You are a Resident of the Park District if you live within Park District boundaries (that is, in Franklin Park, north of Grand Avenue). You are a Non-Resident if you reside outside that area. All are welcome to participate in our programs; however, Non-Residents are sometimes charged a slightly higher fee. In this brochure, “R” indicates a Resident fee, while “NR” indicates a Non-Resident fee. Resident Pass Park District Residents are required to get a Resident Pass to receive discounted rates on programs, events, passes and rentals. To get your pass, bring a valid driver’s license or state ID and a current property tax or utility bill showing your name and address to the Community Center. Children must also obtain a pass. Parents/guardians must provide a copy of each child’s birth certificate or guardian papers. The pass serves as proof of residency and is good for one year. Replacement passes are $6. Code of Conduct/Participant Guidelines Equal Access No participant shall, on the basis of race, sex, creed, national origin or disability, be denied equal access to programs, activities, services or benefits, or be limited in the exercise of any right, privilege, advantage or opportunity. The Park District staff has made every effort to prepare this brochure as accurately as possible. However, errors can occur. Circumstances may require that adjustments be made to programs, fees, schedules, etc. The Park District reserves the right to make any such adjustments. The Park District apologizes for any inconvenience these errors or adjustments may cause. Lost and Stolen Policy Personal items brought to the Park District of Franklin Park facilities are the responsibility of the individual. We recommend that items be secured in lockers when provided at facilities.

Direct family members living at the same address are also eligible to receive the discounted rate.

Registration To register for Park District programs, please submit your completed form with full payment by mail, in person or by fax at 847-455-9053. Walk-in registration is strongly encouraged for in-district residents. Behavior 1. Please use the program number indicated for your activity. Participants are expected to exhibit appropriate behavior at all times. The following guidelines have been developed to make Park District programs safe and enjoyable for all participants. Additional rules may be developed for particular programs and athletic leagues as deemed necessary by staff. Participants shall: 2. All individuals interested in any Park District of Franklin Park programs may mail in or drop off their registration. • Show respect to all participants and staff • Refrain from using foul language • Refrain from causing bodily harm to other participants and staff • Show respect for equipment, supplies and facilities 4.

Discipline A positive approach will be used regarding discipline. The Park District of Franklin Park reserves the right to dismiss a participant. Each situation will be evaluated on its own merit. Youth Participation Guidelines From time to time, the Park District has had the challenge of dealing with children registered for Park District programs whose excitement level and enthusiasm were beyond the capabilities of our staff. In the event that such a child is involved in any of these programs, the staff will notify the child’s parents that they are not capable of adequately supervising such a child. The Park District will gladly refund the prorated portion of any fees. The Park District has made every effort to hire capable staff for all programs, but there are occasions when, for the good of the entire program, the Park District must insist that parents remove unmanageable children from the program. Your cooperation as a parent will be greatly appreciated, and your understanding will allow the Park District of Franklin Park to better serve all youth. We Love Parents, but… With your child’s best interest in mind, we ask that parents do not remain in class, or bring other children into class during any of our youth programs, unless specifically approved by the instructor. This may interrupt the participant’s attention and inhibit the establishment of peer relationships. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. 26 Oops! 3. If you are a Park District Resident (live within Park District boundaries) your registration will be processed (in order received) on Monday, August 4, 2014. WALK-IN registrations may be dropped off at the Park District of Franklin Park Community Center, 9560 Franklin Avenue, during our regular office hours: Monday through Thursday, 9 am-8 pm; Friday, 9 am-5 pm; Saturday, 9 am-12 pm.
