Passing the Baton … Interested in Getting Involved at the Park?

Hello Supera Park fans.  It is getting warm again and the park will once again be in full swing.

On another note, it has been great fun being involved with Supera Park through the renovation and beyond.  Given our involvement with school and other activities, Michelle and I will be taking a more passive role at the park moving forward.  We would love someone to take over, or at a minimum, take the lead on event planning.

If you are interested in getting involved or know someone who would love to step in and take the lead, please pass this post along or let us know.  You can use the contact form or just comment on this post.  It would be great to see the park activities continue.

Thanks and we’ll see you at the park!

Jeff & Michelle

Great Performance by Karen Banks-Lubicz at Supera Park

Karen Banks-Lubicz Performs at Supera park

Despite the overcast weather, all in attendance (even the passers-by walking along Racine) thoroughly enjoyed a great performance by Karen Banks-Lubicz at Supera Park this past Saturday morning.  Nothing like live music to brighten the day and liven up the neighborhood!  A great turnout and fun had by all.

Thanks to both Wrightwood Neighbors Association for sponsoring the event and our local Starbucks at Wrightwood and Racine for providing the coffee.

Stay tuned for our summer event to be held the morning of August 14.

We hope to see you at the park!

New officers of Supera Playlot Advisory Council

Hi!  Happy Holidays!

Sheila and I would like to thank all of you for the wonderful experience we’ve had as the officers of the Supera Playlot Advisory Council.  After four years, we’ve decided to step down and let someone else take over.  Jeff and Michelle Kerr have been active participants on our committee and have agreed to take the roles of advisory council president and vice president.  I have given Jeff a summary of what we’ve done to organize our park events (Halloween party, Easter party and summer concert).  He is planning on continuing these traditions, as well as acting as the contact point for the park district on ongoing needs for Supera Park.

Jeff’s email address is:  jeff@chitownpg.com.  Please contact him with any questions that come up and let me know if I can help with the transition in any way!

Sincerely,

Amy Hand
Sheila O’Sullivan
Supera Playlot Advisory Council
