It ’ s not too early to make summer plans — register for camps now through March 15 and save 10 % through early bird pricing and payment plan options . All campers also receive a 30 % discount on an outdoor pool membership to stay cool all summer long at Flick and Roosevelt pools .
And as we look forward to warmer weather the Park District is busy planning for the future . Park District staff and the Board of Commissioners are hard at work finalizing a three-year strategic plan , with input from our recent community-wide survey . The plan will be completed and shared on our website in March .
I look forward to seeing you this Spring in our parks , tennis and pickleball courts , golf courses and all of our other fabulous outdoor recreational facilities !
