Rules of Conduct
I. Equal Access
No eligible participant shall be limited
in the exercise of any right, privilege,
advantage or opportunity on the basis
of race, sex, creed, national origin, activities,
services, or benefits.
II. Behavior
Participants are expected to exhibit positive behavior at
all times. The following guidelines have been developed
to help make park district programs safe and enjoyable
for all participants. Additional rules may be developed for
particular programs and athletic leagues as deemed necessary
by staff. Participants shall:
- Show respect to all participants
and staff.
- Take directions from staff.
- Refrain from using abusive
or foul language.
- Refrain
from causing bodily harm to self, other
participants, or staff.
- Show respect to equipment, supplies,
and facilities.
III. Discipline
A positive approach will be used regarding discipline.
Staff will periodically review rules with participants during
the program session. If inappropriate behavior occurs,
prompt resolution will be sought specific to each
situation. The park district reserves the right to dismiss
a participant whose behavior endangers the safety of
himself/herself or others.
IV. Procedure
Upon registration or entry into the program, the
parent/guardian should be solicited for any information
regarding special accommodations needed. For
example, if the registration form asks to describe
accommodation needed for the participant’s enjoyment of
a particular program, and the parent response
indicates "a positive role model for behavior," or another
response of that nature, the parent should be contacted
for information about any behavior modification
programs in place at school or home. Attempts should be
made to utilize these in the program.
