REGISTRATION INFORMATION
1. Resident Registration Only
Walk-in resident registration will take place on Saturday, April
16 from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm at the Recreation Center, 536 East
Avenue, and continues thereafter during regular office hours.
Residents can only register their own family during resident
registration on April 16.
2 . Non-Resident Registration
Individuals residing outside of the Park District boundaries
may register starting at 8 a.m. Monday, April 25. Th is includes
Neighborhood Network residents.
3. Online Registration
The Park District of La Grange now offers online registration.
Come in to the Recreation Center to complete an online registration form to receive the required user name and password for
online access. Online registration runs simultaneously to walkin registration; neither procedure has priority over the other.
Online registration is available 24/7 once registration begins for
the season. A non-refundable $2 administration fee applies to
online registration transactions.
4. Summer Camps - Early Registration
Registration for summer camps for both residents and non-residents started February 1.
5. First Come First Served
All programs have a minimum and maximum enrollment and
will be filled on a first come, first served basis.
6. Program Waiting Lists
Maximum enrollments for programs ensure quality and safety
for you and your children. In the past, we made every effort to
accommodate as many residents as possible without negatively
impacting the programs. This has led to disappointment and
frustration for all involved due to problems in timing (those on
the waiting lists would find another way to spend their time),
and the difficulty related to finding qualified instructors in a
short period of time.
For the current program season, waiting lists will be unlimited.
This list will be taken to allow for dropouts and cancellations
prior to the start of a program. Our deadline for requesting refunds is 5 days before the start of class. Th is change helps eliminate last minute decisions regarding program and waiting list
status.
7. False Information/Resident Priority
Persons failing to indicate Non-Resident status, or registering
Non-Residents as Park District Residents will be dropped from
the program without refund.
8. Refunds and Cancellation
Refunds will not be issued after the first class date and must be
requested no less than 5 days before the first class meeting. A
prorated refund will be issued in cases when the Park District
receives a written certificate from a physician that a medical
condition exists that prohibits participation. The medical note
must be received no later than 14 days after the session end date.
A prorated refund may also be issued if the registrant moves
outside of the District boundaries. A $5 service charge will be
deducted from all refunds over $5, except when a medical certificate is presented in writing, or the District cancels a program.
If the Park District cancels a program, participants will have a
choice of full refund, credit or class transfer, if available.
9. Insuffici ent Funds Fee:
In the event that a program is paid for by check, and that check
is returned to the District stamped N.S.F., full payment as well
as a $20.00 penalty will be required in cash or cashiers check
before attendance in a class can continue.
10. Fee Code
The fee code used in this brochure is as follows:
(R) Resident of Park District of La Grange
(NR) Non-Resident
(NN) Neighborhood Network
11. Proof of Residency
Proof of La Grange residency is required to qualify for resident
rates for program registrations, usage passes and facility rentals. A driver’s license, state ID or utility bill is acceptable. This
policy assures the lowest fees for La Grange residents.
12. Neighborhood Network (NN)
All communities that border La Grange which include Western
Springs, La Grange Park, Countryside, Brookfield, La Grange
Highlands, and McCook will be charged only 10% more than
resident rate for all programs. Proof of residency is required.
For all co-op programs, non-residents from the co-op district
will get the resident rate.
13. Senior Discount
Seniors age 55+ receive a 10% discount for most PDLG programs for adults.
14. Proof of Age
The Park District of La Grange reserves the right to require
proof of age for any/all participants.
15. Payment/Enrollment Verification
When in doubt, call the Park District office at (708) 352-1762.
16. Assessment Description
You will be assessed a $5 registration fee when signing up for
programs. This fee is charged only once per household per season for registrations of $20 and over. If after your initial registration you decide to enroll in more programs during the same
program season, simply alert us to that fact when you register.
The assessment fee does not apply to online registrations. Collecting this fee allows the Park District to meets its costs without raising fees for every program.
17. Payment Methods
Payment methods accepted are: Visa, MasterCard, Discover,
cash and check. Driver’s license required for checks.
18. Register Early!
Classes subject to cancellation if they do not meet minimum
enrollments a week before class starts, unless otherwise noted.
Why are there initials next to the programs (LG-Laura Gallagher, DF-Diana Faught, KM-Kevin Miller)?
They represent the staff member responsible for that program. This will help you connect with the right person to answer
your questions.

Program Philosophy
Learning Ladders has been designed to meet the physical, social,
intellectual, and creative needs of children ages 2 1/2 to 5. It is
based on the premise that children learn through play. Play serves
as a “child’s work”, a time when new discoveries and friendships
dships
are made. Through play, children learn to communicate with
ith
words, express feelings, explore, create, problem solve,
make decisions, and much, much more.
In addition to creative free play there will be a balance
of teacher directed group activities as well. Introduction and exposure to letters, numbers, colors, shapes, and
other beginning concepts occurs. Our teaching staff creates and implements lesson plans based on Illinois Early
Learning Standards.

EARLY CHILDHOOD
Early Childhood Program Requirements
• Children must be the correct age by the first day the program meets, unless otherwise specified. In order to provide your child with the
best possible recreational and/or learning experience, all of our programs are planned according to the ages listed in our brochure.
• Classes are for child attending only, except for classes with an adult. Parents should not remain in the classroom or gymnasium after dropping off their child. This is in the child’s best interest, as continual interruptions tend to affect participant’s attention span and inhibit the
establishment of peer relationships.
• Please do not bring food to any class, unless previously arranged.
• For your children’s safety, all children enrolled in preschool age programs must be picked up from the specific classroom or program site
by their parents or designated guardian. No child will be released from the classroom to anyone other than these individuals.
• A mandatory sign in and sign out procedure for all participants is required for all Park District programs.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Important Information
The Park District of La Grange is committed to conducting its
recreation programs and activities in the safest manner possible and
holds the safety of participants in the highest regard. Participants and
parents registering their child in recreation programs must recognize,
however, that there is an inherent risk of injury when choosing to
participate in recreation activities.
The Park District of La Grange continually strives to reduce such
risks and insists that all participants follow safety rules and instructions which have been designed to protect the participant’s safety.
Please recognize that the Park District of La Grange does not carry
medical accident insurance for injuries sustained in its programs.
The cost of such would make program fees prohibitive; therefore,
each person registering themselves or a family member for a recreation program/activity should review their own medical insurance
policy for coverage. It must also be noted that the absence of medical
insurance coverage does not make the Park District of La Grange
automatically responsible for the payment of medical expenses.
The Park District of La Grange requires that all program participants
or legal guardians sign a Liability Waiver and Release form at the
time of registration. This form must be signed prior to participation
in any Park District program. Your cooperation and understanding is
greatly appreciated.

The Financial Assistance Policy of the Park District of La Grange
is established to provide a fair and equitable system through which
District residents may take part in recreation programs when they are
unable to pay the required fees.
Partial program fee waivers may be granted for Park District of La
Grange residents for certain programs. Any family who would like
to see if they are eligible for a scholarship may obtain an application
from the Park District of La Grange Administration Office at 536
East Avenue, La Grange, IL 60525.
CO-OP Programming
If the graphic symbol T appears next to a program title, it is a COOP, and resident rates apply for all agencies indicated. All participating agencies must achieve minimum enrollment for a class to be held.
There are three reasons why park districts and recreation departments
typically offer programs in cooperation with another agency. Reason
#1 is because individually each agency does not have the population
base to support a program. Reason #2 is that one of the agencies does
not have the facility to offer a program. Reason #3 is that both agencies can increase the variety of programs offered to their residents.
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
The Park District of La Grange is committed to accessibility for individuals with disabilities and strives to provide equal, integrated participation in all programs, activities and services. The Park District’s
policy is to reasonably accommodate all qualified program applicants
in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). We
welcome the questions, comments and concerns of interested community members regarding District ADA compliance.
To arrange for auxiliary aids or accommodations enabling individuals
with disabilities to participate in Park District public meetings, or to
request publications in a special format (such as audiocassette or large
print), contact the Superintendent of Recreation by calling (708) 3521762 or by writing to 536 East Avenue, La Grange, IL 60525.
Inclusive Recreation Programs
In a continuing effort to meet the needs of residents with special
needs, SEASPAR and the Park District of La Grange provide inclusive recreation services. This means that individuals with disabilities
participate in programs offered by the Park District.
This inclusive recreation environment provides residents with disabilities greater choices for their leisure time and allows all residents
to learn about one another as they participate together.

interests so that we can provide the support necessary for successful inclusion. By communicating your needs, the Park District and
