Dear Neighbors:

It sure is going to be a strangesummer! Change is always chal-lenging and I’m sure it will be nodifferent for us adapting to onlyone pool complex. Still, we are

lucky that even with closing DolphinPool, we still have LLiioonnss CClluubb PPooooll. That

isn’t true for many other communities that are struggling withthe same issue of aging pools and the tremendous cost to replacethem. As I’m writing this, we’re busy planning for all our aquaticsat Lions Club Pool this year. On one hand it’s sad, but on theother hand it is exciting, too. We’ll be able to direct our resourcesto one facility and will make every effort to maintain higher stan-dards than in the past.

The HHoommeewwoooodd--FFlloossssmmoooorr LLiioonnss CClluubb is providing a generousdonation to help make improvements to Lions Club Pool. As thepool name implies, the park district and the Lions Club go wayback. In fact, the park district purchased the pool from the LionsClub back in 1976. This year, the Lions Club organization is giv-ing back in the form of a new entrance sign and an ADA compli-ant pool lift. In addition, they are contributing toward playequipment for the sand areas in the southwest corner of the com-plex. We are very grateful for their financial support. While wedon’t have the funding for other major renovations at this time,we think you’ll be happy with the changes you see. We appreciateyour support as we work our way through a new era.

Speaking of change, as the world of technology evolves almostdaily, we are working diligently to keep up-to-date. Last year wefocused on upgrading our website and it’s seen a large increase invisits. It’s a great way to learn more about park district programs,facilities and events — so much more than we could possibly fitin this Choices book. Something new over the last few months isour presence on FFaacceebbooookk and TTwwiitttteerr. We have several special-interest Facebook pages, including: LLeeaarrnniinngg TTrreeee PPrreesscchhooooll, HH--FFIIccee AArreennaa, HH--FF RRaaccqquueett && FFiittnneessss CClluubb, TTeeeennss, TThheeaattrree PPrrooggrraammss,RRoovveerrss RRuunn, CCooyyoottee RRuunn GGoollff CCoouurrssee, IIrroonnss OOaakkss, WWiiffffllee FFeesstt,SSttaarrrryy NNiigghhttss and more. Through these Facebook sites, you canget more information specific to those programs. It’s also a greatway to meet new friends and keep in touch with others who havesimilar interests. When you follow us on Twitter (twitter.com/hf-parks), you’ll get “tweets” of information sent to your smartphone or computer, making sure you’re always in the know.

There are so many fun things to do this summer. I hope you areable to find something that interests you. As always, we hope tosee you often!

— Debbie Kopas, Executive Director

HAVE YOU REVERIFIEDYOUR RESIDENCY?

In 2008, the H-F Park District began a district-wide reverifica-

tion of residency. Thank you to those residents who have already

reverified! If you have not done so already, you will be asked to

show evidence of your H-F residency before receiving the dis-

counted resident rate for any program or event. To reverify, you

only need two forms: a current utility bill and, if you will be reg-

istering for dependents, the top half of your most recent 1040

tax return. Forms can be faxed in to 708-957-8574 or brought

into the Irwin Community Center (18120 S. Highland Ave.) or

Goldberg Center (3301 Flossmoor Road). Please call if you have

any questions regarding this process: 708-957-0300. Thank you!

That's what Maddie Reeves discovers in The Hundred Dresses, adapted

from the 1944 book. Set in the 1930s, the story begins when a poor

Polish immigrant family moves to town. When Wanda Petronski tells

Maddie's rich best friend, Peggy, that she has 100 dresses, Peggy laughs

in disbelief, pointing out that Wanda wears the same dress to school

everyday. From that point on, Peggy teases Wanda. While Maddie

doesn't tease Wanda, she does nothing to stop it. After Wanda sud-

denly moves away, the girls discover her 100 exquisite drawings of

dresses. The beauty of Wanda’s work earns the girls’ respect. Maddie

begins to understand that it is more important to speak out and stand

up for people, even if it is not the popular thing to do.
