Itasca Park District has teamed up with the Itasca Girl Scout Troop 55191 to offer Stay & Play Sport Lockers at Franzen Park (by the Tennis Courts) and at Washington Park (next to the Rec Center). The Sport Lockers contain athletic equipment for all ages and can be used at both parks, and we ask patrons to kindly put the equipment back into the lockers after use.

Backpacks are also available to use for free at the Springbrook Nature Center. We have a bug backpack, a leaf backpack and a bird backpack. These contain items that will help in exploring nature. Families can reserve and check out a backpack by leaving a Photo ID with front desk staff.
