Park Board<br />

DEAR VERNON HILLS RESIDENTS,<br />

It’s the time of year for making New Year’s Resolutions. Whether yours is to explore the outdoors, commit to get fit, or<br />

investigate a new hobby, the Park District is your place to make it happen in <strong>2018</strong>!<br />

Have you visited Lakeview Fitness? This is a great place to start those resolutions. I invite you to spend a week at the facility;<br />

swim and splash in the pool, warm up from the winter’s chill in the sauna, steam room, or hot tub, and take a fitness class<br />

too. Tear out the Free Week Fitness Pass in this program guide and just go! After your trial week, you will want to keep<br />

going! Purchase a new annual membership January 1-8, <strong>2018</strong>, and receive a $50 Park District Gift Card! Lakeview Fitness is<br />

celebrating its 5-year anniversary with a free community day on January 6th. There will be mini-classes, games, fun in the<br />

pool, and prizes for all to enjoy.<br />

The Sullivan Community Center’s construction project is complete! The final stage was the addition of landscaping this past<br />

fall. Soon, the construction trucks will be back in the spring beginning a new project, the Hawthorn District 73 Kindergarten<br />

Center. The Kindergarten Center will be located between the Aspen Drive Library and the Sullivan Community Center, with<br />

a tunneled access directly to the Sullivan Center. A preliminary proposal can be found on page 4 and more information is<br />

available on District’s 73 website at www.hawthorn73.org.<br />

Don’t let the winter weather keep your family indoors! The Century Park ice rinks and sled hill will be lit daily until 9 pm for<br />

evening fun, weather permitting! The pavilion’s restrooms are open daily and the remainder of the pavilion will be open<br />

weekends for skate rentals and concessions. An afternoon of sledding, skating, or using the miles of pathways through our<br />

parks for hiking, cross country skiing, or just a leisurely walk is the perfect activity for a winter day, so come out and enjoy!<br />

Our website is updated daily for skating and sledding conditions.<br />

The Park District has many special events planned this winter beginning with a New Year’s Eve Family Party on December<br />

31st. Music, open gym, pizza, an ice cream sundae bar, and a countdown to the New Year (at 6 pm)! The fun continues for<br />

families at <strong>Winter</strong> Fest on January 13th. Families will enjoy a live ice sculpting show, dog sled demonstrations, roasting<br />

marshmallows, as well as ice skating and sledding. Just the Two of Us, a special evening of dancing for dads and daughters,<br />

is February 9th, and our 5th Annual Craft Beer Tasting event follows on March 3rd! Listen to live music while Chicago area<br />

breweries pour samples of their ales, lagers, and stouts.<br />

a wonderful parntership experience this year. After<br />

my initial meeting, a proprosal was put together that<br />

run. At each event, I was informed of where I needed<br />

Special Recreation Association of Lake County<br />

The Vernon Hills Park District is a cooperative member agency of the Special Recreation Association of<br />

Central Lake County. SRACLC provides community based therapeutic recreation programs to people of<br />

all ages with disabilities or special needs.<br />

SRACLC is a cooperative effort of the Grayslake, Vernon Hills, and Mundelein Park Districts, and the<br />

Villages of Hawthorn Woods, Lake Zurich, Libertyville, and Lincolnshire. Individuals residing within the<br />

boundaries of the Member Agencies are considered “residents” of SRACLC and may utilize the services.<br />

SRACLC offers more than 500 weekly programs, special events, and camps during the year. SRACLC also<br />

recognizes that some people with disabilities prefer to participate in recreation programs within their<br />

own Park District or Recreation Department. SRACLC can help you with this opportunity by providing<br />

an extra staff, if deemed necessary, behavior management support, disability awareness training, and<br />

other adaptive services necessary for safe and successful participation.<br />

<strong>2018</strong> - 2019 School Year<br />

It is our goal to provide a safe and nurturing learning environment where each child is recognized and<br />

appreciated. Our belief is that children learn best through creative play and exploration. We want to help you<br />

build upon your child’s love of learning.<br />

Our program will prepare your child for their kindergarten experience through developmentally appropriate<br />

activities. Our highly experienced staff will assist your children in developing a sense of independence and<br />

confidence as they develop social relationships with other children. Daily instruction is provided to foster your child’s<br />

literary, cognitive, and fine and gross motor skills.<br />

We offer the best value for your money! A new, secure, beautiful facility opened in January, 2017, with highly-qualified staff<br />

dedicated to teaching our young students! Our large classrooms are equipped with child-sized bathrooms and all new classroom<br />

furnishings. We have an expanded outdoor playground too! Consider our school-year preschool programs for 2-5 year olds for a consistent,<br />

developmentally appropriate educational program.<br />

In addition, we offer both before and after supplemental preschool programs to complement your child’s learning experience all year round.<br />

FAQs<br />

Do preschoolers need to be potty trained?<br />

Children in 2 Year Old Preschool do not need to be potty<br />

trained, however instructors are not responsible for<br />

changing diapers. Children in 3 and 4 Year Old Preschool<br />

must be potty trained.<br />

What is your discipline policy?<br />

We use a brief time-out in the classroom. Our goal in using<br />

this technique is to remove a child from the situation long<br />

enough to allow him/her to regain control of him/herself.<br />

Positive redirection is another core discipline procedure.<br />

Appropriate boundaries and rules for behavior are<br />

established early in the school year.<br />

Can I observe a class in session?<br />

Yes! Call Gail Herrmann at (847) 996-6808 to set up<br />

an appointment.<br />

Wicked Science<br />

Do you love how rockets blast into space or wonder what it<br />

would be like to parachute gracefully down to earth? We will<br />

build and test rockets, airplanes, hover crafts, and catapults to<br />

discover what makes a successful flight. Building them is only<br />

half the fun, launching them is better! You’ll be part of a demo<br />

with model rockets as we find out the physics behind the forces<br />

of flight. Find out what the latest missions are from NASA and<br />

experiments that are done on the International Space Station<br />

and you will build your own rover and decide which tools are<br />

best to bring along your exploration among the planets.<br />

Select The<br />

Right Class<br />

Before Class<br />

Review the general descriptions. Choose<br />

the first class that lists a skill that your child has not yet<br />

mastered.<br />

First Day of Class<br />

Children’s skills will be assessed on the first day of class to ensure<br />

that they are placed in the proper level. Adjustments will be made<br />

if necessary. Swimming requires motor coordination and practice to<br />

become proficient.<br />

The goal of the Park District’s swim program is to create a life-long interest in<br />

aquatics activities, promote a healthy lifestyle, and improve a child’s safety in<br />

the water. Lessons follow the American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim guidelines.<br />

Taught by instructors who are certified lifeguards, our lessons feature<br />

progressive swimming instruction and practice of water safety skills. Upon<br />

successful completion of each level, swimmers will receive an American Red<br />

Cross certificate.<br />

Registration Dates (R/NR)<br />

<strong>Winter</strong> I: December 5 / December 12<br />

Keep in Mind<br />

It is not uncommon to spend more than one session in a particular<br />

level. This is especially true with levels 2, 3 and 4. Therefore, do not<br />

expect your child to automatically advance to the next level at the end<br />

of a session.<br />

the different courses or swim class policies, contact Robert Wood,<br />

General Information<br />

Century Park<br />

Vernon Hills Police<br />

Through a cooperative agreement with the Village of Vernon Hills, all parks and park facilities<br />

are policed by the Vernon Hills Police Department. Police are radio dispatched and may be<br />

summoned by calling (847) 362-4449.<br />

Speakers Bureau<br />

Local groups are encouraged to invite our staff to your meetings to speak about Park District<br />

happenings. Contact Cheryl Buhmann at (847) 996-6933 or cherylb@vhparkdistrict.org.<br />

Americans With Disabilities<br />

The Vernon Hills Park District will comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA), which<br />

prohibits discrimination in the provision of programs, services, or activities to individuals with<br />

disabilities. We invite any participant with a special need to contact our staff or our SRA staff,<br />

upon registration, so that a smooth inclusion can occur. If you have any questions regarding the<br />

Park District’s ADA policy, or believe you have been unfairly discriminated against in the provision<br />

of programs, services, or activities of the Vernon Hills Park District, please contact the District<br />

ADA Compliance Officer, Tom Ritter by mail at 635 N. Aspen Drive, Vernon Hills, IL 60061 or by<br />

telephone at 847-996-6802. For the deaf or hearing-impaired, call the Illinois Relay Center voice<br />

only operator at (800) 526-0857.<br />

Food Allergy Policy<br />

The Park District will attempt to accommodate each program participant who has a food allergy<br />

in order to provide the safest learning environment possible. A Food Allergy Action Plan will<br />

be created by the District staff and parents and will identify operational practices for parents,<br />

teachers, and children to follow. For a copy of the Food Allergy Policy, contact Tom Ritter,<br />

Superintendent of Recreation, at (847) 996-6802.<br />

No Smoking Policy<br />

In addition to the Smoke Free Illinois Act, the entire Park District which includes all facilities,<br />

buildings, parks, streets, paths, open space and all waters, is designated as tobacco free.<br />

Affiliations<br />

Age Qualification<br />

The District establishes appropriate age qualifications for each of its programs. Only the program<br />

supervisor is authorized to make exceptions to these age ranges. Consideration will only be<br />

given once all age-appropriate participants have had an opportunity to register.<br />

Notary Public Services<br />

Notary public services are available at the Sullivan Community Center. Please remember that<br />

documents must be signed in the presence of the Notary Public.<br />

Resident/Non-Resident (NR) Fees<br />

Vernon Hills residents significantly contribute to the operating budget of the Park District by<br />

paying property taxes. Everyone who resides within the boundaries of the Park District are<br />

eligible to receive resident discounted rates. Once per year, each Vernon Hills household is<br />

required to show proof of residency in order to qualify for resident rates. Families living within<br />

Hawthorn School District #73 are also eligible to receive resident discounted rates for programs.<br />

The only exceptions are facility rentals and daily admission to the Family Aquatic Center. In<br />

addition, District 73 residents must wait until the non-resident registration dates to register<br />

for programs. Non-resident fees are the second fees shown in program descriptions. These<br />

rates are not discounted and are necessary in order to ensure that non-resident participants<br />

contribute to the overall financing of the park system on an equitable basis with residents.<br />

Senior Citizen Discount<br />

Senior discounts are available for individual passes and membership to our Fitness Center for<br />

residents aged 62 & older. For all other programs and the Family Aquatic Center, a 20% discount<br />

will be applied.<br />

Payment Policy<br />

Households with an unpaid balance will not be allowed to register for any Vernon Hills Park<br />

District programs, activities, memberships, or rentals until the balance is paid in full. For<br />

assistance with an unpaid balance contact the Business Operations Manager at (847) 996-6803.<br />

NSF Policy<br />

A $25 service charge will be assessed on all checks returned due to non-sufficient funds (NSF).<br />

Photo & Video Policy<br />

On occasion, the District staff or contractors may take pictures or video footage of participants<br />

in our programs, or of people in the District’s parks. These pictures may be used for the Park<br />

District’s website, brochures, pamphlets, videos, flyers, social media, or for media promotion.<br />

Residents are encouraged to submit photos for the Park District to use in its informational<br />

materials. To submit a photo, email Cassidy Reinhard, Marketing Coordinator, at<br />

cassidyr@vhparkdistrict.org.<br />

Vandalism<br />

Each year, vandalism costs the Park District thousands of dollars. Higher costs of maintenance,<br />

repair and clean up of park areas can be avoided only with your help. Should you see vandalism<br />

occurring, please call the Vernon Hills Police at (847) 362-4449.<br />

Discipline<br />

A positive approach is used regarding discipline. Staff periodically reviews rules with<br />

participants during programs. If inappropriate or unacceptable behavior occurs, prompt<br />

resolution will be sought and the Behavior Code of Conduct will be used as a guideline. The Park<br />

District reserves the right to remove a participant whose actions endanger the safety of himself<br />

or others.<br />

the start of the program and a full refund is issued.<br />

Save a class! Register early!<br />

Within 5 days of a class beginning, a decision is made whether that<br />

class will run or not. All classes must have a minimum number of<br />

participants registered at this time or it will be canceled. Don’t let a<br />

good class get canceled!<br />
