Direct any of your calls to the Moraine Valley Post Office if you do not receive your brochure.

Please Note 35

Dogs……They may be your beloved pet, but when they leave “souvenirs” in the park, they become a nuisance to the com munity and violate the park district code.

All animals are prohibited in the parks. Violations are subject to a $500 fine. Remember, the next time your family visits the park, you don’t want to take home that kind of “souvenir”.

Non-Resident Mailing ListIf you live outside of Burbank and wish to receive our brochure, contact our offices at 708-599-2070 to be put on our mailing list. Brochures will be mailed out in late August, December and April.

Early Warning Lightning Detection SystemsThe Park District has installed Early Warning Lightning Detection Systems at Michael Looney, Narragansett, Rice, Harr, Stevenson, MacArthur and Newcastle Parks. If lightning strikes the ground within a 5 mile radius, a horn will sound and a strobe light will flash. If this happens, you should seek shelter in a safe place. After 30 minutes of no ground lightning strikes, an all clear intermittent horn will sound and the strobe light will turn off.

On-Line RegistrationHave no time to get to the Park District? Then visit www.burbankparkdistrict.org to register for your favorite class.

Important Insurance InformationThe Burbank Park District does not carry medical or accident insurance for program 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.

Special RecreationThrough a cooperative agreement with the Oak Lawn Park District, the Burbank Park District is able to offer children and adults who have a disability, handicap or special need the opportunity to participate in the special recreation program. For more information, call the Oak Lawn Recreation Office at 708-857-2200 or pick up brochure at Newcastle Office.

Program VisitsProgram visits are discouraged. With your child’s best interest in mind, parents are invited to the first and last class. (No siblings please.) Our instructors have found the quality of instruction is affected by parents and sibling distraction during class time. We feel it is most beneficial for children to have recreational time with their peers. Our instructors always welcome the opportunity to discuss the participants progress with parents. Thank you

Public Alert!!!In cooperation with the Burbank Police Department, the Park District has put up 11 surveillance cameras directly linked to Burbank’s Police Department. These 11 cameras throughout the parks are being monitored 24/7 to ensure public and property safety.

Frequently Asked Questions: Why Does A Class Get Cancelled?The Burbank Park District has long been known for offering some diverse programs. Classes and special events meet the varied interests, ages and skill levels of all our residents and those in nearby communities. However, classes sometimes have to be cancelled. There are many reasons why. The first and foremost reason is that a particular time offering does not reach its minimum enrollment requirement. Secondly, a new program of interest that was requested by a few patrons is set up, but does not catch on immediately. Also, an instructor may become ill or suddenly unavailable, or a facility may have an unavoidable schedule conflict. These factors we cannot control, especially if the facility is not owned by the park district. The important thing to remember is that no matter what the reason for the class cancellation, the park district staff will make every effort to accommodate you or a family member into a similar program. If we cannot do this, we will happily refund your money. So take a chance — try something new. Be adventurous. You have nothing to lose and only fun, friendship and new experiences to gain. The Benefits are Endless!
