Welcome to Ridgeville Park District.

More than just a park district, Ridgeville is a community. It brings engaging year-round programming for youth and adults, activity-filled summer camps, community events and opportunities to gather with your neighbors and celebrate our diversity.

Ridgeville Park District is a unique and dynamic public resource in south Evanston, with more than 10,000 households living within its district boundaries. Although there are defined boundaries, we welcome everyone to participate in Ridgeville activities. All of our arts and recreational programs are designed to be affordable, and most of our community events are FREE.

With so much to offer, discover what Ridgeville has for you.

Interested in participating in our Earth Day Celebrations? You’re welcome to simply show up at any location, but we’d love to plan for you.

Email your interest or questions to Laura at ridgevilleparkdistrictgardens@gmail.com.
