All Palatine Park District facilities are operating under regular hours of business as scheduled at this time.

Inclement Weather Notification Procedure

The decision to close District facilities is made by the Executive Director and is not taken lightly as many factors influence that decision. The safety of our customers and staff is the most important element in the decision-making process.
