Bolingbrook Park District has released designs of all five playgrounds that are set to be built this summer. Four of the five playgrounds are a result of the successful 2018 referendum ask and the other is from a successful grant application. Demolition has already began on four of the playgrounds, with an estimated completion date of July
The five playgrounds slated to be completed in 2021 are:
- Drafke Park (1125 Quail Run
