About Haas Park Advisory Council
We are a non-profit organization consisting of Haas Park parents and neighbors whose primary goal is fundraising in support of Haas Park programming and neighborhood awareness.
01
Fundraising
Park space and community programming are possible through your generous support. Our main goal is to create opportunities for the community to get involved in our park and support its future growth.
02
Programming
Our team is always working on new ideas for programming that brings the community together and takes advantage of our beautiful park space. Have an idea for a program you’d like to see? Contact us
03
Awareness
Our programs are only successful if the community knows about them, which is why one of our main goals is to create awareness for the many exciting programs happening at Haas Park.
04
Maintenance
Parks don’t stay beautiful on their own. Our team coordinates and rolls up our sleeves in service of keeping our parks and facilities, clean, safe, and looking their best for you and your family.
Our Staff
Serving as a conduit between the Chicago Park District and the Logan Square community, our staff works tirelessly to plan, coordinate, and bring fund programming that benefits Haas Park and the surrounding community.
