Egg Hunt-Sat, March 27 at 10am Sharp!

The Lindenhurst Park District’s Annual Egg 🐰Hunt is still on but will be done a little differently this year. COVID restrictions have forced a few changes and we hope you all will understand. The bunny has dropped off some fun-filled eggs so kids ages 2-10 can register to find them at their favorite local park. Space is limited at each location, so register early. Registration begins on March 9, at 9am. Thank you to our sponsors First Midwest Bank and Orthodontic Specialists of Lake County.

We Are Open!

We are open today, Tuesday, February 16, 2021.  All programs are running as scheduled.

Covid-19/Phase 4 Updates!

Phase 4 Updates

On Wednesday, February 3, 2021, IDPH announced that Region 9 (Lake and Mchenry counties) would move to Phase 4 Guidance beginning Wednesday, February 3, 2021.  IDPH will continue to track the positivity rates and hospital capacity metrics in regions over 14-day monitoring periods to determine if mitigations can be relaxed if additional mitigations are required, or if current mitigations should remain in place. If a region again experiences a sustained resurgence of COVID-19 with mitigations in place, a return to stricter measures may be necessary to curtail the further spread.

What does this mean for the Lindenhurst Park District facilities and programs?  Beginning Wednesday, February 3, 2021, the following changes will be effective:

  • Face masks will be required at ALL times while in the building.
    • Face masks will NOT be required during adult programs that maintain a six-foot distance from ALL other participants at ALL times.
