Park District of Oak Park

The start of fall and a new school year signals a great time to make a personal reset towards fitness.

The scenic route of the 2015 Races features a 5K Run/Walk, the 10K Run and Youth Mile for ages 7-14. All events are on October 18.

At the end of the 100th anniversary year of the Park District of Oak Park, residents are invited to a launch party for a limited edition commemorative photo book.

There may not be ellipticals or treadmills to work on, but there is a wide array of classes that make the exercise and fitness program at the Park District's Dole Learning Center a viable alternative to joining a gym.
