Hoffman Estates Park District

This month's theme for HEParks "Where You Belong" celebrates how our park and recreation professionals create a welcoming and inclusive community. "The greatest satisfaction comes from delivering a unique service to the HEParks community during the summer months at Seascape and working alongside an incredible team. Being in Aquatics is vital because it teaches lifesaving skills through our swim programs, benefiting our entire community." - Shelby M. (Aquatics Program Manager at HEParks). This Park and Recreation Month, let's unite and uplift the many reasons why local parks and recreation truly embody the essence of belonging. Together, we can demonstrate why these spaces are Where You Belong. #HEParks #WhereYouBelong #Community
