For up to date health and safety rules and restrictions for all activities, visit this link.

Mission StatementThe Huntley Park District is committed to providing accessible parks, programs, open space and facilities for healthy activities, creative expression and learning opportunities in order to enhance the quality of life for district residents and visitors.

Huntley Park District ResidentsYou are a resident of the Huntley Park District if you pay taxes to the Huntley Park District and reside in our boundaries. A utility bill will constitute proof of residency.

Photos and VideoPhotos and video footage are periodically taken of people participating in Park District activities, attending a class or event, or using District facilities or property. Please be aware that by registering for an activity, participating in an activity, attending an event, or using District facilities or property, you authorize the District to use these photos and video footage for promotional purposes in District publications, advertising, marketing materials, brochures, event flyers, social media, and the District’s website without additional prior notice or permission and without any compensation to you. All photos and videos are property of the District.

Register EarlyPlease do not hesitate in registering for activities! Doing so may result in the class you want filling early or being cancelled due to low enrollment. As a general rule, most classes must have the minimum met 7 days before the activity starts. Please register as soon as you can to ensure your class(es) are available for you.

Cancellation of ProgramsFrom time to time activities must be cancelled due to low enrollment, change of availability from instructor, or many other reasons. In the event an activity is cancelled you will receive a full refund of any fees paid.

Waiting ListMany of our activities fill up fast and become full. In certain programs we may be able to add additional people, instructors, or times to fill the need and in other instances we simply can’t due to capacity limitations. Being placed on a waiting list is not a guarantee that you will get into any activity. If the activity you are registering for is one out of necessity (such as ET or Day Camp) and you find yourself on the waiting list, we encourage you to seek other arrangements. If you are put on a waiting list you will be contacted only if a spot becomes available.

Refunds/CancellationsGeneral activity refunds, less a service charge of $10, will be made if a request is received at least seven days before the start of the activity. After that, refunds can only be given for medical reasons, and may be prorated. When the Park District reschedules or cancels an activity due to insufficient registration, full refunds will be given. Refunds will be returned to the original method of payment or the refund may be applied as a household credit for future enrollments.

Other pre-registration fees/deposits for day camp, preschool, ET are non-refundable.

Non-Payment of FeesTransactions which require future billing such as day camp, preschool, ET, or fitness memberships may incur a $25 fee for each occurrence if payments are declined, including but not limited to checks, credit cards and debit cards. Participation in current and future activities may be suspended due to insufficient payments so please ensure the payment method you are using is accurate.

Huntley Park FoundationThe Huntley Park Foundation distributes funds to support recreational programs and park projects for the Huntley Park District. Generous financial support can buy a beautiful park bench or even a picnic shelter. Dollars are earmarked for specific projects or given to the general foundation fund. The Huntley Parks Foundation is a 501c3 corporation. For additional information please contact Thom Palmer, Executive Director, Huntley Park District at (847) 669-5683 or tpalmer@huntleyparks.org.

Code of Conduct and Participant DisciplineWhile participating in activities at the Huntley Park District we ask that all customers please follow these guidelines:

1. Show respect to all participants and staff.

2. Refrain from use of foul language.

3. Show respect for equipment and facilities.

4. Dress appropriately for activities

The Huntley Park District will use a positive approach regarding discipline. The purpose of discipline is to help a child develop self-control and learn to assume responsibility for his or her own actions. We use positive statements and reinforcements to redirect negative behavior. Should a child need more than that, a “time-out” period may be initiated. We will handle disruptive behavior as follows:

1. The parent/guardian will be informed of the specific behavior. Documentation will be given to the parent and a copy will be kept in the child’s file.

2. If the behavior continues, the instructor will inform parents a second time.

3. If there is no change in behavior, your child may be dismissed from the activity. Each situation will be evaluated on its own merit.

Disruptive behavior may be any behavior that causes, or could lead to, personal injury of your child or others. Examples include hitting, kicking, throwing things, defying or running away, or any behavior that disrupts the normal activity climate. Disruptive behavior, in the broad sense, is any behavior that takes an instructor away from the rest of the class for long periods of time. The Huntley Park District reserves the right to remove a participant whose behavior endangers the safety of themselves or others.

Lightning Warning SystemHuntley Park District has deployed a new lightning warning system this year at Stingray Bay/Deicke Park, Tomaso Sports Park, and the Public Works Soccer Fields. This system warns of actual lightning strikes within a 10-mile radius of the park. When lightning is detected, you will hear a 15-second blast and strobe lights will begin to flash on the unit at the park. When this occurs, ALL outdoor activities should cease, and all persons should seek shelter in a permanent building or vehicle immediately. Activities may only be resumed once the system has indicated the “all clear” with three – 5 second horn blasts and the strobe lights will stop flashing. There is a minimum period of 30 minutes if the system goes into alarm before it will be all clear.

Rainout LineThe Rainout Line is a platform used to communicate changes in programming due to weather. This is particularly important to outdoor sports programming, Stingray Bay activities, special events, and even Emergency Communications. You can simply search for “Rainout Line” in the app store of your mobile device. Once downloaded you can follow the directions to find Huntley Park District, setup up app alerts, and you can even setup text and/or email alerts to your favorite activities. All sports changes due to weather will be communicated here exclusively.

For those that prefer to call a weather hotline, an updated message is also generated through the system any time a status changes. You can call (847) 580-1275 to hear the current status.

To check out this great new feature please visit the Huntley Park District website and click on the small “weather” icon at the top of the page. Doing this from your mobile phone should prompt your device to download the app.
