WOW! The community (and the kids!) really showed up for our little park to clean up for Earth Day! It’s looking so beautiful, you definitely gotta come visit!

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who attended our Hoppin' Hunt. Seeing the community gather inside the fieldhouse despite the weather was a true highlight.

We also want to specifically recognize our contributors. Your support—whether through donations, snacks, or your time—ensures that these events remain free and accessible for all our neighbors. Your investment in our community is what allows us to host successful events, regardless of what the weather throws at us!

It was an honor to coordinate with Alderwoman Ruth Cruz and the Chopin Park Advisory Council once again to serve this wonderful neighborhood.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us this morning at Chopin Park! 🌳✨

We had an amazing turnout for the Chicago Park District’s Earth Day Cleanup. It was inspiring to see so many neighbors working together to keep our park beautiful and green. Our community is definitely a little brighter today thanks to your hard work!

Special thanks to the Chicago Park District and Serve for organizing such a great event.

See you all in the park soon! 🌷
