeling Park District stop vandalism in your neighborhood park.

Call us with information about the person or persons who vandalize any Wheeling Park District property. This would include the destruction of any property such as vehicles, playground equipment or landscape materials, the theft of any equipment or materials, any act of arson, and any act of graffiti. If your information leads to arrest, case resolution and/or restitution, you will be given a reward from $500 to $5000. Your name will be kept confidential.
