Shannon Bueno has volunteered with the Park District for more than a year. She is a student at Glenbard North High School and lives in Carol Stream. You may have seen Shannon at the Park District’s Preschool Fun Fair, Lunch with Dracula, Earth Day, Bunny Bash, Toddler Campfire and Dolly and Me Party. She is a familiar face at the Park District, always ready to lend a hand a share a smile.

Shannon says that the community has changed her to be a better person through her volunteer experiences. “I have learned patience and understanding through my work with children and adults over the last year. My community has changed me!”

Sports Volunteers

Without a solid volunteer base, hundreds of local children would miss out on the experience of playing on a league team for soccer, baseball, softball and basketball. Please consider giving some time to the children of the community.

Event Volunteers

Help is always needed at our community events. General duties and responsibilities include: Assisting staff with set up, running activity stations, serving refreshments and clean up. As a volunteer you can make your own schedule!

For more information about volunteering with the park district, visit csparks.org/volunteer or call (630) 784-6100

Volunteer Spotlight: Shannon Bueno

Test for water leaksPut food coloring in your toilet tank. If it seeps into the toilet bowl without flushing, you have a leak. Fixing it can save up to 1,000 gallons a month.

Try hydrogelsAdd hydrogels to plants that dry out quickly; these water-absorbing polymer crystals swell to several times their original size and slowly release water into the surrounding soil. Hydrogels can be found at your local garden center.

Visit the Earth Day FestivalTake a trip to the Earth Day festival on April 23 to discover more green tips and ideas from local conservation groups. Visit csparks.org/environment for event details.

Shannon Bueno has volunteered with the Park District for more than a year. She is a student at Glenbard North High School and lives in Carol Stream. You may have seen Shannon at the Park District’s Preschool Fun Fair, Lunch with Dracula, Earth Day, Bunny Bash, Toddler Campfire and Dolly and Me Party. She is a familiar face at the Park District, always ready to lend a hand a share a smile.

Shannon says that the community has changed her to be a better person through her volunteer experiences. “I have learned patience and understanding through my work with children and adults over the last year. My community has changed me!”

Sports Volunteers

Without a solid volunteer base, hundreds of local children would miss out on the experience of playing on a league team for soccer, baseball, softball and basketball. Please consider giving some time to the children of the community.

Event Volunteers

Help is always needed at our community events. General duties and responsibilities include: Assisting staff with set up, running activity stations, serving refreshments and clean up. As a volunteer you can make your own schedule!

For more information about volunteering with the park district, visit csparks.org/volunteer or call (630) 784-6100

Test for water leaksPut food coloring in your toilet tank. If it seeps into the toilet bowl without flushing, you have a leak. Fixing it can save up to 1,000 gallons a month.

Try hydrogelsAdd hydrogels to plants that dry out quickly; these water-absorbing polymer crystals swell to several times their original size and slowly release water into the surrounding soil. Hydrogels can be found at your local garden center.

Visit the Earth Day FestivalTake a trip to the Earth Day festival on April 22 to discover more green tips and ideas from local conservation groups. Visit csparks.org/environment for event details.
