Greetings from YOUR I can’t believe that summer is coming to a close and now all of us are planning our school and recreational programs for the upcoming fall. Fortunately, your Park District Staff has prepared a large variety of recreational programs for you to choose from. As usual, the ever-popular before and after school program “ACES” program, located at New Lenox School District #122 campuses, is in full swing and offers a valuable service to our working parents. You will also find a wide selection of programs in this catalog from bus trips, youth, adult and teen programs to holiday and special events. Your Recreation Department is always adding programs that our patrons have expressed an interest in and this fall programming is no different. Some new recreational opportunities include: • • • • • Girls Basketball League, Grades 3-8 Chair Yoga and Tap Dancing Haunted Chicago Teen Bus Trip Fantasy Football Draft & Craft Additional Times for our popular Polar Express Story Time So, please take the time to go through this catalog and choose an activity that appeals to you and your family. PRESIDENT’S LETTER New Lenox Community Park District! Let me provide an update on some of the things that are going on with the rest of your Park District. This past summer, your Park District unveiled its newest addition to its park system with the opening of Firefighters Park. This park which is located at the Lions Community Center has a lot of special features and, of course, has a firefighter theme. Look for the Official Grand Opening sometime next spring. Your Park District Staff, along with the professional services of a company specializing in park development, are putting on the final touches to your Districtwide “Comprehensive Master Plan.” Once this two-year project is completed, this plan will better serve Staff and your Elected Commissioners in identifying the Park District’s deficiencies in park and recreational programming. This Master Plan will assist in prioritizing capital projects; help in developing financial planning; and will be a huge asset in applying for state grant money once programs become available again. It is common knowledge that our elected officials down in Springfield cannot find common ground to serve the people of Illinois, but rest assured that your Park District Staff and Board of Commissioners are committed to providing the highest quality of services to all citizens within the New Lenox Community Park District area. Also, we remain committed in being good stewards of your tax dollars. The fact that your Park District has received the “Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting” for the past seven years indicates that we take this responsibility very seriously. So I invite you to take advantage of the programs that your Park District offers in this catalog and sign up for an activity that you and family are sure to enjoy. Remember…Be Active and Stay Healthy!
