Photo Gallery – RNRA 2023 Family Event – Plant & Play

  • Thank you to all of our families who attended the RNRA "Plant & Play" event in Ward Park on June 10th.   Kids had a chance to pot a plant, create a seed bomb to spread native wildflowers in the river, make music, dance, play games, color and enjoy a perfect day in the park.

Thank you to our participating businesses, organizations, and individuals who created the fun activities!

A special thank you to Cook County Commissioner Bridget Degnen and 018th CAPS Sergeant Chris Schenk for spending time with us today!

And last but not least, a huge thanks to our RNRA volunteers who make these events possible.

  • Co-Chairs of the Family Committee, Chase Mangioni and Anna Burdette who are responsible for putting together this great event!
