The Carol Stream Park District celebrated the grand re-opening of the newly renovated Community Park with a ribbon cutting on Monday, September 9. Located at 725 Thornhill Drive, the park is set to become a vibrant recreational hub for the entire community, bringing new life to an area that greatly benefits from public open space. Local legislators, Park District Board members, staff, and community members came together to celebrate this significant park renovation.
Present were Park District Board Commissioners Jeffery, Gramann, Sokolowski, Bird, Powers and Witteck. Park District staff included Executive Director Rini, Directors Bachewicz, Hamilton and Quinn, Superintendent Adamson, Division Manager Mondlock, Managers Anderson, Kintzel and Sisco, and multiple supervisors
Commissioner Jeffery welcomed all who attended this event, including special guests:
Senator Glowiak-Hilton, Representatives Grant and Sanalitro, DuPage County Commissioners Rutledge, Schwarze, and Zay, DuPage County Grant Administrator Miller, Village of Carol Stream Mayor Saverino, Trustees Anselmo, Gieser, McCarthy, and Zalak, Village Manager Holmer, Village Clerk Schwarze, and Carol Stream Police Officer Heckermann.
Carol Stream Police Blue Scoops handed out ice cream.
Without these partnerships this park project would not be possible.
