New Website coming to the
Park District
in 2021

The Park District has contracted with ePageCity Web Design out of Chicago to build a brand-new, accessible website! Website accessibility means that the website is developed so people with disabilities (sensory, motor, or cognitive) can use it. Some examples of accessible features include: descriptive "alternative text" fields for imagery, descriptive labels or instructions within form fields and inputs, and keyboard navigation support. The Park District, working with ePageCity, will ensure that all accessibility guidelines have been met with our new website. We are excited to begin work on this project!!

Easter Bunny Visits our Community

The Easter Parade was a blast! Driving the Easter Bunny through the neighborhood to say Hello to all the kids was so much fun! Thanks to the Grandwood Park Park District, we were able to not only say hello, we were able to hand out 98 goodie bags. See you next year.
