Support Clark Park NPA

The Nature Play Space at Clark Park is a long planned and anticipated new feature of the park. Community members, businesses, elected officials, the Chicago Park District, social and athletic organizations have come together to financially support this dream.

Each contributor will receive public thanks and a lasting memorial to them and their organization at the Nature Play Space.  Memorials will include a donor board with the level of participation as set forth below. A sponsored feature at the park will contain the name of the sponsor/donor on a plaque.  There also will be a brick garden feature near the entrance which will be a memorial to donors. Thanks so much for reviewing our plan and vision for this addition to Clark Park honoring kids of all ages!

2019 Twilight Canoe and Kayak Dinner and Auction

It is that time of year again!  The Clark Park Advisory Council is preparing for the Annual Twilight Canoe and Kayak!   On Sunday, September 8th, a line of canoes and kayaks will be slowly gliding up the North Branch of the Chicago River, taking in the beauty of the river and the late summer twilight. 

We may see otters and beaver swimming, an occasional fish diving, and possibly get a glimpse of a blue heron or a mother fox with her young.  Of course the families of ducks may follow right along side of us!  Upon returning to land, there will be a fabulous catered dinner, complete with Jazz and tinkling glasses.  A silent auction is ongoing, as well as raffles, prizes and fun for the kids!

Please come out and have fun, while supporting programming and improvements for Richard Clark Park!    Kids are encouraged and welcome! Canoe and Kayak is included, just bring yourself, and your friends and family!
