Memorial Park Project Update (9/15/21):

We have scheduled the grand opening for the Memorial Park Courts to Saturday, October 9. While all of the construction and infrastructure is complete, we are waiting on the delivery of surface paint and player benches. While we don't have an estimated delivery date for either, we anticipate the paint arriving first. If this is the case, we will open the courts as soon as the paint is installed. Please be aware that there will be safety cones blocking areas where the benches are planned to be installed.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns at any time, you may contact the Community Park District's Executive Director - Jessica Cannaday at 708-354-4580.
