Holiday Season!
Tribute Park at Volkening Lake
Give the gift that lasts forever! A personally engraved pathway stone at
Tribute Park is a great gift for friends, family and that special someone.
Extra Large Stone - $150
Fullstone - $100
Halfstone - $75
Commemorate a friend, loved one,
pet or cherished memory forever in
Schaumburg’s Tribute Park
The tribute areas highlight Volkening Lake’s natural beauty. Join the
District in support of this project by purchasing a memorial pathway
stone. The bricks are placed throughout walkways of the park, and are
a wonderful opportunity to give someone permanent recognition or
commemorate a significant event.
Pathway stones, available in three sizes, are permanently engraved
with personalized messages. Proceeds from the project benefit the
Schaumburg Park Foundation, a 501(c)3 organization.
The purchase of a path stone is not limited to memorials. Other uses and honors include:
• Milestone birthdays
• Anniversaries
• Graduations
• Recognize a civic group
• Marriage proposals
• Pets
Commemorative benches also are available.
The Tribute Park is part of Volkening Lake
Recreation Area, located adjacent to Schaumburg
Road and Salem Drive. It has ample parking, is
accessible and hosts a number of events and
activities throughout the year.
Happy
Holidays!

Board of Park
Commissioners
President’s Message
By Robert Schmidt, President, Board of Park Commissioners
If you’re tempted to spend those cold, snowy days lazing in front of the fire, the Schaumburg Park District has endless
opportunities to take the lazy out of winter.
Throughout this brochure, you will notice a new feature called BCUZ Buzz. The District supports your efforts to exercise and
eat healthy and we hope you like these friendly motivators. Sometimes, it’s all that’s needed to get us off the couch and onto
the elliptical machine or walking track! BCUZ Buzz was created to showcase the why behind the District’s healthy eating
programs, athletic events, sports programs, fitness centers, personal training and other activities.
Robert Schmidt
President
The new health and activity blurbs correlate with a new show planned for WSPD-TV line-up: BCUZ-TV. The new show
coming this winter will showcase the top features of everything Park District and Schaumburg related. The show will be
featured daily at 7 a.m., noon, 7 p.m. and midnight on Comcast Channel 15, WOW Channel 14 and AT&T Channel 99.
Episodes also will be online at parkfun.com.
You might be nice and toasty indoors watching new Park District cable programming, but let our healthy and active message
move you outdoors! Snowshoe rentals are available at Spring Valley beginning Dec. 1. Lace up a pair of snowshoes and
explore the snowy 135-acre nature sanctuary. It’s just one great Schaumburg CAN (Children-Activity-Nutrition) program
coming this winter. Take a peek through the guide and spot the CAN logo for more programs that guarantee a good sweat!
Sharon DiMaria
Commissioner
It wouldn’t be winter without a plethora of holiday programs. The beginning of December is packed with the poochcentric Jingle Paws on Dec. 8, a journey to Christmases past at Spring Valley Dec. 1 and 2, Santa arriving by helicopter
to Schaumburg Regional Airport Dec. 2 and the holiday hit, Twas a Saturday Night Before… on Dec. 1. Other holiday
programs include the holiday house tours and home visits from Santa.
December also is the time of gift-giving and we’re full of ideas! Give the gift that lasts forever this year – a Tribute Park
brick! Tribute Park at Volkening Lake commemorates and honors memories, special events and achievements of
Schaumburg residents and others who make a positive impact on the community. Click to give a personally engraved brick
at schaumburgparkfoundation.org. All proceeds benefit the Schaumburg Park Foundation.
The Foundation also will raise funds at the annual Holiday Shopping Bazaar Dec. 4 at the Schaumburg Corporate Center.
Hand-crafted items and household gifts will be for sale from area crafters and artists. It’s a great place to find a unique
present!
The District’s gift cards also make a great gift. The cards are available for purchase at any facility and never expire. Gift
cards can be used for registration, greens fees, food concessions and at the golf shops.
Mike Daniels
Commissioner
The post-holiday lull will allow for parents and children to bond at the Jan. 18 Mom and Son Country Western Date Night
and the Feb. 16 Dad and Daughter Sweetheart Ball. Disney’s The Little Mermaid Jr. will delight audiences at the Community
Recreation Center.
From new youth events including the Shamrock Scramble to returning teen staple The Party’s Here, the District offers plenty
of programs for children. Everyday Science will inspire interest while a winter campfire at Merkle Cabin allows children to
hike through the woods and practice pioneer skills.
If winter is getting you down, look ahead! The spring program guide will blossom on your doorstep in February packed with
spring programs and summer camps. Don’t forget that information on all District programs, classes and special events are
just a click away at parkfun.com.
David Johnson
Commissioner
The Board of Commissioners and the Park District staff wish you and your family an enjoyable, healthy and happy holiday
season. Stay warm, fit and happy!
Park Board Meetings
The Schaumburg Park District Park Board meetings are the
second Thursday of every month at 8PM at the Jerry Handlon
Administration Building, 235 E. Beech Drive, Schaumburg.

Northwest Special Recreation Association
Providing Recreation Services to Individuals with Special Needs
The Schaumburg Park District is proud to be a member of Northwest Special Recreation Association
(NWSRA). Throughout the northwest suburbs, NWSRA is the leader in providing outstanding recreational
opportunities for children and adults with disabilities. NWSRA’s team of full-time therapeutic recreation
professionals and trained part-time staff offer a multitude of year-round program offerings including sports,
camping, social programs and more. Having fun, being included, making friends, learning new things and
going new places are just a few of the benefits of NWSRA programs!
Inclusion assistance is provided by NWSRA to those individuals who wish to participate in their home park
district program. When registering, the parent of an individual with a disability should inform the Park District
(and NWSRA, if desired) of any accommodation needed in order for the individual to successfully participate
in the program. Park District staff will contact NWSRA for assistance with the accommodation.
Special Leisure Services Foundation, the fundraising arm of NWSRA, partners with public and private
corporations, foundations and individuals to support and promote outstanding recreational opportunities
for children and adults with disabilities. Throughout the year, the organization hosts a variety of fundraising
events that help support accessible transportation, general programs, inclusion opportunities, the Kevin T.
Kendrigan Memorial Scholarship program and NWSRA Lightning Athletes.
For more information on NWSRA, brochures may be picked up at Schaumburg Park District facilities or at

It is the policy of the Schaumburg Park
District to welcome all people to Park

same session that they purchased the 48 punch card. The 50% discount on additional punches does not apply to the yearly passholder rates. Participants wishing to
attend back-to-back classes can utilize the 2-for-1 option where only one punch is required for two classes back-to-back on the schedule.
Please note: In order to participate and use equipment in aqua fitness classes, all participants must pay and wear a wristband. A pool

Buzz
Wondering about the impact of aqua aerobics on the body? When immersed to the waist, the human
body bears just 50 percent of its weight. At chest level, the number reduces to around 25 to 35 percent
and with water all the way to the neck, humans only bear 10 percent of their weight. The other 90
percent is handled by the pool.

Late winter in the Sugar Bush is an exciting time of year. It’s when the maple
sap starts flowing and the air is filled with the smells of spring’s approach and
the maple syrup boil down! Bring your family to experience this time-honored
tradition by helping tap maple trees, gather sap and tend the boil down. Finally, you’ll get to enjoy a pancake ‘supper’ at the cabin with real maple syrup.
This is a unique opportunity to participate in a more intimate version of Spring
Valley’s popular Sugar Bush. Meet in the Plum Grove parking lot. Fee is per
family of four.
Additional family members or individual participants may pay at the door
($7.50/$10.75), but must call 847/985-2100 to reserve a spot.
