Memorial Tree & Bench Program

Memorial Tree & Bench Program

In May 2007, The Grayslake Community Park District and Grayslake Park Foundation created a special place in Central Park. The “Reflection Pond and Walkway” provides community members with an opportunity to enhance Central Park, while honoring loved ones with donations of trees, benches, and landscaping.

Each tree, or bench, is equipped with a personalized plaque (6″ x 8″).
Birthdays, anniversaries, or the loss of a loved one can be commemorated.
Trees and landscaping can be purchased at any time, but installation will be done in the spring and the fall. The installation of benches will depend on weather and availability.
