TEMPORARY CHANGES  Our Mission Statement PROGRAM GUIDE

The downturn of the economy has adversely affected many individuals and businesses, including the Oak Lawn Park District.  A lot of tough decisions have had to be made in order to keep the park district running smoothly without having to drastically increase fees for programs and services.  

Some of the temporary changes include the reduction of staff, cancellation of the Memorial Day and Labor Day events, reduction of hours of operation at facilities and the pools and a change over to volunteer staff for rangers and starters at the golf course.  

Summer is a busy season at the park district with golf, day camps, leagues, lessons and aquatic programs. We hope that you will bear with us as we deal with these changes in order to better serve you.  

Even with these temporary changes, the Oak Lawn Park District has a fun year planned. This summer do not forget to check out the free concerts and movies in the park and the annual July 4th event at Centennial Park and the evening fireworks at Richards High School. Cool off at one of the three pools, play miniature golf, play tennis or basketball at one of the many outdoor courts or just swing on a swing at the park. There is no better time than now to enjoy all that the park district has to offer.

We hope that next year will find us all in a much better position so that we will be able to return to business as usual. We look forward to the coming months and to better things on the horizon.

Let no family be left inside this summer!

The Oak Lawn Park District is committed to promoting a strong sense of community by providing cultural and recreational opportunities in a fun and safe environment. Our mission is to enhance the quality of life for all ages, abilities, and
ethnic backgrounds by offering a variety of leisure services that will promote physical and mental wellness.

We are devoted to preserving open space as well as
establishing and maintaining beautiful parks and facilities.
