Going GREEN!
 The Lisle Park District has recently made great strides in striving to become an eco-friendly leader within the greater Lisle Community.  On Wednesday, April 23, 2008 the Lisle Park District held its first Environmental Committee meeting to begin setting long and short-term goals for environmental protection and advocacy.

Recycle!We need your help! Recently, we partnered with Abitibi Paper Retriever and have set up community collection bins. By collecting paper, the Lisle Park District will be able to raise the money needed to purchase recycling bins and develop a district-wide recycling and environmental awareness initiative.
