Our facilities will remain closed through May 30 in accordance with the Stay at Home order,  however beginning Monday, May 18 we will be in the office to accept phone calls and answer any questions you may have on Mondays and Wednesday’s from 9am-4pm, closed 12-1pm.

The last few months have been unprecedented for all of us as we navigate and work through the COVID-19 crisis.  The Community Partners, have decided to cancel our first five Live Music in the Parks concerts due to the recommendations and restrictions on large gatherings.  While we understand and share in the disappointment related to this very difficult decision, we must now focus on the health, safety, and well-being of our communities, residents, staff, and concert attendees.  We will continue to monitor this situation and make decisions regarding the rest of the summer concerts at a later date.

We understand the tremendous impact surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. Last week we all went to work, our favorite restaurants and visited the Park District gym.  We all have been urged to stay at home except for shopping for essential items like medicine and food.  People still want to visit our parks, playgrounds, and athletic fields to engage in outdoor activities such as walking, playing a game of soccer, or running to keep healthy – physically and mentally – not only for themselves, but their children who suddenly have nothing to do!  As a reminder, it is under the guidance of the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that for 15 days (starting March 16) all social gatherings of groups of more than 10 people should be avoided and to keep a social distancing of six feet from other people.  In the spirit of cooperation and support for each other and our community, we are asking that everyone does their small part to follow these guidelines.  Our parks, playgrounds, and athletic fields will remain open for you to relax and enjoy, but we kindly ask that you respectively follow these guidelines and do not create gatherings, play-dates, pick-up games, team practices, etc. until further notice.  Also, be advised that our outdoor amenities are not sanitized; use our outdoor amenities with caution and please follow the health and safety guidelines.

As we are all aware this is a constantly changing situation and updates will be provided as to how this affects the use of our facilities and parks.  We will continue to gather information as quickly as we can, learning and making decisions accordingly.  Please follow the “update” section on our website for new information.

Congratulations to our Rock Star Employee of the Month-Guest Services Manager Lisa Behnke!
