New Playlot at Edison Park Fieldhouse:
As many of you know, the Edison Park Chamber of Commerce, along with the Edison Park Community Council and local, city and state officials has been trying to get a new playlot built at the Edison Park Fieldhouse. Our initial efforts focused on honoring childhood Edison Park resident, Blackhawks' President and CEO, John McDonough. Although Mr. McDonough has given his personal support of the development of this project, the Chicago Park District will not allow us to move forward with naming the park after Mr. McDonough as he has not been deceased for one year - a mandate according to the Park District naming regulations.
While this roadblock is not ideal, it is certainly not the end of our mission! We will continue discussions with John McDonough to hopefully formulate a creative solution to move forward with this project, benefitting the central Edison Park business district and overall community.
We will continue to update you as our discussions progress and we thank the community for its continued support of our efforts.
