Salt Creek Rural Park District

As of June, 2010, no outside grills are allowed to be brought in at the Twin Lakes Recreation Area.  To rent an outdoor pavilion or outdoor tent, please contact 847-934-6050 x 202.  Thank you for your cooperation.

Each year your park district suffers several thousand dollars in damage as a result of vandalism. As you probably realize, these costs are borne by you, the taxpayer. Although the park district works closely with the police departments of Palatine and Rolling Meadows, we can only prevent these acts if the perpetrator(s) are caught in the act or are identified by an eyewitness. Should you witness any such acts, please call 911 immediately or our park office at 847-259-6890 with any information that would lead to the apprehension of vandals. Help us make your tax dollars work to your advantage.

A reminder to all parents that when you and your children use the Salt Creek Rural Park District playground areas, these areas are unsupervised. Signs are posted at each of the park locations.  We hope that you and your children enjoy your play experience using the Salt Creek Rural Park District's parks. No dogs allowed in or around the playground.
