SPRING TREE PLANTING NOTICE:
Due to the COVID-19 situation, the 2020 spring tree order has been cancelled. Unfortunately, we won’t be proceeding with our spring tree planting this year.
It is our intent to plant the trees scheduled for this year, in the spring of 2021. You can find the full statement from the GF Park District Forestry Department here: www.gfparks.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2020/04/Website-Tree-Planting-Notice.pdf
Wondering about Summer Programs this year?
Due to the evolving COVID-19 situation and the uncertainty of program schedules, the Park District will be delaying the distribution of our Summer Activity Guide, as well as postponing the opening date of summer activity registration for now.
It is our intention to proceed with as many summer programs as possible, with the guidance of our public health department. Once we determine the updated schedules for our programs, we will begin promoting the summer programs to the public. By doing this, we hope to reduce the amount of confusion and possible frustration that would be caused by continually changing program dates and locations due to COVID-19.
We appreciate your understanding and we look forward to a fun summer full of activities and sunshine! For More Info & Updates:
