PARKS
Thank you Rotary Club of Long Grove, Kildeer, and Hawthorn Woods!
This past summer, the Rotary Club of Long Grove, Kildeer,
and Hawthorn Woods presented the Village of Hawthorn
Woods with a generous $1,000 donation towards our ongoing
effort to expand our pollinator landscape as a proclaimed
Monarch Butterfly Waystation.
In addition, thirteen Rotary Club volunteers spent two days
planting over 780 native pollinator and wildflower plugs
between Brierwoods Preserve and Meadowlark Park and
Arboretum in order to provide habitat, life cycle support,
and nutrients for migrating butterflies, bees, and a variety of
other insects.
We thank the Rotary Club of Long Grove, Kildeer, and Hawthorn Woods for their heartfelt financial support
and volunteer efforts!
Seeking Community Volunteers
The Village of Hawthorn Woods Parks & Recreation
Department continually seeks individuals looking to give
back and get involved in their community. We work with
local Girl and Boy Scout groups, Eagle Scouts, community
organizations and businesses to make our parks better and
more beautiful. If your group, or any individual, would like to
help out in our parks (gardening, weeding, watering, etc.),
please contact Brian at bsullivan@vhw.org or (847) 847-
