Glenview Park District

My daughter is learning how to swim I am really very happy with the professional group of teachers
I love this place I like to be here !

Super nice community park district facility! I came here for a party, and the rooms are nice and accommodating. They have also a pool, nice fitness room with plenty of machines and free weights.
They also have 3 indoor basketball courts and an indoor track, that encircles the top of the basketball courts.
The fees look decent — $ 43 for a glenview resident.
BATHROOM REVIEW — this is for specifically the bathrooms by the party rooms. Inside, there’s three urinals and some sturdy toilets. Very spacious and super clean. There’s signs all around reminding you its flu season and it’s a good idea to wash your hands. Sit or squat? Sit!

I don’t belong to the gym so I can’t comment on that. But this is one of the best park district’s in the state and probably the country as well. They have one of the largest selection of programs taught by highly qualified instructors at reasonable costs. They even have a working farm and museum as well as the Grove historical site where we take my son to see Santa every year and learn about Christmas during Colonial times taught by staff in period costume. One of the other posters commented that their child was injured in the summer camp program and I just have to ask if they read the contract that releases the camp from liability for injuries that were not caused by staff negligence. Children run, jump, climb, etc. and even with very good supervision, injuries can happen. The poster did not state whether the staff was negligent or what happened so I wonder about that. I have always been treated with respect and courtesy and all park facilities are immaculate. Even the playgrounds around Glenview have spotless bathrooms and are always well supplied with toilet paper, soap, etc. I can’t speak highly enough about the park district and its facilities. It is one of the reasons I pay the high costs to live in Glenview.

Horrid experience. My 6 year old son had gone to the summer camp program and was injured, thankfully not too severly. Howevery the camp refused to accept any responsibility for the safety of my child or any others. Think again if you feel this place will care for your child once uyou drop him off.

Overall: Very poorly managed gym with disrespectful, rude staff.
Since the time I joined the gym 2 months ago and till date, incorrect information has been passed on to me about rules and regulations, which are not documented anywhere and were not discussed, shared or
signed by me at time of joining. Some examples are:
When my wife and I joined the gym with 90 day membership, we were told bumping up to individual membership will not attract the $ 75 (each) joining fee. We were charged anyways
We were told that our child could use family pool area free, but now we are told we need to pay extra
I was told I could use group exercise room whenever a class is not going on, whereas today a staff member asked me to vacate in a very rude manner saying this was not allowed — and this person was from the marketing department — the guys who should make our experiences better! How ironical!
I goto the gym in the morning and its very irritating for me whenever the staff asks me to do or not to do a particular thing
I have written a mail to the management asking them to give me a list of rules, but nothing was given

My Baby Shower just recently was held by the Glenview Park District. Their park is super clean and safe. Rental is affordable even if your not a resident of the town.

Dear assface,
We both arrived and entered the locker room at the same time. The gym is not busy at 1pm. There are hundreds of empty lockers available. I pay for a RESERVED locker that is unfortunately the last one before the daily lockers start up. I arrive at my locker and you decide that even though the locker room is EMPTY that you need to use the one right next to mine. Are we now bosom buddies? Do I smell fantastic?
I sigh «Jesus» under my breath but audible enough for you to hear and you do not get the hint. I was having a great day until this moment, so I quickly change and go lift weights to de-​stress.
Yours sincerely,
John L.
Actually, the Park Center is a great gym to work out at. I go during my lunch hour to get out of the office and get some exercise. The facility is as nice as any gym I’ve gone to downtown, has all the amenidies of posh downtown gyms, and it’s a fraction of the price, even for non-​Glenview residence such as myself.
There’s the huge selection of free weights and weight machines as well as treadmills, ellipticals, etc. There’s a pool you can swim laps in and even a water park for the kids. There are 3 or 4 full basketball courts too. If you live or work up here and want to workout, check this place out. Hopefully you won’t encounter assface in the locker room!

A great local place to work out for a very reasonable price. The cost is around $ 300 per person. I can’t remember the family or couple costs. They have a full fitness center, an pool with a mini water park, a full sized gym and health food store. The staff is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.
