The Addison Park District would like to thank each of the 450 volunteers who gathered at Community Park to share their “Park Pride” during the annual event on Saturday, May 7.

Volunteers spent the morning cleaning up several neighborhood parks, planting flowers and spreading mulch to prepare the grounds for the summer season. All volunteers were given a T-shirt and invited to a complimentary cookout in Community Park after the event.

Volunteer gardeners are invited to save-the-date for a fall bulb-planting event in the parks. This event will be structured similarly to the annual Park Pride spring event.

For more information on volunteering, call (630) 833-0100 or visit our website at www.addisonparks.org.

Addison Park District is committed to providing the highest quality recreational opportunities and open space for everyone. The 2011 Summer Fun Guide in now available in print and online with a full curriculum of leisure activities for all ages and lifestyles.
