Rocking and Rolling in Rolling Meadows

The city of Rolling Meadows wants to see you rocking and rolling!

The Rolling Meadows Park District’s Recreation Department offers a great variety of programs and activities for everyone in the family. Click here to see which activities you’d like to sign up for.

If you prefer a little less structure with your outdoor fun, there are a great number of parks, playgrounds, open spaces, skate parks, ice rinks, pools, and trails, to make use of. When you’re looking for a natural outdoor experience, check out one of the many nature preserves such as the Paul Douglas Forest Preserve. This beautiful wetland and forest is a great place to find some peace and quiet or to work up a sweat on the trails. The preserve is a birder’s paradise as well, so be sure to pack those binoculars. Another exquisite nature park is the Ned Brown Preserve. Head to the preserve to enjoy canoeing, fishing, biking, hiking, model airplane flying, or, in the winter, cross country skiing, ice skating, and snowmobiling. Wildlife lovers will have a field day here trying to identify all the birds and other animals they see.
