Dear Vernon Hills Residents,<br />
I know it may not feel like it yet, but soon warmer weather will welcome everyone back<br />
to the parks, kids back to the playgrounds and camps, and families to the pool.<br />
Speaking of pools, Family Aquatic Center (FAC) season passes are on sale now!<br />
Purchase your pass before April 30th and save 10%. I hope everyone who enjoys our<br />
aquatic center all summer long will attend our annual <strong>Summer</strong> Splash pool party family<br />
event on August 5th.<br />
Kids’ Castle Playground in Deerpath Park will be getting a complete makeover this<br />
spring. Its originality and charm will be represented in a new design representative of a<br />
castle. Thank you to all of the residents who came out to Deerpath Park in the fall to help<br />
tear down the original Kids’ Castle. Other renovations to Deerpath Park include the<br />
addition of player’s benches, bleachers, backstops to the ball fields; electricity, and six<br />
tennis courts.<br />
The Sullivan Community Center will be undergoing a renovation beginning this June<br />
with a completion in the spring of 2017. The Administrative staff, currently housed in<br />
the Larry Laschen Community Center, is moving to the Sullivan Center and additional office<br />
space is being created for this purpose. Additionally, a new, secure preschool wing is being<br />
developed with four classrooms and a second gymnasium is being built too. A more detailed<br />
explanation of the renovation can be found on page 4.<br />
The Turtles Swim Team coaches are offering swim clinics during <strong>Spring</strong> Break, March<br />
21-25. The clinics are focused on committed swimmers who are interested in furthering<br />
their competitive strokes. Moreover, a Red Cross Lifeguard Certification class is also<br />
offered during spring break for those 15 years and older. Successful completion of this<br />
course results in a 2-year Lifeguard Certification. See page 6 for details.<br />
Outdoor water recreational programs are now being offered at the Park District!<br />
Youth Sailing classes (page 36) and Adult Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP) classes (page 42)<br />
are being offered multiple times in June and July. Learn a new sport and register for these<br />
new programs early! We are also offering new adult fitness classes: Simply Strength, TRX,<br />
and Masala Bhangra. Classes are listed beginning on page 46. The time is now to find what<br />
fitness program works best for you!<br />
Mark your calendar for our Movies in the Park series! Free movies will be shown on<br />
the last Friday of the month, June through August in Deerpath Park. Check the website<br />
for the featured movie of the month. We have eight special events (pages 6-10) planned<br />
for this spring and summer! On Saturday, July 23, we are offering our first Flick & Float, a<br />
family evening at the Family Aquatic Center to play in the pool and watch a movie on the big,<br />
inflatable movie screen. Also, don’t forget to mark your calendars for our annual Little Bear<br />
Ribfest on August 19th and 20th.<br />
Have fun this summer and be sure to take time to enjoy your parks.<br />

SULLIVAN COMMUNITY CENTER RENOVATION PROJECT<br />
Sullivan Community Center Renovation: Explanation and Renderings<br />
The Vernon Hills Park District is renovating and expanding the Sullivan Community Center.<br />
Construction will begin in June, <strong>2016</strong> and is scheduled to be completed in <strong>Spring</strong>, 2017.<br />
The project includes:<br />
Four new preschool rooms on the<br />
south side of the building. Existing<br />
preschool rooms will be demolished.<br />
A gymnasium addition at the northeast<br />
corner of the building.<br />
A new main entry form on the east<br />
side of the building (adjacent to the<br />
main parking lot).<br />
<br />
Administrative staff currently housed in<br />
the Laschen Community Center.<br />
The existing Sullivan Community<br />
Center exterior is decorative concrete<br />
block with brick highlight bands. The<br />
proposed additions will utilize these<br />
same materials, maintaining a similar<br />
aesthetic. The new east entrance will<br />
have a vaulted entry canopy, replicating<br />
the current architecture.<br />
<br />
drop off lane along the south side of the<br />
building, re-orientating the sidewalk<br />
along the entry drive in that location,<br />
enclosing the preschool playground with<br />
ing<br />
the entry walk and parking at the<br />
new east entrance. The pedestrian<br />
pathway along the north side of the<br />
building will be relocated to continue<br />
around the new gymnasium addition.<br />

Help Protect Your Pool<br />
Contamination of our pools can be avoided<br />
with your help! In the best interests of all our<br />
patrons, we ask that you take the following<br />
safety precautions when visiting the FAC:<br />
Take children to the toilet often.<br />
All children who are not toilet-trained,<br />
<br />
over diapers or swim diapers.<br />
Change infants/toddlers diapers in a<br />
bathroom.<br />
Never rinse off an un-diapered child in the<br />
pool.<br />
Shower with soap and warm water before<br />
entering the pool.<br />
Avoid using the pool if you are currently<br />
suffering from diarrhea, and for at least two<br />
weeks after you have recovered.<br />
Do not drink or swallow pool water.<br />
Inform a lifeguard if you see fecal matter in<br />
the pool.<br />
The Family Aquatic Center complies with<br />
the procedures recommended by the Illinois<br />
Department of Public Health. In the event of<br />
a fecal or vomit accident, we will:<br />
1. Clear the water of all swimmers.<br />
2. Remove as much of the matter from the<br />
water as possible.<br />
3. Clean and disinfect equipment used to<br />
remove the matter.<br />
4. Place powdered chlorine or liquid bleach in<br />
the contaminated area to raise the chlorine<br />
level.<br />
5. Close the water area for 30 minutes.<br />
6. Test water in the affected area. The pool<br />
will re-open if readings fall within the appropriate<br />
ranges.<br />
7. Maintain chlorine level of at least 2.0 ppm<br />
for 24 hrs.<br />
17. Lifeguards are responsible for enforcing safety rules and responding to emergencies.<br />
Parents or guardians should supervise their children.<br />
18. The Vernon Hills Park District reserves the right to add additional rules and policies or enforce<br />
current rules and policies more strictly as needed without notice.<br />

lesson is being held? Patrons should call our weather hotline at<br />
(847)996-6616 or check the website.<br />
2. How old do you have to be to come to the facility by yourself?<br />
A child must be 11 years old to come to the pool without adult<br />
supervision. Children 10 and under must be accompanied by an<br />
adult, 16 years or older, at all times.<br />
3. Can I come back in the facility later if I have already paid?<br />
Yes, you must get a hand stamp at the front entrance when you<br />
are leaving which will enable you to re-enter the facility at a later<br />
time that same day.<br />
4. What do I do if there is bad weather while I’m at the FAC?<br />
Will I get my money back? If thunder and lightning or other<br />
inclement weather are seen at the Family Aquatic Center, all<br />
patrons are expected to either go into the bathhouses or exit<br />
the facility and wait in their car until weather passes. Waiting<br />
under an umbrella on the pool deck or in the concession stand<br />
is prohibited. No refunds are given if the facility closes due to<br />
inclement weather.<br />
5. What is the temperature of the water in the pool? The District<br />
attempts to maintain the water at a temperature of 82 degrees<br />
fahrenheit. Though the pools are heated, long periods of cold<br />
ing<br />
operating hours.<br />
6. Can I put my niece, who is staying with me for the summer, on<br />
my family pool pass? Those relatives that are only going to be<br />
residing with the pass holder over the summer must either pay a<br />
daily fee or be added to the family pass as a non-resident.<br />
7. How do I avoid the lines and crowd in the concession stand?<br />
On a typical day, the busiest time in the concession area is during<br />
our adult swim breaks. To avoid standing in line, it is best to<br />
go right before or right after these times.<br />
8. Why are the lap lanes and main pool not open from 10:30-<br />
11:30 am? During this time, our swim lesson program is held in<br />
the main leisure pool. However, the remainder of the facility is<br />
available for your enjoyment.<br />
9. Can I use my pass from last year? Yes. If you still have your<br />
pass from last year, it can be reactivated. Prior to opening<br />
weekend, check your pass to ensure it is in good condition for<br />
scanning. Passes can be reprinted at no charge each year when<br />
you renew your pass. You may want to check and make sure<br />
your photo is up to date in our system.<br />
10. If I do not plan on swimming, do I still have to pay the<br />
admission fee? Yes. Unfortunately we have no way of keeping<br />
track of who swims and who does not once you have entered the<br />
facility. To be fair, everyone is charged an admission fee.<br />
11. Can I bring my own food into the Family Aquatic Center? No.<br />
For your convenience, the Family Aquatic Center has a concession<br />
stand where food can be purchased. Anyone wishing to<br />
bring their own food/drink must consume it outside the FAC. We<br />
have picnic tables located in front of the facility.<br />
12. What toys can I bring to the pool? Staff reserves the right<br />
to prohibit the use of any and all water toys at the facility. This is<br />
tion<br />
devices are allowed at the pool at any time. These include<br />
<br />
13. Can previously purchased Daily Admissions be applied<br />
towards the purchase of a Season Pass? No, previously purchased<br />
Daily Admissions cannot be applied towards a Season<br />
Pass.<br />
14. Can I use a life jacket for my child? Coast Guard<br />
approved life jackets are allowed. An adult, 16 years or older,<br />
must be within arms reach of any child using a life jacket at all<br />
times. Check with the pool management staff to insure your life<br />
jacket is acceptable.<br />

SWIM LESSONS<br />
Swim Lessons<br />
The goal of the Park District’s swim program is to create a life-long interest in aquatics activities, promote a healthy lifestyle and<br />
improve a child’s safety in the water. Lessons follow the American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim guidelines. Taught by instructors who<br />
<br />
Selecting the Right Class for Your Child<br />
<br />
lists a skill that your child has not yet mastered.<br />
<br />
ensure that they are placed in the proper level. Adjustments<br />
will be made if necessary. Swimming requires advanced motor<br />
<br />
3. It is not uncommon to spend more than one session in a<br />
particular level. This is especially true with levels 2, 3 and 4.<br />
Therefore, do not expect your child to automatically advance to<br />
the next level at the end of a session.<br />
4. If you are unsure about your child’s abilities or have questions<br />
about the different courses or swim class policies, contact<br />
Matt DeWitt, Aquatic Supervisor at (847) 996-3488.<br />

sequencing, comparisons, and matching. The other half, we will<br />
spend time in the gym and focus on physical activities to<br />
improve our gross motor skills. Each child will need to bring a<br />
sack lunch and drink. This is a drop off class and a great<br />

Preschool FAQ’s<br />
Do preschoolers need to be potty trained? Children in 2 year old and Young<br />
3’s preschool do not need to be potty trained, however instructors are not<br />
responsible for changing diapers. Three, four and Pre-K preschool children<br />
must be potty trained.<br />
What is your discipline policy? We use a brief time-out in the classroom. Our<br />
goal in using this technique is to remove a child from the situation long enough<br />
to allow him/her to regain control of him/herself. Positive redirection is<br />
another core discipline procedure. Appropriate boundaries and rules for behavior<br />
are established early in the school year.<br />
Can I observe a class in session? Yes! Call Gail Herrmann at 847-996-6808,<br />
to set up an appointment.<br />

with the geography of the instrument and master basics of<br />
playing technique, the ability to read music comes easier. The<br />

<br />
AQUATIC CENTER PASS WAIVER & RELEASE<br />
Important Information<br />
The Vernon Hills Park District “Park District” is committed to providing safe aquatic facilities and programs and holds the safety of<br />
participants in high regard. The Park District continually strives to reduce such risks and insists that all participants follow safety rules<br />
and instructions that are designed to protect the participants’ safety. However, participants and parents/guardians of minors engaged in<br />
aquatic activities must recognize that there is an inherent risk of injury.<br />
You are solely responsible for determining if you or your minor child/ward are physically fit and/or adequately skilled for the activities<br />
associated with this Pool Pass. It is always advisable, especially if the participant is pregnant, disabled in any way or recently suffered<br />
an illness, injury or impairment, to consult a physician before undertaking any physical/aquatic activity.<br />
Please understand and recognize that lifeguards are not responsible for providing supervision or assessing your swimming skills or that<br />
of your minor child; rather, lifeguards are responsible for enforcing safety rules and responding to emergencies. Adult pool pass holders<br />
and parents of minor pool pass holders are solely responsible for supervision of any and all activities contemplated by this agreement.<br />
Additionally, children 10 years of age and younger must be supervised at all times by a responsible person, 16 years of age or older.<br />
NEVER LEAVE ANY CHILD WITH POOR SWIMMING SKILLS OR 10 YEARS OF AGE AND YOUNGER<br />
UNACCOMPANIED BY A PARENT OR RESPONSIBLE PERSON, 16 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER<br />
Warning of Risk<br />
Swimming and other aquatic activities challenge and engage the physical, mental and emotional resources of each participant<br />
.However, despite careful and proper preparation, instruction, medical advice, conditioning and equipment, there is still a risk of serious<br />
injury, including but not limited to drowning, head/brain injury, and spinal cord injury. Understandably not all hazards and dangers can<br />
be foreseen. The very nature of swimming and aquatic activities are hazardous and risky including but not limited to fatigue and<br />
overexertion, poor swimming skills, failing to avoid dangerous areas, failing to follow rules and regulations, failure of lifeguards to locate<br />
victims and/or delay in emergency response time, horseplay, diving or cannon-balling into shallow water and striking the bottom or side<br />
of the pool or waterslide, inadequate supervision or instruction, lack of conditioning, becoming disoriented, striking other swimmers,<br />
striking one’s head on the bottom, slip and falls on the deck or within the locker facility, chemical exposure and all other circumstances<br />
inherent to aquatic activities. In this regard, it must be recognized that it is impossible for the Park District to guarantee absolute safety.<br />
Waiver and Release of all Claims and Assumption of Risk<br />
Please read this form carefully and be aware that in consideration for this Pool Pass, you will be expressly assuming the<br />
risk and legal liability and waiving and releasing all claims for injuries, damages or loss which you or your minor child/<br />
ward might sustain as a result of participating in any and all activities connected with and associated with use of the Park<br />
District aquatic facilities and programs. I recognize and acknowledge that there are certain inherent risks of physical injury<br />
to patrons of aquatic facilities, and I voluntarily agree to assume the full risk of any injuries, damages or loss, regardless of<br />
severity that my minor child/ward or I may sustain as a result of participating in any and all activities and programs connected with or<br />
associated with this Pool Pass. I further recognize and agree that lifeguards and other aquatic staff are not responsible for supervising<br />
my activities or the activities of my minor child(ren) and I agree that I am solely responsible for supervising my minor children and/or<br />
assessing whether my children are physically fit and/or adequately skilled for aquatic activities. I additionally agree to supervise any<br />
children ages 10 and under at all times.<br />
I further agree to waive and relinquish all claims I, or my minor child/ward may have (or accrue to me or my child/ward) as<br />
a result of use of the Park District’s aquatic facilities and programs against the Park District, including its officials, agents,<br />
volunteers and employees (hereinafter collectively referred as “District”).<br />
I do hereby fully release and forever discharge the District from any and all claims for injuries, damages or loss that my<br />
minor child/ward or I may have or which may accrue to me or my minor child/ward and arising out of, connected with, or in<br />
any way associated with use of the Park District’s aquatic facilities and programs.<br />
I have read and fully understand the above important information, warning of risk, assumption of risk and waiver and<br />
release of all claims. If registering via fax, my facsimile signature shall substitute for and have the same legal effect as an original form<br />
of signature.<br />
