RECREATION LEISURESHIPS (SCHOLARSHIPS)
So every child can play
The Glenview Park District believes that every child should have
access to our programs regardless of their family’s financial
situation. We have partnered with the Glenview State Bank and
Glenview Youth Services to make recreation leisureships available
year-round to families who find it difficult or otherwise impossible
to register their children for park district programs due to financial
constraints. The Glenview Park Foundation also donates 10% of
their net operating income each year to the Leisureship program.
Types of leisureships offered include:
• Payment Plans allow participants to spread the
payment of a program fee over a period of time
• Partial Leisureships allow participants to
pay a reduced fee for a program
• Full Leisureships cover the total fee for a program
The type of leisureship granted will be determined on an individual
basis according to need. To receive more information or apply for
a recreation leisureship, call Alison Guenther of Glenview Youth
Services at 847-724-2620. Leisureship applications, park district
brochures and program registration forms are available at Park
Center, 2400 Chestnut Ave., the park district administrative office
at 1930 Prairie St. or Glenview Youth Services, 3080 W. Lake Ave.
You may also download forms at
glenviewparks.org/index.php/registration.
Applications for leisureships must be returned, along with a com-
pleted registration form, to the Glenview Youth Services office at
3080 W. Lake Ave.
If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation to support
this important program, send a check payable to the Glenview Park
District Leisureship Fund, 1930 Prairie St., Glenview, IL 60025-2800.
