Rockford Park District

The Eclipse Lagoon at Nicholas Conservatory and Gardens in Rockford is now open for outdoor ice skating, and they're offering something brand new this year.

One of Rockford's greatest winter events is the Snow Sculpting Competition. Personally, I struggle to get a snow man to stand up in my yard, can you relate? Snow sculpting is truly an art and it's so impressive when the pieces are complete...

The Snow Park at Alpine Hills in Rockford has been making snow for weeks in preparation for their reopening which should be happening this week!

Not even a Christmas miracle could help Rockford Park District's money problems.

Whatever your memories of Riverview Ice House may be, from playing hockey to skating with friends to crunching your tailbone after a clumsy fall (that's mine), it's nice to know you'll be able to make more.

When 2020 pandemic boredom struck kids back in the Summer or Fall, it was easy to just tell the kids to go play outside. But now that we're in the brute on Winter, you might need some help keeping the kids busy. Especially with all that's going on with e-learning and "adaptive pauses"...

Rockford's Nicholas Conservatory and Gardens has (once again this year) provided a much-needed antidote to our current locked-down, stay at home mentality with another stunning lights display.

The Rockford Park District is giving golfers the very last chance to tee-off at Elliot Golf Course today.

The entire month of December is filled with wagon rides, luminary walks, playtime with barn animals and holiday photo ops with horses.

We know All Aglow, at Nicholas Conservatory & Gardens is still a-go, but it will look different this year.
