Special Thanks

The park district gratefully acknowledges the cooperative efforts shown by the Village of Forest Park and School District #91 in contributing to recreation programs. Without their help, we would not be able to offer the programs that we do!

Photograph Policy

The Park District of Forest Park uses pictures of participants in its brochures and special ads to inform others of our recreational opportunities. Participation in district events and programs implies consent for the district to use photographs for promotional purposes. If you do not want a picture taken, please tell our photographer. If the picture has already been taken, please contact the Park District Office at 366-7500 and let us know that it should not be used.

Pet Policy in the Park

Per section 2.03 of the park’s Conduct Ordinance Code, dogs are not permitted on the internal pathways of the park.

Youth Sports Organizations

The Park District of Forest Park is proud to serve as home field for the Forest Park Youth Soccer Association. Registrations and games are held at the Park District, however the park district does not run these programs. Each of these programs is run by a board of parent volunteers who dedicate their time and energy to serving the youth of our community.

Forest Park Youth Soccer Assn. offers Spring and Fall coed league play for youth from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. For more information please see website at www.fpysa.org
