Recreation and Parks<br />
Recreation facilities in Orland Park continue to increase in kind and number as the community expands. Today, the village<br />
operates more than 60 well-equipped parks and facilities, which offer everything from athletic fields, playgrounds and bike<br />
trails to gymnasiums, fitness studios, basketball, tennis and bocce ball courts.<br />
Orland Park is served by its Recreation<br />
and Parks Departments, both of which<br />
are village departments like police,<br />
public works, finance, etc. Orland Park<br />
does not have a park district.<br />
The Recreation Department offers<br />
a full calendar of programs, events<br />
and outings for residents of all ages.<br />
The Parks and Grounds Department<br />
oversees all of the village’s parks.<br />
At any time during the year, village<br />
residents are involved in nearly 200<br />
different recreational activities.<br />

Recreation Center, the amenity filled<br />

benefits and preventative care along<br />
