My husband and I have four active kids and at one point or another our entire family has been

involved in Carol Stream Park District activities and volunteering has just always been second nature. I grew up with parents that volunteered and I look at volunteering as a part of being a parent. I volunteer at every school and sport our kids are involved in and at our church. People may think I’m a giver, but the truth is I’m the one receiving the gift by volunteering. I have made life long friends through volunteering and had a lot of fun along the way.

Swim LessonsThe Bartlett Park District’s swim lesson program is for swimmers of all ages. On the first day of lessons parents will receive a parent manual which explains each of the levels in depth. Due to the limited amount of space on the pool deck, parents will be asked to sit in the bleachers or viewing area. For those who have already been in our swim lesson program, please sign your child up for lessons according to a previous swim lesson report card.

Before registering for a swim lesson, review your child’s previous lesson history and age limitations of class. Classes fill quickly and transferring from one level to another is not always possible. If you have questions, please ask at the Registration Desk. Registration will close three days prior to the start of the class. No refunds or make-ups will be given for classes missed or forgotten. The park district reserves the right to combine class levels if deemed appropriate. What to bring• Swim suit already on child

• Towel

• Report Card from previous swim lessons at Coral Cove or Bartlett Park District

What not to bring• Swimming aids such as lifejackets, water wings or

flippers

• Snorkel masks that cover the nose

On the first day…Please arrive 15 minutes early for first day check-in. Guardians may either wait for their swimmers in the bleachers or the viewing room. Please stay for the entire swimmer’s class, in case of emergency where consent is required.

The park district will make reasonable accommodations in recreation programs to enable participation by an individual with a disability that meets essential eligibility requirements for that leisure program and facilities. If you have questions or believe you have been unfairly discriminated against by the park district, please call (630) 784-6100.

Earth Flag Awarded to Park DistrictThe Carol Stream Park District was awarded the Earth Flag in September in recognition of its earth-friendly practices.

To achieve the Earth Flag certification the park district had to pass an environmental audit by the SCARCE organization and implement several new green initiatives. These included adding over 100 new recycling bins to the parks, creating new policies to reduce paper, energy and fuel use, and increasing the number of nature and green-based activities for residents.

My husband and I have four active kids and at one point or another our entire family has been

involved in Carol Stream Park District activities and volunteering has just always been second nature. I grew up with parents that volunteered and I look at volunteering as a part of being a parent. I volunteer at every school and sport our kids are involved in and at our church. People may think I’m a giver, but the truth is I’m the one receiving the gift by volunteering. I have made life long friends through volunteering and had a lot of fun along the way.
