Hello Crestwood Residents,
We are very excited to continue to be open
and serving our community. We are following
the CDC guidelines and are reminding our
guests to social distance and to wear a mask.
We are happy to announce that our first-ever
Crestwood Crush Golf outing that was held
on Sept. 26th at The Meadows Golf Club in
Blue Island was a great success!
We had a great start to our first-ever
Crestwood Wiffle Ball league. The league,
which plays on Monday Nights through
Oct. 19th, has 11 teams. All games are being
played at Walker Park on our T-ball fields.
This introductory league will lead to a larger
summer league in 2021.
The T-ball league has also extended into a
six-week fall season featuring five teams that
play on Wednesday and Saturday. We are
happy to have our parks in use following CDC
guidelines to ensure safe play for all.
The fall session of swim lessons began the
week of Sept. 21st and goes through October.
Be on the lookout and sign up your kids.
The pool is open on an hourly basis for lap
swim to all members. All you have to do is
reach out to us at the CRWC for a lap swim
time.
We have many programs starting in October
featuring an all ages indoor Bean Bag League
starting Oct. 27th.
We will announce more leagues as the CDC
guidelines start to ease up, hopefully. We will
also bring back our popular Bags and Brews
event this winter.
Check out our Facebook page at facebook.
com/crwc1 to see all of our exciting new
programs.
We are happy to announce that we will be
hosting our annual Trunk or Treat event on
Saturday Oct. 24th from 12:00-3:00pm. We
will be limiting our numbers by the hour to
follow restrictions. Please call to reserve your
space as they will fill up fast.
We still have youth practices daily at the
CRWC and baseball on the weekends at
Playfield Park. We will do our very best to
keep our community on the move during
these trying times.
Be on the lookout for our late fall/winter
sport registration which will include swim
lessons, basketball for all ages, floor hockey
and indoor soccer. All programs are subject
to state and CDC guidelines.

Marching Band Returns to Practice Field
As District 218 plans its gradual return to in-person instruction, Shepard High School athletic teams and
extracurricular activities like the marching band have resumed practice.
The District returns with freshman days on Oct. 15 and 16. Half of Shepard 9th graders will attend each day, which
mirrors the arrangement when all students return to school on Oct. 19.
In his letter to parents announcing the start of in-person instruction, Superintendent Dr. Ty Harting reminded
them that the plan can change at any time.
“This is all predicated, of course, on conditions remaining stable or improving over the next few weeks,” he wrote.
The sight and sound of the Marching Astros playing again provided music for all ears.

instruction. (Right Photo) Members of the pit crew of the Shepard High School marching band rehearse on the football
