Glencoe Park District

Glencoe Park District For over 100 years, Glencoe Park District has been the place for FUN!

We provide recreation programs and services for all ages, from toddlers to adults, at three unique facilities: Takiff Center, Weinberg Family Recreation Center, and Glencoe Beach. We are committed to become the most innovative, customer-driven, and fiscally-responsible park district for current and future generations. The Takiff Center features dynamic recreational program rooms for exercise and health, creative and performing arts, early childhood development, and various sports. Also available are a variety of rental spaces for both large and small events, making the facility a welcoming place for community members to gather. Watts Center is open all year for recreation programs, but during the winter months it features two outdoor refrigerated ice rinks. Generations of Glencoe residents have enjoyed figure skating, hockey, broomball and other ice games at Watts. Glencoe Bathing and Boating Beaches are open during the summer months for swimming, sailing, kayaking, and other water activities.

It’s time to say goodbye to our goats!
Join us Friday, September 25 at 2 PM at Milton Park in Glencoe to help us load up the goat trailer and send off our hardworking goats.

They’ve spent the week grazing away invasive species and helping clear Milton Park without chemical pesticides. We’re so grateful for all their hard work!

Everyone is welcome to stop by, say goodbye, and give our goats a final farewell before they head home.

The goats are back at Milton Park, clearing invasive species from the park. The goats will be at Milton through the end of the week.

If you visit, please keep your hands away from the fence. Goats are afraid of dogs, so please avoid walking your dog around Milton Park this week.
