Bolingbrook Park District Preschool Programs

Experienced teachers create a warm, positive environment where they engage children in a variety of developmentally appropriate activities. Our goal is to help children reach their potential while they learn and grow socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually. We encourage creativity and curiosity, which fosters strong self-esteem and a love of life-long learning.

Our GoalIs to engage all four aspects of learning to nurture growth as an individual as well as a productive member of a community. When these four aspects are in balance, your child will be ready to learn and develop to his or her own potential. The Boling-brook Park District Preschool provides an enjoyable and rewarding first experience in school that will set the stage for a lifetime of learning.

Puddle JumpersA preschool preparation program Ages 2-3 yearsWhether you’re planning to enroll your child into Bolingbrook Park District’s Preschool, or another area preschool, these classes are necessary for getting your child ready to take that jump towards independence. Our curriculum includes valuable, developmentally appropriate activities that enhance the skills needed to start preschool. Children who are new to the program must be between 2 and 3 years of age. Children do not have to be potty trained for Puddle Jumpers classes. Parents do not stay with their children for our Puddle Jumpers Classes, but are requested to remain in the building. The children are dropped off and picked up at the designated class locations. Our Puddle Jumpers 1 class is focused on getting children accustomed to being away from parents in a warm, caring environment. Our ultimate goal in level 1 is to overcome the tears, complete an art creation and teach class participation skills through play. Puddle Jumpers 2, 3, and 4 not only increase in time, but also focus on more preschool preparedness skills such as: making choices between interest areas, taking turns, listening, circle time, following directions, sharing, and participating in clean-up time. Children will also work on fine motor skills as they learn to use a glue stick, write and draw with crayons and markers, and play with various sensory materials in the sensory table.

Kathy Hassert - Recreation Supervisor, Early Childhood and Preschool I live in Bolingbrook with my husband and two children. I earned my B.S. degree in Early Childhood from Northern Illinois University and have 27 years of experience working with children ages infant to 5 years old. I have worked with children in hospitals as a Child Life Therapist in addition to working in the child care field. My career with the BPD started with my being a preschool parent first. After having my daughter in the program and believing in its purpose and path, I became a substitute teacher for the preschool program and an inclusion aide the following year. In 2008, I became the Recreation Supervisor and now am heading into my 5th year on the management team!

Lori Zoeller - Preschool CoordinatorI am a Bolingbrook resident, wife and mother of three great boys. I graduated from Miami University in Ohio with a degree in Elementary Educa-tion. I am a certified teacher, and have taught early childhood for 10 years in public school, private school and park district classrooms. My sons have attended both Stepping Stones and Seedlings programs and truly enjoyed their experiences. In addition to being a parent in the preschool program, I was a substitute teacher here at the park district before accepting the Preschool Coordinator position in January 2013. I love being a part of growing and enhancing this already amazing preschool program that builds social, emotional and educational foundations in the children of our community!

Early Childhood Supervisors


Priority Registration: All three-year-old children currently enrolled in the 2014/2015 preschool year along with their siblings will receive priority registration for the 2015/2016 preschool year. This includes children in our Soon 2B3 Program. All Soon 2B3 and three-year-old classes will receive a special envelope to use for registration. During the lottery, current registration will be verified before the child is registered. If there is a registration in a special envelope that contains a non-sibling child not currently registered for preschool, that registration will be entered after all other registrations have been processed.

Registration procedures and dates are as follows:January 5, 2015: Registration packets will be available to pick up at the Annerino Community Center, Hidden Oaks Nature Center, and the Bolingbrook Recreation & Aquatic Complex.

January 5-February 11, 2015: Preschool registration applications will be accepted at the Annerino Community Center, Hidden Oaks Nature Center and the Bolingbrook Recreation & Aquatic Complex. Simply choose your first, second, third, and fourth choice for your class and submit all registration forms with your $50 registration deposit during this lottery registration period, current Resident ID card, and a copy of your child’s birth certificate. The non-refundable $50 registration fee will be deducted from your child’s yearly tuition. Your park district invoice will reflect this adjustment. This fee is due upon registration for all those registering prior to May 15. If your first choice is filled, and a second, third or fourth choice is not listed on your registration form you will be placed on a waiting list for your first choice. Once your child has been placed in a class, they cannot be placed on a wait list for a different class. This registration period is open only to residents. A current, non-expired Resident ID Card is required at registration. Children who need to be placed at the same time and location for car-pool/child care needs may apply together, as long as their applications are submitted together in the same envelope, stapled together, and all of their choices (first, second, third and fourth) are identical (up to 3 children). Children placed at the same time and location for car-pool/childcare needs are not guaranteed to be in the same classroom. Unfortunately, teacher requests and classmate requests cannot be honored.

February 18, 2015: All of the preschool registration applications submitted between January 5 and February 11 will be placed into the classes randomly based on your choices. Confirmations will be mailed to your home informing you of your child’s class placement the week of February 23. *Please note, a confirmation guarantees your child the class location, day and time-not a particular instructor(s) or classmates.

march 2-may 15, 2015: Registrations will be accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis for any open spots. This registration period will be open to those with Resident IDs and those without for a $50 non-refundable registration deposit.

After may 15, the first preschool payment is due upon registration. After August 15, the first 2 preschool payments are due upon registration. To make preschool payments more convenient, we have created the following payment schedule:

Small Group Swim Lessons by Level Many children learn better in a smaller setting. While we have always offered Multi-Private lessons, many times it is difficult to find children within the same skill set as your childs. We are taking the guess work out of getting your child the individualized attention he/she needs. Each child must be currently at the level that they are signed up for. No class will have more than 6 children, and will have one teacher that specializes in that level. Make-up classes are not available.

Dance notes:• Bolingbrook Park District may replace or substitute teachers as needed, any time in the duration of the session. • Instructors may suggest that students change class levels of training if they feel it is in the best interest of the student. We encourage parents to follow the

advice of the instructors so that their child can receive the best possible dance training.• Once your child’s session begins, no classes will be allowed a prorated fee. Please contact Clara Houdek at (630) 783-6641 or [email protected]

in relation to make-up classes (if available). • There is a chance your child’s dance class might be cancelled due to low enrollment. If this is the case we will try to transfer your child to a similar dance class

or we will issue a refund. • If your child’s class should require a make-up day we may add a class to the end of the session.

Bolingbrook Park District dance program offers professional instruction in all styles of dance to all ages. With a “studio” atmosphere and an outstanding and passionate teaching staff, our dance department is one of the best in the state, nationally recognized and progressive in its programming. Sign up for one or more of our many classes and see why the Bolingbrook Park District dance program is so popular.

Keep in mind: While the park district offers classes by session, students should take a class for at least one year or more, until the requirements of the next level have been mastered. Participating in a class for just a session or two may not be a sufficient length of time to adequately prepare the student for the next level of training. Please also keep in mind, while ages have been provided in the brochure’s description of classes to assist in the registration process they do not supercede the recommendation of the teacher. In other words, the brochure may recommend a particular age for a class, while the teacher recommends something different. Opt to stay in a level until the teacher recommends advancement. Do not hesitate to request feedback or evaluation from your teacher. Remember learning dance is a process that takes years, so don’t rush your training. Remain in the level that suits your capabilities and master the skills in that level before advancing to the next.

Lyrical /JazzAges 9-13 years (beginner/intermediate)Ages 12 years & up (advanced)Apply the mastered fundamentals of jazz and ballet to this very expressive, interpretive style of dance. Lyrical/Jazz is quite popular and diverse, ranging from a more fluent, balletic approach to a stylized “thrashy” jazz method to a syncopated hip hop style. Students will be exposed to a wide range of dance styles and will apply these styles to very emotional and creative choreography. The lyrical/jazz for 9-13 year olds requires at least 1 full year of jazz and/or ballet. Lyrical/Jazz for the dancer 12 years or older requires strong and mastered technique from jazz and/or ballet background - advanced level dance technique is required, so interested students must be at a level III of ballet and/or jazz or higher.

my child was in Tee-ball/Coach-pitch last year, what next?You’ve come to the right place. Most all of the kids in BYBL started in the tee-ball league and may have played in coach-pitch. Either the Pinto or the Mustang division is where your child would play.

Is there a lot of travel involved?Pinto through Pony divisions plays all home games in Bolingbrook and will travel to nearby communities for away games.

Are uniforms included in the registration fees?Yes. All players will receive a complete uniform including pants, socks, jersey and hat. Pinto, Mustang, Bronco and Pony age players receive MLB replica uni-form jerseys and caps.

Are families required to participate in fundraising during the spring season?Candy sales are offered to help offset some of the registration costs of playing spring baseball and to help keep the cost of playing affordable. One of the main benefits of our sale is that BYBL only asks families to sell candy per family (not sell boxes for each child playing). Families also have the option to buy-out and not sell the candy.

BYBL Pinto division: Ages 7 and 8The Pinto division is intended for 7 and 8 year old players that want to take the next step after playing coach-pitch or tee-ball. Children will begin to learn the whole game of baseball. They will begin to learn how to pitch from the wind-up and stretch, catch, steal bases, play the outfield, hit the cutoff man, defend the steal, acknowledge base signs, and turn the double play. For this age player, the base path is set at 50 ft., and they pitch from 38 ft. The Pinto Division is intended to be an instructional league, but season standings are kept and there is post-season play resulting in a Pinto champion.

All players have equivalent playing time, and rules are in place for younger pitchers to allow them opportunity as well. In Pinto, children can expect to play approximately 14-16 games each spring season and all games are completed prior to the 4th of July, leaving family summer vacations intact. Uniforms are provided: MLB replica jersey and cap, pants and socks.

Most Pinto games are played right here in Bolingbrook. This is an extremely fun age for children’s baseball as they develop and refine baseball skills and learn to “think” the game of baseball.

Colt & Palomino divisionsRegistration is open online at bybl.org starting in June. Season will start in early September and run until late October. These divisions will play games on all weekdays and weekends but not more than 2 games a week. Games are played at Indian Boundary and other SWILA communities in the Southwest Suburbs. There will be standings, playoffs and a championship game for each division at Silver Cross Field in Joliet, home of the Joliet Slammers. Division assignments for the fall season are determined by player’s age as of April 30, 2015.

BYBL “Rampage” Travel BaseballBolingbrook Youth Baseball League is proud to announce that the spring 2016 season will be the seventh season for Rampage Baseball, our full-time travel baseball program. We intend to have travel teams for 8U-16U (birth date as of April 30th, 2016). Tryouts for Rampage Baseball will be in late July and early August. Check www.bybl.org for exact dates.

Play HARD! Play SMART! Play RAMPAGE!

Who is BYBL?BYBL is the local chapter of PONY Baseball, Inc. (Protect Our Nation’s Youth) and a member of the Greater DuPage PONY Baseball Association (GDPBA). PONY believes that rather than change the rules of the game to make it possible for young people to play, it is better to change the size of the playing fields and to adjust them to the potential of the players. For our Pinto and Mustang divisions (youngest players) they are taught fundamentals from the start, in a controlled environment that allows them to learn, while enhancing their skills, and still play real baseball too.

What are the advantages of BYBL?Authentic baseball rules right from the start, allowing both wind-up and stretch pitching, lead-offs and base stealing - all skills players will need as they advance.

What fundamentals are taught?Coaches work with the kids on how to pitch and catch, the fundamentals of fielding, batting, lead-offs, and stealing. They are taught how to play real base-ball.

What gives BYBL a big game feel?Some of our fields are lighted allowing evening games, and some feature raised mounds for a more authentic experience, grass (as opposed to dirt) infields, electronic scoreboards and nearby travel for away games for the older kids in the Spring, which helps build team spirit and prepare players for the future.


BYBL mustang division: Ages 9 and 10The Mustang division is intended for 9 and 10 year old players that want to take the next step after playing in our Pinto division or Coach-Pitch. Children will enhance what they have already learned in the Pinto Division and integrate it into a more competitive and faster paced environment. The base path is adjusted to 60 ft. for this age player, and they pitch from 44 ft. The Mustang Division is still intended to be an instructional league, but season standings are kept and there is post-season play resulting in a Mustang champion.

Similar to our Pinto Division, all players have equivalent playing time, and rules are in place for younger pitchers to allow them opportunity as well. In Mustang, children can expect to play approximately 18-20 games each spring season and all games are completed prior to the 4th of July, leaving family summer vacations intact. Uniforms are provided: MLB replica jersey and cap, pants and socks.

Most Mustang games are played right here in Bolingbrook. This too, is a fun age for children’s baseball as they continue to develop and refine baseball skills and learn to “think” the game of baseball.

BYBL Bronco division: Ages 11 and 12The Bronco division is for the 11 and 12 year old child looking to build on their baseball experience. Leadoffs, the sacrifice bunt, and hit and run plays are all a part of the Bronco division. Players also get the chance to play on a larger diamond (70 ft bases) for that big league feel, and pitch from 48 ft. Coaches at this level refine the baseball skills and fundamentals of the players without losing site of the main objective - to have fun. Children can expect to play approximately 18-20 games each spring season. Uniforms are provided: MLB replica jersey and cap, pants, belts and socks.

BYBL Pony division: Ages 13 and 14The Pony division is for the 13 and 14 year old interested in enjoying a season rich with baseball and healthy competition. The Pony Division is fun and exciting and played the way baseball is meant to be played. This is real baseball. Leadoffs, steal-ing bases, bunting, hit and run plays, and pick-offs are just some of the nuances of the game at this level. Games are played on the same size fields as middle school at this age (80ft bases), with a 54 ft. mound. Children can expect to play approxi-mately 21-24 games each spring season. Uniforms are provided: MLB replica jersey and cap, pants, belts and socks.

Colt division (Ages 15-16), Palomino division (Ages 17-19), Collegiate di-vision (Ages 18-28)Colt, Palomino & Collegiate divisions will play in the SWILA Baseball Association, a competitive league for High School and Collegiate Players, that has teams from Chi-cago’s SW Suburbs playing 18 spring games (9 home & 9 away), an All-star Game at Silver Cross Field in Joliet and Playoffs leading to the Championship games to be played at Silver Cross Field, home of the Joliet Slammers. All Colt registrants will be drafted to a team. The Palomino Division registrants may or may not be assigned to a team on the discretion of the team(s) Head Coach. Any Palomino or Collegiate registrants who are not assigned to a team would receive a full refund. These divi-sions will play games from Mid-May thru July. Playoffs and Championships will run thru the end of July. Please see the SWILA website for more information. www.swilabaseball.com.

Throwing: The fundamentals of throwing must be taught properly at a young age. Girls that have a good throwing arm and wrist snap learn at a young age. Girls will progress from basic concepts to strong accurate throws.

Hitting: Probably the most desired skill for any ball player is to be able to hit the ball. Hitting is our programs focus. We strive to make great players that can hit the ball hard and far.

Positional skills: Girls will learn the fundamentals of infield and outfield posi-tions.

The BGSA 8U program for 7-8 year olds: 8u is a program designed to teach girls the fundamentals of softball. These girls will focus on proper throwing and catching technique. Girls will also learn the basics of running bases, hitting and learning game concepts.

Pitchers: will also start to be developed at 8u. In games, girls will pitch until there are 4 balls, and then the pitching machine will be used until there is a hit or a strike out. There are no walks in 8u. Girls can steal second base, one base at a time. Girls can lead off only when the ball crosses home plate.

Catchers: will begin learning how to throw to bases on a steal. In games, pitch-ers can only pitch two innings. Our 8u teams will play in the Southwest Sub-urban (SWS) fastpitch league, 8u division. We will play 12-15 league games and a year-end tournament. At 8u our teams will compete, but will focus on having fun every time they are on the field. Our number one goal is to teach and progress.

Bolingbrook Girls Softball Association (BGSA)Bolingbrook Girls Softball Association (BGSA) is a full program that is dedicated to providing the best fastpitch experience for all girls at all levels. The BGSA will serve the Bolingbrook community by providing an exclusive fastpitch pro-gram for girls ages 5-18, from recreational to competitive levels. We will teach the necessary skills to prepare all the girls to play in middle school, high school and college and let them decide what path to take. By teaching fundamentals, sportsmanship and life lessons in an atmosphere that is fun, healthy and safe.
