New Office Space on Feinberg Court

Cary Park District is leasing new offices at 855 Feinberg Court, Suite 113 in Cary. The decision to lease space will address a lack of

office space at the Community Center, which has been an ongoing issue for the Park District for many years. As community needs change, and more park and recreation services are offered, the Park District is adjusting as well to better meet these needs. Part of this is creating an opportunity for more flexibility with employee spaces which has become a necessity.

The Community Center at 255 Briargate Road, Cary will continue to be the Park District’s headquarters where all inquiries on program registration and park and facility rentals and requests for information should be directed. The Park District phone number, 847-639-6100, can be used to reach staff in either building.

Hampton Park Receives New PlaygroundConstruction at Hampton Park is nearly complete and is scheduled to open late fall. The park’s upgrades in-clude a new play structure, benches, accessible picnic table, and a concrete path to improve the site and play area accessibility. Hampton Park is the fifth playground replacement since 2014. The next playground to be replaced is Fox Trails Park.

Park Updates

Kaper Park and Lions Park Revitalization ProjectsThis summer construction began at both Kaper and Lions Park.

Parks and recreation have an invaluable impact on communities and individuals. With screen time increasing among not only children but adults, it can become easy to fall into less active lifestyles. The Cary Park District offers hundreds of recreation program as well as 52 parks and miles of trail for both active and passive recreation. We invite you this season to unplug from your devices and enjoy your parks and open spaces or participate in the facilities and programs we have to offer.


Comprehensive Master Plan Update 2016The Master Plan incorporates strategies into an Action Plan that will be implemented over the next five years with an outlook to the next ten years. Implementation of the strategies set forth in this planning document continued. The Board revisited and updated the five year Action Plan while staff efforts focused on several capital initiatives out-lined for completion. The Master Plan, as well as, the Ac-tion Plan and updates related to various projects may be reviewed at carypark.com. A summary of items specific to these planning documents initiated or completed follows:

Walnut Hollow Disc Golf Course

In summer 2017, construction of Walnut Hollow Disc Golf Course began in Hoffman Park. Interest for a disc golf course came from public input received during the 2016 Comprehensive Master Plan Update. The design of the course was spearheaded by David Raica, Director of Planning & Development and Professional Disc Golf Player Dana Vicich with assistance from residents with an interest and passion for the game. The course covers 30 - 40 acres of the southeast side of Hoffman Park starting near the dog park. The course features an 18-hole long course, 6-hole family/short course, concrete tee pads with signage, distinctive landscapes and unique elevations, parking lot, restrooms, benches, and trash receptacles. The course opened August 2018.

Lions Park & Kaper Park Master PlansIn the spring of 2017, the Park District began the devel-opment of site master plans for Lions Park and Kaper Park. To prepare for these improvements, both park sites were rezoned from residential zoning to Park and Open Space zoning classification with the Village of Cary. Improvements to Kaper Park include the replacement of Timbertown with a new playground area, restrooms and storage building, splash pad, picnic shelter, and a new walkway from the parking lot to the playground. Im-provements to Lions Park include ballfield renovations, lacrosse and football field improvements, a refurbished plaza with picnic shelter, benches, spectator bleachers, and the renovation and expansion of restrooms and con-cession building. Construction began in July 2018 and completion is expected by the end of 2018.

2017 - 2018 Year in ReviewHoffman Park Multi Use TrailIn October 2017, the state of Illinois announced theIllinois Transportation Enhancement Project (ITEP) grant funding and submittal process. The deadline set for December 2017 was six months earlier than expected for the grant announcement. To meet this challenge, the Park District sped up its process to prepare a grant sub-mittal. The grant application was for a trail extension of 1.4 miles that connects to the existing 2.1 miles of trail at Hoffman Park and provide a continuous loop throughout the park. It also provides connections to the Meyer-Lafarge gravel pit which is in its final stages of restora-tion and also to the Route 31 trail. The Park District received a $1,140,000 ITEP grant award for this project in May 2018. Projected completion date will be in 2020.

GFOA AwardThe Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) of the United States and Canada awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the Cary Park District for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2017. This is the twelfth consecutive year that the District was recognized with this prestigious award.

2017 Loss Control AwardIn January, the Park District received an award from the Park District Risk Management Agency (PDRMA) for maintaining its current Level A accreditation status,PDRMA’s highest loss control award for 2017. This comprehensive safety and loss control review process audits every aspect of Park District operations to ensure that the District has established and implementeda safety and loss control program. The Districtscored an outstanding 99.43% on this year’s reviewand has maintained its accreditation since 2002.

One Commissioner Appointed to the BoardIn 2017, Josh Howell was appointed to the Park Board to fill a vacancy. Twelve community members expressed interest and the Board considered all applicants. The ap-pointment will end with the election in April 2019.

Equipment Replacement and Facility ImprovementsMaintaining the current resources of the Park District is an annual priority of the Board of Commissioners. Nearly $250,000 was invested in equipment replacement and facility maintenance. Highlights include the replace-ment of three treadmills at the Fitness Center, a chipper, skid steer, filtration pump, maintenance garage boiler, furnace/ac unit, sand pro, greens mowers, and an irrigation pump.

Camp ECHOCamp ECHO stands for Exploring Cary’s Hidden Out-doors and is for children and teens in grades kindergar-ten to eighth grade. 2017 was the sixth year we held our camp in partnership with McHenry County Conservation District at the beautiful Fel-Pro RRR Conservation Area in Cary. Total enrollment during the 10 weeks of camp was 1,986 children. This was the highest enrollment since Camp ECHO began in 2012.

Community Center PoolA total of 1,643 pool memberships were purchased for the 2017 season. This is an increase of 17% from the previous year. Overall, there were 21,926 visits to the pool.

Color Run 5kThe Color Run 5k was offered for the first time. Runners went through parks and along the trail system while get-ting covered in colored powder along the way. Over 150 runners and walkers participated in the inaugural event.

Foxford Hills Golf Club

Foxford Hills Golf Club experienced another successful 2017 golf season with nearly 30,000 paid rounds played, and in July a single day tee sheet of over 300 players was achieved. This was the highest single day of play in course history.

Certified Park and Recreation ProfessionalsThis year three Cary Park District staff members, Vicki Krueger, Paul Rogus, and Liz Gilroy, became Certified Park and Recreation Professionals.

Age Appropriate:Ages and/or grades are listed with programs as guidelines for age-specific ability. The younger the participant, the more this guideline must be followed to ensure safety, en-joyment, and accomplishment. A birth certificate may be requested if doubt occurs concerning a participant’s age.

Behavior:Although the Park District realizes that inappropriate behav-ior may occur, the Park District reserves the right to suspend or remove participants from programs or facilities if hazard-ous, disruptive, and/or destructive behavior persists. If a par-ticipant is taken out of a program or removed from a facility due to these circumstances, a prorated refund will be is-sued for the remainder of the program or facility usage.

Minimum/Maximum:A minimum and maximum number of participants is set for each program. This is to ensure the best possible experience for each participant. The Park District may increase or re-duce program size if necessary.

Photos and Videos Photos and video footage are periodically taken of partici-pants in a class, during a special event, or in the District’s parks and facilities. Please be aware that by registering for Park District programs and activities or by using the Park Dis-trict’s parks and facilities you agree that any photograph or videotape taken by the Park District may be used by the District for promotional purposes including print and elec-tronic media without further permission and without any compensation to you. All photos/videos are property of the Park District.

In Case of Oops!During the course of Park District programs, there can be unforeseen circumstances that force the Park District to change schedules, instructors, combine or postpone pro-grams, adjust facility usage or modify fees. The Park District makes every effort to ensure that the information presented in this brochure is complete and accurate; however, some-times errors do occur and we apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause.

Insurance:The Park District does not carry medical or accident insur-ance for program or facility participants. The cost would make program fees prohibitive. Please review your own personal health insurance plan to be certain that you and your family have the proper coverage.

Policies, Procedures and Guidelines:Additional Park District policies, procedures and guidelines are available for review at the Cary Park District Community Center.

A Note of Thanks:Thank you to School Districts 155, 26 and 3 for providing fa-cilities in which to hold recreational programs; to Park District Commissioners, volunteers, and staff who devote so much of their time; and to you, the community, for your support.

Fees: Resident/Non-resident - The first program fees listed in the brochure are for Cary Park District residents. Non-resident (NR) fees are listed second and are the higher rate of the two. Residents support the Park District through tax dollars, while non-residents pay to participate through higher reg-istration fees. All account balances must be paid in full be-fore registering for new programs.

Fair Share - Those desiring to achieve resident status may pay their “fair share” of taxes based on the taxable value of their home. This entitles an individual to pay in-district fees and register for programs at the same time as residents. Fair share will be applied over a 12-month period. Some excep-tions apply, please refer to the Fair Share Guidelines found in the Forms section of carypark.com.

The taxable value of a property is stated clearly on the tax bill. Fair share in not necessarily for everyone. This has to be determined by you, taking into consideration the frequency of Park District use and the value of your home.

The inquiring individual should provide a copy of their cur-rent tax bill to the Superintendent of Recreation for review. The Fair Share amount will be calculated and a written reply will be sent. If you don’t have a copy of your current tax bill, call your taxing township for your home’s taxable value.

Waiver of Fees - A Waiver of Fees program is available to provide assistance to residents with financial hardship. Con-fidential application may be made to the Superintendent of Recreation. Personal financial records may be requested to verify need.

ADA:The Cary Park District complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which prohibits discrimination in the provision of programs, services or activities to individuals with disabilities. The Park District invites any resident with a special need to contact us, or the Northern Illinois Special Recreation Association staff, upon registration, to ensure a smooth inclusion.

In addition to the programs listed within our brochure, the Park District also provides specialized services for peo-ple with disabilities through the Northern Illinois Special Recreation Association (NISRA). Feel free to call NISRA at 815-459-0737, or see the NISRA section of this brochure for more information.

If you have any questions about the Park District’s ADA policy, or believe you have been unfairly discriminated against in the provision of programs, services or activi-ties of the Cary Park District, please contact Dan Jones at 847-639-6100.
