TABLE OF CONTENTS

3 lwsra.org/register

Registration for in-district residents begins April 30, 2018. Out-of-district and SSSRA Residents begins May 7, 2018.

REGISTRATION INFORMATION: Registration and payment is accepted either by mail, online, or brought to the LWSRC. *Registrations are NOT accepted over the phone or at program sites. Program registration must be received prior to the deadline. Forms of Payment: Checks (made out to LWSRA), cash or credit cards are accepted (Visa/Discover/MasterCard). Confirmation of program registration will not be sent, but you will be notified if a program is cancelled or if placed on a waiting list. Fees will not be prorated for late registration or missed classes. Consideration will be made only if the participant is a new resident. Delinquent accounts: Participation will be denied if a balance remains from a previous season or a late pick-up fee has not been paid.

ANNuAL INFORMATION FORMLWSRA requires all participants to complete an information form annually. This form provides staff with valuable information, which allows LWSRA to conduct its activities in the safest possible manner and to meet the basic needs of the participants. All information is kept strictly confidential and enhances successful participation. Thank you for your cooperation. The form is found in this brochure and online. This form must be updated at the start of the calendar year, or first registration of the calendar year, and whenever information changes.

APPLICATION FOR PARTICIPATION IN SPECIAL OLYMPICS (MED APP)In order to compete in Special Olympic competition, and/or to participate in selected programs, a current Special Olympic medical form must be on file at the LWSRA office and with S.O.I. This form is valid for two years.

ATLANTOAXIAL INSTABILITY RELEASE Individuals with Down syndrome are at risk of having a condition known as atlantoaxial instability (AAI). This condition allows for increased laxity of ligaments involving the top bones of the neck. This results in the abnormally increased movement between the first and second vertebrae and may lead to pressure on the spinal cord which can lead to injury. Certain programs require this release.

INCLuSIONLWSRA understands that not every person with a disability needs to participate in special recreation programs. If you feel that a program offered by your park district (Frankfort, Manhattan, Mokena, New Lenox, Peotone or Wilmington Island) would better meet the needs of your child, follow these steps for inclusion:

Register at your local park district for the desired program as soon as 1. possible. Let them know you will be requesting inclusion assistance. Immediately contact Melissa at LWSRA at (815) 320-3500 ext. *205.

Through meeting(s), observations, etc., it will be determined if inclusion in the 2. program would be appropriate and beneficial, and if an inclusion aide is needed.

For any inclusion needs that cannot be met, the park district will issue a refund.3.

Please understand that we will do our very best to provide an inclusion aide. However, because of staffing restrictions, we are unable to guarantee an aide. Please register early. Last minute requests will not be accepted.

ADALincolnway Special Recreation Association advocates for full participation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Every attempt at reasonable accommodation will be made so that individuals may participate.

REFuND POLICYRefunds after a program begins will be allowed for the following situations only: 1) Cancellation of a program or event by LWSRA; 2) Medical reasons upon presentation of a doctor’s request; 3) The participant moves from the area. All refunds will be pro-rated to the time of departure. A $10.00 service charge will be assessed on all refunds unless refund is due to cancellation by LWSRA. There will be no refunds if a participant cancels out of a program, trip, or special event and LWSRA has incurred costs due to purchase of tickets, rentals, deposits, staffing, etc. Accounts with an existing balance will have the refund automatically applied to their existing balance. For NSF checks, a $20.00 fee will be charged. Refunds will not be given due to weather related cancellations.

RESIDENT/NON-RESIDENT FEESResident Fee: Residents are those living in the boundaries of Frankfort, Frankfort Square, Manhattan, Mokena, New Lenox, Peotone and Wilmington Island Park Districts. *Village of Monee: Households that are within Village of Monee boundaries will be allowed to register at in-district rates.*Homer Township: Homer Township offers assistance to its residents with out-of-district fees. Please contact the LWSRA office to learn more.Non-Resident: Fees are 25% to 50% greater than resident rates. The percentage is determined on a program by program basis by the LWSRA Executive Director.*Non-Resident Exceptions: Participants who are taxpayers of the Lincoln-Way High School District 210 shall be able to attend LWSRA programs held at Lincoln-Way High School at an in-district rate. *Verification required prior to registration. Not eligible for scholarships, door-to-door transportation or SSSRA cooperative agreement.

LWSRA/SSSRA AGREEMENTLWSRA has a cooperative agreement with the South Suburban Special Recreation Association (SSSRA). Each association offers programs to the other association’s residents at in-district rates with the following exceptions: 1) Special Services such as scholarships and door to door transportation are not included. SSSRA’s “First Time Participant Discount” does not apply to LWSRA residents. 2) Participants who wish to register for day camps, vacation trips, away camps and weekend trips may do so at non-resident rates. 3) Early bird discounts or any other discounts do not apply under this agreement. 4) When programs are offered free to either association’s own residents because of grant funds or sponsorships, the program or event will be offered to residents of the other association at the regular fee for residents.

All other agency policies and guidelines apply to residents who register for programs under this Agreement.

Persons residing in these SSSRA member districts are considered residents: Country Club Hills Park District, Hazel Crest Park District, Homewood-Flossmoor Park District, Lan-Oak Park District, Matteson Parks & Recreation Department, Oak Forest Park District, Olympia Fields Park District, Park Forest Recreation & Parks Department, Richton Park Parks & Recreation Department and Tinley Park - Park District.

PAYMENT POLICY FOR REGISTRATION FEESAll fees must be paid in full upon registration for LWSRA programs, events and tournaments. If full payment is not possible then a deposit of at least 25% must be made at time of registration and a payment schedule will be generated at LWSRA’s discretion. Payments must be made by the designated date each month. If a payment is not made on time, a late fee of $15.00 will be assessed and the account considered delinquent. New registrations will not be accepted until ALL HOUSEHOLD outstanding bills are paid. LWSRA reserves the right to deny participation to any individual who becomes delinquent until paid in full.

SCHOLARSHIPSThe scholarship program is funded by donations only. Therefore, availability of scholarships may vary. Scholarships are available for in-district residents who qualify due to financial hardship situations. An individual may qualify for up to 1/2 of program fees for two programs a season. (Maximum of $400 a year.) The remainder due will follow the payment policy stated above. Please call (815) 320-3500 to request a scholarship application or find it online at lwsra.org/forms.

DESIGNATED SCHOLARSHIPS/GIFT CERTIFICATESDesignated scholarships allow both residents and non-residents to hold money in a designated fund to assist with payment of future program fees. Gift certificates are available and make a great gift idea for family and friends to purchase. Individuals with money in their designated fund will be notified prior to each registration season. IMPORTANT: To use your funds, you must either submit the gift certificate or contact the LWSRA office and request the funds be applied to your current balance. LWSRA will not automatically apply any of these funds.
