This week (September 29 to October 3), John Lewis Concrete Construction may begin replacing sections of the sidewalks at Teutopolis Community Park. 

Please exercise caution and avoid those areas, which will be temporarily closed.

Beginning (today) Monday, September 29^th, the bathrooms at Teutopolis Community Park will be CLOSED until renovations are complete.

The bathrooms west of Teutopolis Junior High School’s baseball diamond are available for use.

The Teutopolis for Tomorrow Parks and Recreation Committee will be hosting its 4th annual Trunk or Treat event at the Teutopolis Community Park on Trick or Treat night, Friday, October 31st from 6 p.m. (after the Halloween parade) to 8 p.m.!  The intention of this event is to provide the opportunity to participate in Trick or Treat night to businesses, organizations, groups, families that live in the country and/or families that live in town who would prefer an alternate solution for people coming to their homes.

Trunk or Treat is an excellent opportunity to promote your business, organization, or group!  Last year, around 650 children participated and committee members received a lot of positive feedback.  You do not need to decorate your vehicle, but, if you choose to do so, prizes will be awarded to the top 3 best decorated vehicles!  Your vehicle can simply be a company vehicle with your logo.

Please note:  The Teutopolis Community Park will be closed for this event, starting at 4 p.m. on Friday, October 31st.  Only those giving out treats will be allowed to park at the Teutopolis Community Park!

To participate in Trunk or Treat as a treat-giver, please register on the Teutopolis Park District's web site (www.teutopolisparkdistrict.com --> Forms --> Online Registration).  The sign-up deadline is October 29th.  Participants will set up from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. that day.

To participate in Trunk or Treat as a treat-receiver, please park at Teutopolis Junior High School and proceed north to the bridge to the park.  Please enter this event at the bridge!  Do not park elsewhere and/or enter the park another way.  We are trying to keep traffic away from the park to keep the kids safe!  Please note - You do NOT have to register to participate as a treat-receiver!

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Kathy Hartke (bkhartke687@outlook.com).
