Garden Club Meetings Resume
Grant Park Garden Club is back in action! All interested gardeners (or wanna-be gardeners or even if you are just a lover of gardens) are invited to attend the meetings which are held monthly, the first Wednesday of the month, 7:00 PM at the Fire Station in Grant Park. These are the dates for the Club Meetings: March 4, April 1, May 6, June 3, July 1, August 5, September 2, October 7 and November 4. The Best Blooming Garden Contest as well as the Photography Contest and Exhibition at the Oktoberfest Celebration are our two signature events that will continue in 2015. There are many opportunities to garden in Grant Park even if you don’t have a garden. Stop by at one of the meetings to meet us and learn all about how the connection to the earth through gardening can enrich your life.

IN THE EVENT OF A
SEWER EMERGENCY
An EMERGENCY is an unforeseen
circumstance that involves the
septic tank and calls for
IMMEDIATE assistance or relief
If something happens to your water pipes or if the problem is between your house and the
septic tank, you should call your plumber.
The village responsibility is from the
septic tank to the sewer pipe in the street.
Call the Village Hall.
After hours you may call the
Grant Park Police Dispatch
815-465-2131
to put you in touch with our
Maintenance Department.
