People: Meet Brice Walsh. Brice has been
working with the Grayslake Park District
Recreation staff as a Recreation Supervisor
since 2014. Brice has a Bachelor’s degree in
Recreation from the University of
Wisconsin-Whitewater. He was raised in the
Grayslake area and feels lucky to work for such
a great company where he is able to give back
to his community. When he’s not at work you

golfing, and watching his Dallas Cowboys!
Places: The park district offers numerous reservable picnic areas and shelters for family gatherings and other events. Parks with shelters or picnic areas include: Jones Island, Mill Creek, Tooterville, Sunrise, Cambridge and 2 locations within Central Park. Each area is unique in the types of
adjacent recreational spaces they offer and can host groups of all sizes. Fees are very reasonable
and reservations begin March 1st and are on a first come, first serve basis. Please take a look at
the Picnic and Park Reservations section of this brochure or call us at

LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
The end of “winter” is upon us and we hope you’re looking forward to the spring and summer
seasons as much as we are. The district has once again lined up a huge number of great
programs for people of all ages and will continue its aggressive capital project campaign with
numerous park improvements. Welcome to another edition of our People, Places and Projects
where we highlight a staff member, recommend place(s) to go in the community and bring you
up to date on some of those projects we’re working on.
Projects: The district has once again lined up a number of capital projects for this year. They
include:
1. Meadowview Park: The district will replace the playground and renovate the basketball/tennis
area at the park this summer. The students at Meadowview School have helped us select the playground components and we’re excited to get this project completed so the kids can return next fall
to a new playground!
2. Lexington Woods Park: The district will be resurfacing the paved trail running from Shorewood
Road to Meadowview School this summer.
3. School Trail Park: The district will be resurfacing the paved trail running from Alleghany to Hillside this summer.
4. Alleghany Park: One of our bigger projects this year, the district will be running electric and
irrigation to the “top” portion of the park this year. This project will include installing irrigation within
the existing 20 acres that has already been completed and be in position to have the necessary
infrastructure to irrigate the additional 30 acres currently being developed which will be completed
in 2017.
Enjoy your spring time and join us for some fun programs and at great places within the community!

Organic seeds. With all the attention on eating healthier this class
will provide education on growing
your own vegetables from seed
thus avoiding the GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) produce and products. The students

of tomatoes, herbs and assorted
veggies in a seed starter cell that
they take home with them. The

means they’ll start producing for
you earlier in the season, granting
you a longer production period
and more produce.

FITNESS
PILATES
Age: 16 years & up
The Pilates method is a system of movement and
therapeutic exercise developed over a span of 60
years by German-born athlete and physical therapy
pioneer, Joseph H. Pilates. Utilizing the specialized
equipment he designed, the method works by toning
muscles and balancing muscular force at the joint
level. It stimulates circulation by facilitating muscular
flexibility, joint range of motion and proper musculoskeletal alignment. In addition, it promotes new
neuromuscular patterns, heightened body awareness, and more precise coordination. All these things
combine to help prevent future re-injury and reduce
and in some cases alleviate chronic pain. Each
Student should wear loose fitting clothes, bring a mat
and water bottle to each class. (TP)

CAMP POLICIES
HEALTH & SAFETY
Emergency Forms
The Park District does not require children
to have a medical examination to attend
camp. However, it is important to accurately
complete the emergency forms that are included in your parent manual. If your child
has special needs such as allergies, phobias
or medical alerts such as epilepsy or asthma,
please include this information with home and
work phone numbers on the form we provide.
These forms must be returned to your camper’s director on the first day of camp.
Reporting Safety Concerns
The Park District is committed to providing
a safe place for your recreational activities.
We encourage Grayslake residents to report
safety concerns about our facilities and parks
by calling (847) 223-7529. You can leave a
message any time of the day, seven days a
week. Because of the high volume of people
using our facilities each day, our facilities can
change daily. We want to know if you see
something that concerns you.
CAMPER DROP-OFF & PICK-UP
We are concerned about our camper’s safety
not only at camp, but also in arriving and
departing camp. It is very important that the
camp staff know the means by which each
camper will arrive and depart each day. We
ask that parents walk their child to the arrival
and departure destinations (whether this is
inside or outside) each day. In the event you
will not be available to pick up your child, only
those persons listed on the emergency release form, that you completed, would be allowed to pick up your child from the program.
A picture I.D. may be requested from you or
anyone picking up your child.

NATURE CAMP
This half day camp, specifically geared for 4-yearolds, is designed to activate your child’s creativity and
imagination by doing arts ‘n crafts, storytelling, nature
studies, playing games, theme days and social interaction with children of the same age group. Along with
all of the activities your camper will have water day one
day a week depending on the weather. Please bring a
towel to camp on your designated water day. Please
bring a snack and drink to camp each day. Camp
T-shirt will be handed out on the first day of camp. All

Nature Camp will have your camper exploring the Midwest’s natural habitat of wetlands, prairies, and woodlands. Each week we will explore a green space and learn
about the animals and plants that call that ecosystem their
home. By combining play and learning, children are able
to grow and develop at their own pace and better understand how they are a part of the larger world. This camp is
hands on fun while learning about nature and our environment. Each week camp will travel to a different park by
park district bus.

It is the time to discover and expand the opportunities that summer camp brings to your camper. This camp is
planned with your child in mind. Enjoy theme days, arts ‘n crafts, nature studies, games, sports, water day and
more! Activities are planned for both indoor and outdoor locations. Camp is a great way to meet new friends,
experience new activities, and have a ton of FUN. This camp keeps your youngster active with structured time
and unstructured time to enjoy the summer at its best. Discovering Day Camp will be venturing out twice during each session to a local Grayslake spot. More trip details will be on our camp calendars.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The Grayslake Community Park District is committed to conducting its recreation programs and activities in the
safest manner possible and holds the safety of participants in the highest possible 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 Grayslake Community Park District 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 Grayslake Community Park District 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
health insurance policy for coverage. It must be noted that the absence of health insurance coverage does not
make the Grayslake Community Park District automatically responsible for the payment of medical expenses.
Due to the difficulty and high cost of obtaining liability insurance, the agency providing liability coverage for the
District requires the execution of the following Waiver and Release. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
WAIVER AND RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS
Please read this form carefully and be aware that in registering yourself or your minor child/ward for participation in Grayslake Community Park District programs, you will be waiving and releasing all claims for injuries
you or your child/ward might sustain arising out of the above programs with the Grayslake Community Park
District.
I recognize and acknowledge that there are certain risks of physical injury to participants in Grayslake Community Park District programs and I agree to assume the full risk of any such injuries, including death, damages
or loss regardless of severity which I or my child/ward may sustain as a result of participating in any and all
activities connected or associated with such programs. When registering by fax, it is mutually understood that
the facsimile registration document (including the waiver and release of all claims) shall substitute for and have
the same legal effect as the original form.
I agree to waive and relinquish all claims I or my child/ward may have as a result of participating in the program
against the Grayslake Community Park District and other agencies and its officers, agents and employees. I
do hereby fully release and discharge the Grayslake Community Park District and its officers, agents, servants,
and employees from any and all claims from injuries including death, damages, and losses sustained by me or
my minor child/ward arising out of, connected with, or in any way associated with the activities of the programs.
I further agree to indemnify and hold harmless and defend the Grayslake Community Park District and its officers, agents, servants and employees from any and all claims resulting from injuries including death, damages
and losses sustained by me or by my child/ward arising out of, connected with, or in any way associated with
the activities of any of the programs.
In the event of any emergency, I authorize Grayslake Community Park District officials to secure from any
licensed hospital, physician and/or medical personnel any treatment deemed necessary for me or my minor
child/ward’s immediate care and agree that I will be responsible for payment of any and all medical services
rendered. I also understand that unless specifically stated in writing at the time of registration, registrants and
participants permit the taking of photos and videotapes of themselves and their children during Park District
activities for publication and use as the Park District deems necessary.
