The Crete Park Pals Foundation is a non-for-profit foundation organized to foster, encourage, and promote the mission statement of the Crete Park District by providing both financial and volunteer assistance for the support of its functions and programs, as well as dedication to the overall well-being of the residents they serve. Periodic fundraisers and participation in park events are the driving forces used to successfully promote the mission and donations we provide to the Crete Park District. We strive to promote the offerings of the Crete Park District to both Crete residents and the residents of the south suburbs. We want the community to be informed and aware of all the Crete Park District has to offer. Our goal is to assist the Crete Park District in keeping their programming affordable to all and to improve upon the parks and buildings operated by the District. The Crete Park Pals Foundation meets on the second Wednesday of the month at 7:00pm. Meetings are held at the Park Administration Building at 737 W. Exchange Street. If you or someone you know is interested in joining our organization, please attend one of our meetings or contact us at [email protected].
