Commons Park
Commons Park is located directly behind the Village Commons building at 2401 S. DesPlaines Ave. This lovely 14 acre park has a playground for toddlers and school age children, a ball field, sledding hill, tennis courts and two ponds which can be used during the winter for ice-skating. The beauty of the park has been enhanced by "Living Memorials" - trees, plants, bushes, etc. - donated in memory of loved ones. There are also lovely seating areas donated by friends and families of the Village.
Three pavilions are available in the park for picnicking, special events and summer concerts sponsored by the Recreation Department. The paved walkway through the park is a favorite spot for young and old and is used each year for the Betty Scheck Cancer Walk.
Use of all facilities is on a first-come, first-served basis and permits are only granted by the Mayor and/or Village Board.
