Adult Activity GuideSign up for adult sports and programs! We have an activity guide just for adults. Want a copy? Call us at (630) 784-6100 and we’ll mail you one. You can also shop online at csparks.org.

Grow a Monarch safe havenMonarch butterflies are famous for their annual mass-migration, but they need safe havens to live in during the summer months too. Creating a Monarch waystation in your back yard is simple to do using native plants. See the adult activity guide for our new Monarch Waystation program.

Use a gas grillGrilling with propane is a much cleaner and greener way to cook than using charcoal.Briquettes give off far more Volotile Organic Compounds (VOCs), which are pollutants.

Scent out skeetersFor toxic-free methods of keeping mosquitos at bay, try using citronella candles and citronella based repellents. Planting rosemary and using garlic based repellents can also be effective.

Registration Information

Volunteering at the Park District isn’t a job, nor a chore, it’s an experience! We have lots of fun

and the kids are amazing. You can meet new people and they are always friendly and welcoming. Even after graduation, I plan to continue volunteering here in Carol Stream. I would like to encourage other high school students to come and help out at the Park District, your help is always needed and appreciated!

- Haley Cusimano

Haley, a Senior at Glenbard West High School, recently moved to Carol Stream from Chicago, where she completed 62 hours volunteering for the Chicago Park District as a junior camp counselor. Haley began volunteering with the Carol Stream Park District in January 2010.

In the last few months, she has assisted our staff with special events including: Winter in the Park, Daddy Daughter Dance, Mother-Daughter Doll Tea Party, kids egg hunt, Annie Jr., theatre production, the Preschool Fun Fair and the Bunny Bash. We appreciate her enthusiastic spirit and her willingness to pitch in with whatever the task is that needs to be accomplished. She has quickly become a familiar face around the park district.

Special RecreationThe benefits of recreation extend far beyond the soccer field or the dance floor. The skills that are learned and practiced in leisure provide a tremendous foundation for life.

REGISTRATION/BROCHURE WAIVER & RELEASE IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The Carol Stream Park District is committed to conducting its recreation programs and activities in a safe manner and holds the safety of participants in high regard. The Carol Stream Park District continually strives to reduce such risks and insists that all participants follow safety rules and instructions that are designed to protect the participants’ safety. However, participants and parents/guardians of minors registering for the above listed programs/activities must recognize that there is an inherent risk of injury when choosing to participate in recreational activities/programs. You are solely responsible for determining if you or your minor child/ward are physically fit and/or skilled for the activities contemplated by this agreement. It is always advisable, especially if the participant is pregnant, disabled in any way or recently suffered an illness, injury or impairment, to consult a physician before undertaking any physical activity.

WARNING OF RISK

Recreational activities are intended to challenge and engage the physical, mental and emotional resources of each participant. Despite careful and proper preparation, instruction, medical advice, conditioning and equipment, there is still a risk of serious injury when participating in any recreational activity. Understandably, not all hazards and dangers can be foreseen. Depending on the particular activity, participants must understand that certain risks, dangers and injuries due to inclement weather, slip and falls, poor skill level or conditioning, carelessness, horseplay, unsportsmanlike conduct, premises defects, inadequate or defective equipment, inadequate supervision, instruction or officiating, and all other circumstances inherent to indoor and outdoor recreational activities exist. In this regard, it must be recognized that it is impossible for the Carol Stream Park District to guarantee absolute safety.

I recognize and acknowledge that there are certain risks of physical injury to participants in these programs, and I voluntarily agree to assume the full risk of any and all injuries, damages or loss, regardless of severity, that my minor child/ward or I may sustain as a result of said participation. 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 a result of participating in these programs against the Carol Stream Park District, including its officials, agents, volunteers and employees.

Grow a Monarch safe havenMonarch butterflies are famous for their annual mass-migration, but they need safe havens to live in during the summer months too. Creating a Monarch waystation in your back yard is simple to do using native plants. See the adult activity guide for our new Monarch Waystation program.

Use a gas grillGrilling with propane is a much cleaner and greener way to cook than using charcoal.Briquettes give off far more Volotile Organic Compounds (VOCs), which are pollutants.

Scent out skeetersFor toxic-free methods of keeping mosquitos at bay, try using citronella candles and citronella based repellents. Planting rosemary and using garlic based repellents can also be effective.

Volunteering at the Park District isn’t a job, nor a chore, it’s an experience! We have lots of fun

and the kids are amazing. You can meet new people and they are always friendly and welcoming. Even after graduation, I plan to continue volunteering here in Carol Stream. I would like to encourage other high school students to come and help out at the Park District, your help is always needed and appreciated!

- Haley Cusimano

Haley, a Senior at Glenbard West High School, recently moved to Carol Stream from Chicago, where she completed 62 hours volunteering for the Chicago Park District as a junior camp counselor. Haley began volunteering with the Carol Stream Park District in January 2010.

In the last few months, she has assisted our staff with special events including: Winter in the Park, Daddy Daughter Dance, Mother-Daughter Doll Tea Party, kids egg hunt, Annie Jr., theatre production, the Preschool Fun Fair and the Bunny Bash. We appreciate her enthusiastic spirit and her willingness to pitch in with whatever the task is that needs to be accomplished. She has quickly become a familiar face around the park district.
