SANTA'S RIDE - December 9, 2023

Santa rode around our community on the 9th of December, with an escort from the Lake County Sheriff's Department!!!  Elmer Fallos (Warren Township Supervisor), Amy Sarver (Highway Commissioner), and Tom Hart (Foreman) also participated in the parade and supplied a truck to carry all the toy donations we collected. We had some great volunteers from Warren Township High School and the community to help pass out goodie bags and to collect the toy donations. The sun was shining, the weather was mild, and Santa had a great time greeting all the children and seeing the awesome decorations!

On behalf of the Marine Corp. Reserve Toys for Tots program, the Park District would like to sincerely THANK everyone for their donations this year! We collected more than twice the amount of toys as last year's collection!!! Thanks to you, children that may not have received anything for Christmas this year will have a new toy! We would also like to thank the Warren Township Highway Department for bringing a truck to help us collect all the toys!!!

THANK YOU for your generous donations!!

Tips to Reduce Problems When It Snows

• Please do not shovel or blow snow back into the street after it has been plowed and salted. Snow that is deposited on the street can refreeze and cause hazardous conditions for you or your neighbors.

• When it starts to snow, park your vehicle off the street. This protects it from being plowed in. It also prevents receiving a ticket and being towed.

• Check that your mailbox and post are in good repair and that they are behind the curb, not leaning out over the street.

• If there is a fire hydrant in front of your home, clear the snow around it. It is there for your protection and that of your neighbors.

• Please remove portable basketball hoops from the right-of-way. The Township is not responsible for damages that occur during snow removal operations.

• Please place garbage and recycling bins on the apron of the driveway. These bins are not to be placed on the roadway as they become hazards for plow drivers.
