The Village of Orland<br />

Park’s community events<br />

calendar fills quickly once<br />

all of the summer schedules<br />

are announced. Memorial<br />

Day Weekend starts<br />

the summer fun in Orland<br />

Park, beginning the Village’s<br />

packed season of<br />

events, music, festivals<br />

and more.<br />

“We officially welcome<br />

summer to Orland Park<br />

Memorial Day Weekend,”<br />

said Orland Park Mayor<br />

Keith Pekau. “The Village’s<br />

Centennial Park<br />

Aquatic Center will open<br />

for the season and we<br />

gather as a community to<br />

remember those who made<br />

the ultimate sacrifice at the<br />

village’s Memorial Day<br />

Ceremony.”<br />

The names of veterans<br />

who have been added to<br />

Orland Park’s memorial<br />

are announced as each veteran<br />

stands and waves to<br />

the applauding audience.<br />

Friends and family stand<br />

for those being posthumously<br />

honored.<br />

Orland Park’s ceremony<br />

will be held at 1 p.m.<br />

Monday, May 27, at the<br />

Veterans Memorial, 14700<br />

S. Ravinia Ave. Attendees<br />

St., adjacent to the 143rd<br />

“Orland Park has a rich<br />

history of community<br />

events that bring everyone<br />

together,” said Trustee<br />

Jim Dodge, chair of the<br />

Village’s Recreation and<br />

Parks Committee. “What’s<br />

nice about the Village’s<br />

events is people running<br />

into friends and neighbors<br />

they haven’t seen<br />

in a while, seeing people<br />

from when their kids were<br />

younger. The reunion aspect<br />

of the Village’s events<br />

creates a great community<br />

atmosphere for residents<br />

of all ages.”<br />

Market at the Park also<br />

includes different food<br />

trucks each week, free<br />

lawn games, beer and wine<br />

for purchase, and will feature<br />
