BOARD<br />

OF COMMISSIONERS<br />

MISSION STATEMENT<br />

TO PROVIDE MEMORABLE EXPERIENCES IN PARKS<br />

& RECREATION THAT ENRICH OUR COMMUNITIES.<br />

SUE STEIN<br />

PRESIDENT<br />

LETTER<br />

FROM THE PRESIDENT<br />

BRIAN LICHTENBERGER<br />

VICE PRESIDENT<br />

Dear residents and guests,<br />

At this special time of year, when friends and family gather together, keep the Wheeling Park District<br />

in mind as the place for memorable experiences.<br />

Join us for the FREE Winter Festival on Sunday, January 17, at the Community Recreation Center<br />

(CRC). All ages will enjoy this celebration of the season with fun activities. Two teen ski trips are planned<br />

for ages 11 to 14, one in January and another in February. Plus, new in <strong>2016</strong>, are magic classes (ages 5<br />

to 12) and Cupcake Boss (ages 6 to 12). Details are on page 9. The ice rink will also be open at Heritage<br />

Park/CRC for free skating when weather permits.<br />

Like most of us, your New Year’s resolution probably has something to do with health or wellness.<br />

Become a member of your community fitness center. Our experts at the Wheeling Park District Fitness<br />

Center are friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and will make you feel at home. You may also notice some<br />

dust as we make some enhancements to our fitness areas in the next few weeks. We appreciate your<br />

patience and know you’ll enjoy the outcome. Fitness specials are going on throughout January, so stop by<br />

or call the fitness desk for details, at 847-465-2943.<br />

It’s been great to see so many people enjoying Heritage Park. Enjoy the fresh, crisp air this season and<br />

take in the views along the site’s lake-loop path. It’s a little less than a mile. If you follow the path over the<br />

footbridge to Wolf Road, back along the pedestrian walkway over Buffalo Creek to Lake Heritage, you<br />

will have walked almost two miles. Bring a friend or make it a family activity. April 23 brings the NEW<br />

Family 2K Hustle to Heritage Park. Registration is going on now and more information is included on<br />

the back cover.<br />

Think summer: Summer camp registration starts January 1. Check out the special camp pull-out<br />

section in the center of the brochure. It tells you everything you need to know about summer camp<br />

fun for preschoolers to teens, and includes all the registration forms. Save-the-Date: Plan to attend the<br />

Camp Counselor Meet-n-Greet, Saturday, June 4, 10 a.m. to noon, at the CRC, meet counselors and<br />

staff, learn about camps, and more.<br />

On behalf of the Park District Board of Commissioners and staff, I wish you a joyous holiday season<br />

and a healthy New Year!<br />

Yours in Parks and Recreation,<br />

Sue Stein, President<br />

CHILDREN WHO TURN THREE BETWEEN<br />

SEPTEMBER 1 & DECEMBER 31, <strong>2016</strong><br />

If your child has a “late” birthday, get<br />

a head start in our Preschool program.<br />

Teachers developed this class to<br />

encourage the transition from home<br />

to school with an introduction to group<br />

activities, following directions, and social<br />

skills. All of this serves to support the<br />

“learning through play” philosophy.<br />

TERRIFIC THREES<br />

MUST BE THREE BEFORE SEPTEMBER 1, <strong>2016</strong><br />

The three-year-old program is<br />

designed for a child ready to flourish<br />

in a school setting. Our program stresses<br />

socialization, cooperative play, fine motor<br />

skills, sharing, and following directions.<br />

Choose from a two-day per week or<br />

a three-day per week class option.<br />

Terrific Threes is the middle step in our<br />

continuum of “learning though play.”<br />

In this positive, nurturing environment,<br />

children are introduced to colors,<br />

letters, and numbers, all of which<br />

help to encourage a love of learning<br />

and education.<br />

School District #21 kindergarten<br />

teachers and stresses the development<br />

of independence and cognitive skills<br />

through learning centers, structured<br />

activities, socialization, cooperative and<br />

dramatic play, and sharing. In this final<br />

step before kindergarten, make sure your<br />

eager learner is as prepared as possible!<br />

IMPORTANT INFORMATION<br />

The Wheeling Park District is committed to conducting its recreation programs and activities in a safe<br />

manner and holds the safety of participants in high regard. The Wheeling Park District continually<br />

strives to reduce such risks and insists that all participants follow safety rules and instructions that<br />

are designed to protect the participants’ safety. However, participants and parents/guardians of<br />

minors registering for this program/activity must recognize that there is an inherent risk of injury when<br />

choosing to participate in recreational activities/programs.<br />

You are solely responsible for determining if you or your minor child/ward are physically fit and/or<br />

WARNING OF RISK<br />

Recreational activities are intended to challenge and engage the physical, mental and emotional<br />

resources of each participant. Despite careful and proper preparation, instruction, medical advice,<br />

conditioning and equipment, there is still a risk of serious injury when participating in any<br />

recreational activity. All hazards and dangers cannot be foreseen. Depending on the particular<br />

skill level or conditioning, carelessness, horseplay, unsportsmanlike conduct, premises’ defects,<br />

inadequate or defective equipment, inadequate supervision, instruction or officiating, and other risks<br />

inherent to the particular activity. In this regard, it is impossible for the Wheeling Park District to<br />

guarantee absolute safety.<br />

acknowledge that there are certain risks of physical injury to participants in this program/activity, and<br />

I voluntarily agree to assume the full risk of any and all injuries, damages or loss, regardless of<br />

severity, that my minor child/ward or I may sustain as a result of said participation. I further agree to<br />

waive and relinquish all claims I or my minor child/ward may have (or accrue to me or my child/ward)<br />

as a result of participating in this program/activity against the Wheeling Park District, including its<br />

officials, agents, volunteers and employees.<br />

I HAVE READ AND FULLY UNDERSTAND THE ABOVE IMPORTANT INFORMATION, WARNING OF RISK,<br />

TRADITIONS AT<br />

CHEVY CHASE GOLF COURSE<br />

Experience 18 holes of championship golf at Traditions at Chevy Chase.<br />

The Traditions golf course, originally designed and built in 1927 by<br />

renowned architect Thomas Bendelow, was renovated in 2002 by Bob<br />

Lohmann. The par-72 course is reflective of the architecture from the<br />

origin of the game of golf. Deep pot bunkers lined with native fescue<br />

grasses, generous rolling greens, and undulating bent-grass fairways are<br />

some of the great features guests enjoy. Four sets of tees challenge players<br />

of all skill levels. The mature tree-lined fairways provide a relaxing and<br />

enjoyable experience for all players.<br />

Best of all, the Chevy Chase guest services teams take you back to the<br />

era of the course’s original opening in the 1920s <strong>–</strong> a time when respect<br />

and relationships were valued. With concierge-style service provided by a<br />

courteous professional team, Traditions at Chevy Chase is a golfer’s delight.<br />

Traditions at Chevy Chase golf carts are fully equipped with the latest<br />

GPS technology. Not only does the cart carry your clubs, it determines<br />

yardage to the pin and other key locations.<br />

behavior at all times. Please observe the<br />

following guidelines:<br />

THORGUARD LIGHTNING<br />

PREDICTION & WARNING SYSTEM<br />

By measuring the amount of electrical charge in<br />

the atmosphere, Thorguard predicts with a high<br />

degree of certainty the probability of a lightning<br />

strike within a covered area. This system warns<br />

guests and staff with a horn and strobe system<br />

when a lightning strike hazard is present. Areas<br />

served by Thorguard include Heritage Park,<br />

Family Aquatic Center, CRC, and all adjacent<br />

areas and neighborhoods.<br />

The system is intended to warn guests and<br />

staff of probable lightning hazards in the area<br />

so lightning-related injuries and deaths can<br />

be avoided. Since Thorguard is a lightning<br />

prediction system, it is possible for the<br />

warning system to be activated even when<br />

weather conditions do not seem to indicate<br />

lightning is present. Be assured that these<br />

warnings are accurate and must be followed<br />

to ensure personal safety.<br />

Two distinct signals sent out by Thorguard:<br />

RED ALERT External warning horns blare for<br />

15 seconds and strobe lights begin to blink.<br />

This signifies a lightning hazard in the area.<br />

All outdoor recreation activity should be<br />

suspended and guests and staff should seek<br />

appropriate shelter, preferably indoors.<br />

ALL CLEAR External warning horns give three<br />

consecutive blasts lasting 3-5 seconds each.<br />

This means the lightning hazard has left the<br />

area and it is safe to resume normal activities.<br />

Chevy Chase is protected under the WeatherBug<br />

lightning detection system.<br />

LOCKER ROOMS<br />

The locker room is an amenity available for<br />

use by all CRC participants. The purpose is<br />

for storage of personal belongings while using<br />

the facility. Each participant needs to furnish<br />

his/her own lock. Overnight storage is available.<br />

Private locker rooms are available on a rental<br />

basis. For more information see the Fitness<br />

section of this Program Guide.<br />

The Wheeling Park District is not responsible<br />

for lost and/or stolen property. Please do not<br />

store valuables in lockers. Wallet lockers are<br />

available in the Arctic Splash, gymnasium,<br />

and Fitness Center.<br />

IMAGE RECORDING DEVICES<br />

The use of any image recording devices,<br />

including video recorders, cameras, and phone<br />

cameras, is strictly prohibited in all Wheeling<br />

Park District facility locker rooms, washrooms,<br />

and shower areas.<br />

Please report any violations immediately to<br />

facility management.<br />

VANDALISM<br />

The Wheeling Park District has experienced<br />

a tremendous amount of vandalism. This<br />

vandalism in our community has included<br />

acts of arson, destruction of playground<br />

equipment and landscaping materials, destruction<br />

of bathroom fixtures, stolen materials, and<br />

graffiti, as well as the destruction of the waterfall<br />

feature at Husky Park.<br />

Vandalism affects residents and other guests<br />

when bathrooms are closed, playground<br />

equipment is under repair, and amenities are<br />

not available for use. Vandalism is costly to<br />

repair and results in higher insurance costs.<br />

In order to ensure the safest parks and facilities<br />

possible, we need your help. We ask that when<br />

you see or hear about vandalism or something<br />

that may be unsafe, such as broken playground<br />

equipment, or anything else that you feel may<br />

be hazardous, please call 847-465-3333 or<br />

complete the online Report a Problem form<br />

under the Parks and Facilities tab.<br />

REWARD PROGRAM<br />

Help the Wheeling Park District stop<br />

vandalism in your neighborhood park.<br />

Call us with information about the person<br />

or persons who vandalize any Wheeling Park<br />

District property. This would include the<br />

destruction of any property such as vehicles,<br />

playground equipment, or landscape materials,<br />

the theft of any equipment or materials, any<br />

act of arson, and any act of graffiti.<br />

If your information leads to arrest, case<br />

resolution and/or restitution, you will be<br />

given a reward from $500 to $5000. Your<br />

name will be kept confidential.<br />
