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:

  1. Show respect to all participants and staff.
  2. Take directions from staff.
  3. Refrain from using abusive or foul language.
  4. Refrain from causing bodily harm to self, other
    participants, or staff.
  5. 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.
