Thank you to all who braved the rain to come out and particpate in this year's Pitch, Hit & Run.
We would also like to thank all the volunteers who helped out that day and a special thank you to the Windy City Thunderbolts organization for allowing us to use their field despite the weather.

Be sure to stop by Memorial Park, 145th & Homan, to see our new “Bring Your Own Beanbag” stations. Two sets have been installed on the concrete just north of the pavilion. We hope our residents will enjoy this new addition to Memorial Park.
The beanbags are just one of the new additions that are part of the renovation project at Memorial Park. The Midlothian Park District was awarded a $400,000 grant from the Department of Natural Resources in the spring of 2011. The grant will provide some funding for a new 5-field lighted ball hub, an extension of the walking path, a parking lot, bocce ball courts and landscaping. The fitness stations and Bring Your Own Beanbags that were part of the project have already been installed near the existing pavilion.
Construction of the ball fields is scheduled to begin July 1 so the fields will be ready for play in the spring of 2013.

Midlothian Park District Commissioner Tom O’Shea announced that the treasure for the month of May is Raday Lodge Supervisor Joe Badagliacco. Joe was nominated by Office Manager Debbie Miller for filling in on his day off when a scheduled employee was ill. “It is good to know that these part-time employees will step in when they are needed. The party goes on and someone needs to supervise the building,” said Miller.
Joe lives in Midlothian with his parents and his brother Dave, who also works for the Midlothian Park District. Joe began his tenure with the park district as a Day Camp Counselor in 2007. He continues to work as a summer counselor while also working as a supervisor at Raday Lodge. Joe will be a senior at Olivet Nazarene College where he is majoring in physical education. An avid tennis player, Joe also competes on behalf of Olivet Nazarene. We value the service that Joe provides for our clients. We treasure the fact that he understands that his work is important in the overall operation of the park district. Thanks, Joe!
