Flag Day Picnic
The Flag Day Picnic was cancelled due to inclement weather. But we still want to thank the Combined Veterans of Berwyn, Commissioner Frank Amaro and Family and the Berwyn Park District Staff for their support.

Concerts in the Park
Grab your family, friends and a blanket and join us for a delightful evening in the park filled with musical entertainment.
The Berwyn Development Corporation and the Berwyn Park District presents Concerts in the Park. The concerts will be held at Proksa Park each month.

The Sound Encounter Orchestra
With a great variety of music, from 40's to current, standards, motown, funk, rock, dance, swing and international music (including an extensive list of Italian music). This flexibility has them to become one of the busiest and top-rated bands in the midwest...so that you can expect a tight, well rehearsed performance.
