The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.

What better way to get out and explore the preserves than to search for the Forest Preserve District's lovable mascot, Willy the Woodchuck, at four preserves from August 1 through August 31.
Individuals who visit Forest Preserve District buildings and attend indoor programs will be encouraged to wear masks starting Thursday, July 29, regardless of vaccination status, due the determination by health officials that Will County is the site of "substantial" coronavirus transmission.
The preserves offer year-round recreational opportunities to engage a variety of interests.
