Yoga in the Park

Yoga in the Park are Wednesdays at 7 p.m. at Cortesi Park.

There are so many benefits of yoga- whether you're looking for a form of exercise that won’t make you hurt the next day, needing to work on balance and flexibility, or if you’re a conditioned athlete wishing to balance your current workout routine. Join certified instructor Kimberly LaBounty for a Vinyasa Flow class. Kimberly teaches to all levels and will adapt accordingly. Bring some water and your yoga mat.

Enroll here or call 630-834-8970.

Love Your Neighbor Day

The Love Your Neighbor Day event is the perfect time to bring out the yard work or small repair jobs that need help. This event secures volunteers from local churches and the community who want to spend a day helping their neighbors in need. Do your grandparents live in Villa Park and need help with small repairs or yard work? Need a little extra help with a project you can't finish? Fill out an application today here. Or volunteer your time to help others in the community here.

THANK YOU

The Village wants to take a moment to thank all of our lifeguards on staff for providing outstanding service to our pool attendees. This past holiday weekend alone, lifeguards saved four people between the ages of 8 and 37.

According to the CDC, drowning is the number one cause of unintentional death for children between the ages of 1 and 4. And according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, 390 deaths a year on average are attributed to drowning in a swimming pool or at a spa. When you visit our pool, or any body of water, make sure you are alert at all times.

The Villa Park Aquatic Team consists of 41 dedicated professionals:

32 American Red Cross (ARC) certified Lifeguards
9 ARC First Aid/CPR/AED certified Pool Ambassadors.

Thank you to our 2021 Villa Park Aquatic Team Members:
