Gateway Special Recreation Association provides recreation<br />
services throughout <strong>the</strong> year to children, teens, and<br />
adults with disabilities.<br />
Gateway S.R.A. was formed through an intergovernmental<br />

We realize that each participant has unique abilities and<br />

<strong>Park</strong> Development News<br />
The <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong>’s Five Year Capital Development Plan, 2008-2013, remains generally on schedule with <strong>the</strong> <strong>District</strong> nearing its<br />
completion. This plan has covered development of Harvester Wetlands, infrastructure improvements, baseball field dugout roofs,<br />
Garywood <strong>Park</strong> re-development, additional park equipment at Citizens, Stevens, and Whittaker <strong>Park</strong>s, tennis court reconstruction<br />
and playground improvements at Woods Pool <strong>Park</strong>, many improvements to <strong>the</strong> Community Center, and <strong>the</strong> soon-to-becompleted<br />
Oak Grove <strong>Park</strong> development. Just a couple of projects remain. Development of a new five year Mater Plan has<br />
begun. Its completion is planned for sometime within calendar year 2012.<br />
Oak Grove <strong>Park</strong><br />
The <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> anticipates a July completion for this project<br />
currently under construction. Located on <strong>the</strong> corner of<br />
Frontage Road and Harvester Drive, Oak Grove <strong>Park</strong> for<br />
many years has been a nice scenic view on <strong>the</strong> street to<br />
Harvester <strong>Park</strong> with no access for a visit except for <strong>the</strong> most<br />
immediate neighbors. That will change with <strong>the</strong> addition of<br />
a small parking lot, picnic shelter, walking paths, and small<br />
infant/toddler play area. Be sure to visit <strong>the</strong> <strong>Park</strong> when it is<br />
completed to marvel at <strong>the</strong> majestic oak trees that dominate<br />
<strong>the</strong> site.<br />
Winter Recreation<br />
Because of limited, at times, winter seasons, it is difficult for a smaller <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> to invest money and limited resources for<br />
facilities available for a limited time duration. However, our love of winter, and <strong>the</strong> continued success and support for our outdoor<br />
ice rink, challenges us to figure out ways to get it done in an affordable manner. This summer, we will be doing field surveying<br />
and planning at Harvester <strong>Park</strong> to try and figure out a way to install a sledding hill, lagoon skating area, and outdoor shelter.<br />
This project is part of our Master Plan, and we are looking forward to researching its feasibility within <strong>the</strong> stormwater system<br />
of <strong>the</strong> Plainfield Road plan which provides <strong>the</strong> engineering for <strong>the</strong> area.<br />
