FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM Every Kid Counts is a fund that is available to children of Little Chute residents/taxpayers who, for family financial reasons, would be unable to participate in recreation and/or aquatic programs. The 2018 fund was established thanks to the generous donations from the Great Wisconsin Cheese Festival, Little Chute Jaycees, Kiwanis Club of Little Chute, and Little Chute Knights of Columbus. An application form can be downloaded at or you can pick up a form at the Little Chute Park & Rec. Completed form must be returned with the required proof of eligibility. All applications will be processed on a first-come, first-serve basis until funds are depleted. Upon approval, children (age 17 & under) in the family would receive 50% of their recreation/aquatic program fees paid for from available funds up to a maximum of $50 per child and $150 per household. Upon approval, applicant can register children for programs. MILITARY DISCOUNT PROGRAM In gratitude for their service to our country, discounted fees are available to all Village of Little Chute families with a family member currently deployed overseas. A military family is defined as all persons currently residing at the same address who are directly related to the military person (spouse, child, parents). Military families shall receive a 50% reduction in fees for individual recreation programs, pool passes, and individual sport league participation. Appropriate documentation is required to verify military service. Please call us with any questions. PROGRAM CANCELLATIONS/CHANGES Each program has a minimum number of persons required to run the activity. We reserve the right to cancel a program and issue a full refund if there are not a sufficient number of participants registered to justify the expense of that activity. Notification will be made as soon as possible & refunds will be issued to registrants. Programs are subject to change; review all schedules you pickup. No refunds will be given for activities cancelled due to inclement weather or field conditions. SEVERE WEATHER The Park & Rec has established guidelines and procedures for how to handle severe weather conditions, including extreme heat/ humidity, in order to protect participants, spectators & staff. Parents of participants in any of our outdoor activities will be provided a copy of the guidelines. It is the responsibility of parents to make the ultimate decision as to the participation of their child in events when heat may be a factor, taking into consideration the age and physical condition of their child. Parents also have the ultimate responsibility to inform their child about the dangers of heat and need for protection, including sunscreen and hydration. PARTICIPANT PICTURES To promote our fantastic programs, from time to time photographs may be taken of participants during programs. Photos may be posted to our Facebook page, website, or program books. You must give us written notice if you or your family members do not want to be photographed. Page 3 Park & Rec Office

6 TERRACE TREE PROGRAM The village has budgeted limited funds for this fall s terrace tree planting program. Little Chute property owners pay $60 towards the cost of each terrace tree requested, with remaining balance paid for with budgeted funds. Forestry Department staff plant the terrace trees starting in October, as specified by village s forestry manual. Little Chute property owners interested in applying for a terrace tree can obtain an application form starting at the end of June from the Park & Rec or at TREE CITY USA AWARD The Village of Little Chute was just awarded its 24th Tree City USA Certification for work performed last year. To become a Tree City USA, we must meet four standards: have a tree board/department, a tree care ordinance, a comprehensive community forestry program, and an Arbor Day observance. PRIVATE TREE TRIMMING Pursuant to Village of Little Chute Ordinance section Forestry Policies, there is a required traffic and pedestrian clearance of 10 feet minimum over sidewalks and at least 15 feet over streets. TERRACE TREE PRUNING The Forestry Dept will perform all pruning of terrace trees. Terrace trees are all trees that fall within the Village right-ofway (between the curb and the back of the sidewalk or where it would fall). Pruning will take place either at time of planting (of which only broken or damaged limbs will be removed), upon the request of a property owner, on a periodic pruning cycle, or as the need is determined by the forestry dept. The Village will not top trees in the terrace or on any other property, and it is likewise not advised that anyone partake in such a practice. LIVING MEMORIALS Planting a tree or installing a memorial bench is a thoughtful and distinctive way to present a memorial to a deceased relative or friend, to honor a person who you love or respect, or to say thanks to a person or group. That living, growing tree will be a constant reminder of the reason you gave it. The memorial bench, with an engraved plaque, will enhance the park, offering a resting area for leisure and relaxation. These memorials are tax-deductible contributions. Please call the Park and Rec for more information. Page 4 Park & Rec Office
