Josue Pasillas is the best! One of the friendliest Park district employees we have ever met and my girls have now seen him at multiple Park district field trips and they say he is the coolest! As a dad that is what you want to hear when your kids are involved with the park district! Nice work!!!

The park district summer camp is a joke. My son is a "Bowen Ranger" currently there is a waitlist with only 2 other kids his grade in his group, which makes no sense. During the registration process they lost our paperwork a week before camp starts and we had to go to the field house and redo the whole thing. They say on Wednesdays they take the kids to the splash pad (you'd assume the Belvidere one but you would be wrong) there is 2 little sprinklers at the one they go to with 10 other kids, my 10 year old didn't even wanna go and play in it. And today takes the cake, they threw my kids lunch out because it was peanut butter and jelly. Instead of letting him eat his food and then call us and explain that they "don't allow peanuts on the property" they decided to stop him in the beginning of lunch in front of his peers and throw his sandwich out before we could take a bite. "We offered him the chicken nuggets" well that's great he doesn't eat chicken my kid is extremely picky and you took one of the few things he would eat away from him. Honestly these camps are def on the cheaper side but you seriously pay for what you get $150 a week for them to throw my money out and do the bare

I take my children to some of their one-day family activities each season. My children have also completed more than 4 ballet classes, one dance and cheer class, and one hip-hop class. So far, the instructors have been very professional and friendly. The program coordinators have been helpful when we need to cancel a class before it begins. They worked with me when my kids' school schedule interfered with the Park District class. They are a great team!

The Waukegan Park District is FANTASTIC! From the playgrounds, to the Field House, Pool, Events, and programming for kids- it's all high-quality! There are so many options for everyone in the community to be involved in some kind of activity! The Waukegan Park District really works hard to improve and better our town!

The park is enjoyable would be a bit better if there were more than two port-a-potty in the area or at least a real bathroom to the public. I hated having to go to my car and change my baby on a reclined passenger seat. The only part that is kid friendly is the playground.
