Speaking of school, the Wheeling Park District is very proud of our partnerships with both District 21 and District 214.

If you aren’t feeling that jive, dress as a private detective to help solve the crime, just don’t frame the wrong guy!

INCLUSIVE RECREATION PROGRAMS In a continuing effort to accommodate the needs of residents with special needs, NWSRA and the Wheeling Park District provide inclusive recreation services. This means that individuals with disabilities are able to participate in programs offered by the Park District. Tell us your special needs by communicating on the registration form, and together the Wheeling Park District and NWSRA will provide the support necessary for success.

Show respect to all guests and staff. 2. Refrain from using foul or obscene language. 3. Refrain from causing bodily harm to others. 4. Show respect for equipment, supplies, and facility. 5. Children under age 10 must be supervised by an adult, age 17 years or older, at all times at all recreation facilities. THORGUARD LIGHTNING PREDICTION & WARNING SYSTEM By measuring the amount of electrical charge in the atmosphere, Thorguard predicts with a high degree of certainty the probability of a lightning strike within a covered area. This system warns guests and staff with a horn and strobe system when a lightning strike hazard is present. Areas served by Thorguard include Heritage Park, Family Aquatic Center, CRC, and all adjacent areas and neighborhoods. The system is intended to warn guests and staff of probable lightning hazards in the area so lightning-related injuries and deaths can be avoided. Since Thorguard is a lightning prediction system, it is possible for the warning system to be activated even when weather conditions do not seem to indicate lightning is present. Be assured that these warnings are accurate and must be followed to ensure personal safety. Two distinct signals sent out by Thorguard: RED ALERT External warning horns blare for 15 seconds and strobe lights begin to blink. This signifies a lightning hazard in the area. All outdoor recreation activity should be suspended and guests and staff should seek appropriate shelter, preferably indoors. ALL CLEAR External warning horns give three consecutive blasts lasting 3-5 seconds each. This means the lightning hazard has left the area and it is safe to resume normal activities. Chevy Chase is protected under the WeatherBug lightning detection system. LOCKER ROOMS The locker room is an amenity available for use by all CRC participants. The purpose is for storage of personal belongings while using the facility. Each participant needs to furnish his/her own lock. Overnight storage is available. Private locker rooms are available on a rental basis. For more information see the Fitness section of this Program Guide. The Wheeling Park District is not responsible for lost and/or stolen property. Please do not store valuables in lockers. Wallet lockers are available in the Arctic Splash, gymnasium, and Fitness Center. IMAGE RECORDING DEVICES The use of any image recording devices, including video recorders, cameras, and phone cameras, is strictly prohibited in all Wheeling Park District facility locker rooms, washrooms, and shower areas. Please report any violations immediately to facility management. VANDALISM The Wheeling Park District has experienced a tremendous amount of vandalism. This vandalism in our community has included acts of arson, destruction of playground equipment and landscaping materials, destruction of bathroom fixtures, stolen materials, and graffiti, as well as the destruction of the waterfall feature at Husky Park. Vandalism affects residents and other guests when bathrooms are closed, playground equipment is under repair, and amenities are not available for use. Vandalism is costly to repair and results in higher insurance costs. In order to ensure the safest parks and facilities possible, we need your help. We ask that when you see or hear about vandalism or something that may be unsafe, such as broken playground equipment, or anything else that you feel may be hazardous, please call 847-465-3333 or complete the online Report a Problem form under the Parks and Facilities tab. REWARD PROGRAM Help the Wheeling Park District stop vandalism in your neighborhood park. Call us with information about the person or persons who vandalize any Wheeling Park District property. This would include the destruction of any property such as vehicles, playground equipment, or landscape materials, the theft of any equipment or materials, any act of arson, and any act of graffiti. If your information leads to arrest, case resolution and/or restitution, you will be given a reward from $500 to $5000. Your name will be kept confidential.
