Another summer is upon us and it’s again time to get out and enjoy all the outdoor offerings of the community as
Grayslake is a wonderful place to bike, walk, jog and swim. Welcome to another edition of People, Places and
Projects where we usually highlight a staff member, recommend a specific park to visit and update you on our current projects. Instead of that content this time, I’d like to dedicate this page to our I Love Learning Preschool program and our awesome teachers. We have the pleasure of helping many 3 and 4 year old children come through
our I Love Learning Preschool program every year and I know the number of people who either return or start
with us are lured by our strong reputation of offering enriching experiences for the children. One major aspect of
the program’s success and its strong reputation is our group of teachers. I continually hear that our teachers are
excellent educators and role models as well as just being great people. Please meet our 3 year old preschool
teachers below.
left to right, front row: Laurie Anderson, Karen Larson, Sharon Fenn. Back Row: Amy Netz, Nicole Krebs, Sam Wilson, Annie Caliendo
Laurie Anderson: Although being new to the Park District, I have taught preschool for the past three years and have been
in the education field for almost 10 years. I enjoy reading, being with family and friends, and photography. My husband and I
have four children ranging in ages from 9 to 13 years. We love spending time together as a family, which often involves heading
to one of their sporting events. Soccer, Basketball, Cross Country and Track are their current passions. It is wonderful for me
to see children feel successful wherever they are, be it on the soccer field or in the classroom!
LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
Karen Larson: My husband and I both grew up in Elmhurst, IL and moved to Grayslake in 1999. Much of our time is spent
with our children on the baseball fields or fishing on Lake Michigan. I enjoy exercising, reading and spending time with my family.
Sharon Fenn: My family recently moved back to Grayslake after living in Washington, IL for the past 7 years. I was fortunate
to get my old job back at GLPD teaching a variety of classes. I grew up in Mt. Prospect, IL and received my degree at Northern
Illinois University. I have two fabulous children. My husband Bill and I enjoy working on our house and traveling. I love photography and finding treasures to repurpose. I love being around children and looking at the world through their eyes.

husband and I moved to Illinois in 1992, and have lived in Grayslake since 1999. I have two boys, Trevor and Nicholas. I also
have a Chihuahua named Monty. In my spare time I enjoy watching my son in marching band at Rams football games. I also
attend basketball games, Boy Scout events and tennis matches for my boys. I am a parent volunteer at my children’s schools
and I’m involved in the parent resource group. I enjoy hanging out with my family, friends, gardening, cooking, traveling and
working out.
Nicole Krebs: I’ve been with the Grayslake Park District since 2003. I have three children, who all went through the Grayslake
Park District’s I Love Learning Preschool program. My husband and I met at Northern Illinois University in 1990, and moved to
Grayslake in 1994 where we’ve lived ever since. I love to read, relax and spend time with my family and friends.
Sandra Wilson: Better known as Mrs. Sam, I’ve been with the Park District since 1997 and have taught many Recreation and
Sports programs for all age groups. My husband and I moved to IL in 1992 and have two boys. I am an avid outdoors person.
I enjoy gardening, hiking, kayaking and swimming.
Annie Caliendo: I’ve been with the Grayslake Park District since 2010. My husband Rob and I moved to Grayslake in 1996
from Oak Park where we lived for ten years. I grew up in Northern Nevada in the oldest town in the state, Genoa. We have two
daughters, Zoe and Hope. They are both graduates of I Love Learning Preschool! I love to garden, take cross-country car trips

deserve quality at all times. We are confident that our
leisure programs provide high quality so we are backing it with a policy called “Satisfaction Guarantee”. Our

promise is that you will be satisfied with the quality of
our leisure programs in which you participate or you will
receive a full refund of fees you have paid for that program. The policy and refund process is simple. All we
request is that you must attend at least one class and if
you are not satisfied with the quality of our instruction,
that you take a brief moment of your time to come in
and complete and return our “Satisfaction Guarantee”
refund form prior to the third class. Your input on the
refund form is very valuable as it will allow us to focus
on where improvement is needed.
The Satisfaction Guarantee refund forms are available at the Recreation Center. Upon receiving your

refund of your paid fees provided YOU ONLY ATTENDED THE FIRST CLASS. Attending two or more classes,
all refunds will be pro-rated as to how many classes
have been held in the program session.

government which includes park districts as of January
26, 1992. Individuals with concerns or questions should
contact the Park District at 223-7529.

IN LOVING MEMORY
In Loving Memory of
Ray Bandemer
Long time Park District employee and coach, Ray
Bandemer, passed away suddenly on Monday, March
28th. Ray was hired in January of 2002 and has been
an integral member of our Park District team for over 14
years. If you have ever been a part of any Park District
sports program, open gym, special event or played on
one of the many sports fields in the parks in the past 14
years, you have probably come in contact with Ray. He
will be remembered for his hard work, dedication, his
caring attitude, his cheerful demeanor and his goofy sense of humor. Ray’s willingness to do
whatever was necessary to make the park district programs the best they could be, is not a
skill you can teach an employee. It was Ray’s passion and his love for this community that
showed in everything that he did.
The Park District is very thankful to have had the opportunity to work alongside Ray for so
many years. He touched many lives throughout Grayslake and made a huge impact in our
community. Ray will be sorely missed by many but he will always remain a special member
of our Park District family.
Here are just some of the over 100+ comments that were left on our Facebook page
when word got out about Ray’s passing. These truly show the kind of person Ray
was and the difference he made in our community.
“He was everywhere, all the time – a staple of our community!”
“Truly one of the good guys”
“He was a fixture – for many years he has always been a part of our weekends and game night. RIP”
“Very Sad. Always enjoyed seeing Ray out at the fields. He was the first guy out there, and the last
one there to shut off the lights. Hard worker and a genuinely nice guy. The Grayslake community will
miss him!”
“Many years of wonderful smiles running the clocks and making the kids smile. God Bless you Ray.
Peace”
“Wonderful, dedicated man! Made such a positive impact on our community. Deepest condolences to
his family”
“Thanks Ray for taking great care of our kids and keeping the games on time!”
“He was usually behind the scenes but so many games could not have occurred in Grayslake without
this man and his hard work. Sending prayers to his family and the thousands he touched!”

“Ray was the face of the GLPD and we were so lucky to have him. Ray went above and beyond what
was asked of him. Most of the softball girls thought he ran the park district. This summer at Alleghany
won’t be the same without him.”

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.
RELEASE OF INFORMATION
During camp sessions, photos are often taken
of all participants. Please see the back of the
registration form for details.

Our preschool camps are designed to
expose your child to a fun and exciting
learning environment. We recommend
our camps to help transition your child
into a semi-structured learning
atmosphere in order to prepare them
for Preschool. Preschool Camps focus on
introducing circle time, educational
concepts, structured projects and
social interaction with peers. The Park
District takes great pride in providing a
positive, nurturing and safe environment
for all children to grow.
Any questions on Preschool Camps,
please contact Shelly Regnier by email
at sregnier@glpd.com or call
the Park District at (847) 223-7529
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
campers must be potty trained before camp begins.
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.

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)

an attacker immediately. They are easy to learn and

with a partner to learn the techniques taught in class
which include defenses against armed and unarmed attackers; single/multiple attackers; standing, sitting, and
ground techniques; and rape defense/prevention. This

how to defend yourself from a physical attack including; grabs, punches, chokes, bear hugs, headlocks,
kicks, knives, guns, and more from a much bigger and
stronger attacker. Participants will also be given a take
home Personal Safety Guide to help make you safer in
all areas of your lives. This Class Could Save Your Life.

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.
