Chicago is a City of Parks

Jonquil Park Water Feature

Jonquil Park Water Feature

If your family is like mine, hitting one of Chicago’s many city parks in the spring and summer is a great activity.

The Chicago Park District, along with extensive community involvement, has been doing a great job of renovating and improving parks across the city.

As an example, Jonquil Park just re-opened for business after extensive renovations.  The park now sports a new matted play surface, climbing equipment, and to top it all off, a self-service water feature.  Kids can’t wait to press the fountain button to turn on the multiple showers of water which turn off after a pre-determined time.  I’m bringing an umbrella next time which will come in handy when fishing my daughter out of the downpour when it is time to leave.

Supera Park in the same Lincoln Park neighborhood is currently undergoing a complete re-design and will be re-opened sometime this summer.

See you at the park!
