SUMMER 2026

SUMMER 2026 TABLE OF CONTENTS

It’s time for another action-packed summer at the Arlington Heights Park District! As the days grow longer and warmer, we are excited to share all the summer fun at our parks, facilities and programs with the community.

Our outdoor pools are ready for the season, and we look forward to another great summer of swimming and splash-filled memories. At Recreation Park, we continue to make progress on the new pool, bathhouse and community center. You can learn more on our capital projects webpage.

We also hope you’ve had the chance to visit the Arlington Ridge Center and see the impressive new two-story addition, along with the updated aquatic locker room configurations. These improvements reflect our continued commitment to enhancing recreational opportunities and creating welcoming spaces for all residents.

In addition, we are proud to share that the Park District has been awarded a $600,000 Illinois Department of Natural Resources OSLAD grant to support improvements at Flentie Park which include the following:

• Playground Replacement

• Court Game (options include sand volleyball, bag toss, ladder toss or badminton)

• Ballfield Improvements

• Basketball Court Renovation

• Gaga Ball Pit

• Pedestrian Path Improvements

• Picnic Shelter

This funding represents an important investment in our parks and will help us continue to enhance outdoor spaces for our community to enjoy for years to come and this project is expected to begin in Spring 2027.

Looking ahead, we are especially excited for our signature summer events, including the Weekend of Fun featuring Irish Fest and BBQ, Bands & Brews. We also have new events being introduced this summer that will bring our community together and truly showcase the spirit of Arlington Heights.

On behalf of the Park Board of Commissioners, thank you for your continued support of the Arlington Heights Park District. We look forward to seeing you out in the parks and hope you have a safe, memorable and fun-filled summer.

The Arlington Heights Park District is governed by a Board of elected officials. The Board meets on Tuesdays at the Administration Center. Meetings begin at 6:30PM. Residents are able to attend. Visit ahpd.org for the board meeting schedule.

RECREATION PARK UPDATE

Hey Arlington Heights,

Construction is steadily advancing on Recreation Park’s pool, bathhouse and community center. Along the way, we’ve enjoyed sharing updates and videos that give you a behind-the-scenes view of this exciting community investment. We are excited to share that we anticipate the opening of the community center mid-summer and look forward to welcoming you into this refreshed space.

At this time, we are unable to confirm an opening date for the pool and bathhouse; however, we remain hopeful they may be able to open late this summer. At the same time, we cannot wait for the pool and bathhouse to be completed and are working diligently alongside our partners to complete this project. Thank you for your continued patience and support as we bring these long-term improvements to life.

Here's to a fun summer ahead!
