2008 Referendum Results

Referendum Progress Report - Winter 2009
The St. Charles Park Board plans to break ground in spring 2009 on the 12,000 square foot environmental education center, which will be located west of Campton Hills Park’s athletic fields at the south end of the community garden plots. The center will feature three classrooms, an interpretive exhibit area, nature trails, and more. The development plan will incorporate “green architecture” designed to LEED certification standards, including geo-thermal heating for the building and recycling of rain water.

Construction is also progressing at the site of the Campton Hills Park Swimming Pool Complex. Grading is now underway and the facility should be ready for a grand opening in June 2010.

At the East Side Sports Complex, lighting is being installed on one multi-purpose play field and shelters will be constructed in the center of each ball diamond complex to serve the thousands of youth and adults who participate in league play annually.

Referendum Progress Report - Fall 2008
The St. Charles Park Board plans to break ground this fall on the Campton Hills Swimming Pool Complex. Improvements to the pool’s development plan include:

• keeping the lap pool and the activity pool as separate amenities

• increasing the dimensions of the lap pool in the shallow end portion of the pool, which will create an L-shaped pool, in order to expand it to 25-yards and service lap swimmers during daily operations

By September 2008, large shelters will be constructed in the center of each baseball/softball diamonds at the East Side Sports Complex. Both shelters will serve approximately 3,000 youth and adults who use the park for league play. Shelters will protect participants from inclement weather and provide space for program functions.

Also, new playground equipment will be installed at Cambridge and Taly Parks to meet current safety standards.
