For more than a century, Glen Ellyn Park District has been dedicated to meeting the recreational needs of Glen Ellyn residents. Our commitment to enhancing people’s lives and building a stronger community is demonstrated by our diverse offerings and facilities. We maintain 29 parks, 21 playgrounds, and 300 acres of open space that are available to everyone. Our facilities include Ackerman SFC, Lake Ellyn Boathouse, Holes & Knolls, and Sunset Pool. Our Park District offers more than 700 programs and special events for the community to enjoy. Our seasonal Playbooks list all the programs we provide, and they are accessible and affordable for everyone. Our services are tax-supported, with 45% of our operations being financed by annual taxes and the rest through user fees. Our Board of Commissioners is made up of 7 members who are elected by the community to serve 4-year unpaid terms. The mission of the Glen Ellyn Park District is to ensure that our community has access to quality leisure opportunities. Our goal is to create a harmonious blend of recreation programs, facilities, and open spaces that will continue to enhance the quality of life of our residents now and into the future.
