Dan Finn
Natural Resources, Horticulture & Turf Manager
Daniel manages our Natural Resources, Horticulture and Turf Management teams. His degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago in Earth and Environmental Sciences along with his background in environmental restoration has prepared him for the job here in Bolingbrook where he has served for almost five years. His department manages about 1,100 acres of land, 400 of which are natural areas. A typical day for Dan includes coordinating his staff, distributing assignments and making sure crews have what they need to do their jobs. He visits five to ten sites per day.
When Dan’s not at work he enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife and two sons. You may see his boys enjoying a variety of park district offerings such as Ninjas and soccer.
