We are looking forward to the family-friendly Spookfest on Trick or Treat Street with carnival games, haunted hay rides, Great Pumpkin Egg Hunt and terrific entertainment. The Turkey Shootout Scramble is sure to be a festive, holiday golf event that wraps up the golf season. We are certain to have a good ole’ birthday party for the community to celebrate PHPD’s 50th. A lot to look forward to! This year of celebration has been a time of reflection for many here at PHPD. We understand park districts are important for many reasons of which several are obvious: open land, educational opportunities, creating a sense of community and enjoying leisure activities during discretionary time. There are also more reasons that are often overlooked. We allow young patrons to learn about confidence, self-esteem, team work and interpersonal skills; we allow young employees to learn about communication, time management, integrity, and creativity; we allow all ages the opportunity to socialize, exercise, and continue learning new skills. We basically provide something for everyone to do which helps people stay healthy. All of these are valuable and contribute to the quality of life in this community. In my short time with the PHPD, I have observed that residents have a sense of pride in this Park District. This surely motivates us to continue to work hard and strive to give you the best experience possible. If you would like to get updates to stay informed of happenings at the PHPD please “Like” us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter @PHparkdist. We post program information, photos, etc. You may also visit www.phparks.org, sign-up for enewsletter, or call 847.394.2848. I am very proud of PHPD programs, services and the dedicated staff to make your visit a positive experience. It is our pleasure to serve the residents of this wonderful community. If you have an idea for a program please let us know. Thank you for all of your support throughout the year! Sincerely, Christina Ferraro, Executive Director This 90’s Halloween bride is now a real bride. Last Year’s SpookFest at Gary Morava Rec Center. Let our 50th Anniversary Celebration continue!
