You can be part of the ongoing development of Central Park by leaving your personalized imprint on our customized brick walkway.



This pathway is located between the softball and football fields on the south end of Central Park.

Be a part of Central Park by leaving a lasting donation to help further develop other parts of the park. 

Funds raised from the Buy-A-Brick Fundraiser will go back into a Central Park fund for the continued support of the newly designated  Reflection Pond & Walkway located on the west side of Central Park.  The Memorial Living Forest is being established to remember those in the Grayslake Community who have lost their lives .

The Grayslake Community Park District and the Grayslake Park Foundation joined in response to the community by designating a walkway and pond area in Central Park where family and friends can honor their loved ones and significant life events with the donation of trees and landscaping. The newly designated “Reflection Pond and Walk-way” provides an opportunity for community members to enhance Central Park with the lasting and living gift of trees. Birthdays, anniversaries, or the loss of a loved one can be commemorated with the donation of a tree that will be planted to eventually form a canopy over the Reflection Walkway. The result will be a beautiful and serene area for reflection and remembrance in the heart of Grayslake. Each tree or other landscaping will be marked with a 6” x 8” brass plate that the purchaser can have 4-6lines imprinted with the name and phrase of their choosing. Trees and landscaping can be purchased at any time but plantings will be done in the spring and the fall. For more information please call the Grayslake Park District office at 847-223-7529.

The GPF is a 501 (c) (3) corporation. Also, you may be able to double your gift if your employer has a matching gift program. Ask about it at work! Grayslake Park Foundation -- 240 Commerce Dr., Grayslake, IL 60030
