Save The Dates For Spring Events At Frankfort Park District

FRANKFORT, IL — It may not seem like it with snow on the ground and frigid temperatures outside, but spring is truly not far away.

The Frankfort Park District already has several events planned for this spring, so residents can start looking forward to warmer days.

First up will be the 26th annual spring craft show, set for 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on March 1. It is free admission at the Founders Community Center, 140 Oak St.

Later that month, on March 23, Spring on the Green will be held from noon to 2 p.m. on Breidert Green. The all-ages, free event will feature DJ music, games, a balloon artist and more.

To kick off April, the park district will hold its annual family fun fly, from 11 a.m. to noon on April 1 at Main Park. The free event is a statewide kite fly, so you can bring your own kite or borrow one from the park district.
