The Winter Lights at Central Park began in 2020 to offer a free outdoor activity to bring happiness and joy to the community during the pandemic. To do this, the Oak Brook Park District, with the support of the Oak Brook Park District Foundation, created an inclusive experience everyone could participate regardless of ability or socioeconomic status. An event growing in design and community popularity, this season’s event offered a free ½ mile loop with over 9+ individual scenes with music and moving lights.
The Oak Brook Park District Foundation is pleased to announce its continued partnership with the Peoples Resource Center. For the second year in a row, the Oak Brook Park District Foundation will accept donations on behalf of the Peoples Resource Center.
When the hives produce enough honey that it can be harvested without risking the health of the colony, the community will have the opportunity to purchase this hyper-local product through the Oak Brook Park District Foundation. The foundation will utilize the funding from honey sales to help to support the mission of the Oak Brook Park District, enhance the growth and preservation of parks, open lands, and increase recreational programming in Oak Brook. When available, the honey may be purchased at the Family Recreation Center and Tennis Center.
Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate the Park District’s 60th Birthday by purchasing a beverage at the Oak Brook Park District Foundation beer tent. Proceeds go directly to the Oak Brook Park District Foundation to support the enhancement, use, growth, and preservation of parks, open lands, facilities, and programs.
The Oak Brook Foundations will be holding its next scheduled Board Meeting via Zoom on September 15, 2022, at 12:30 pm.
