Description

On Saturday, July 15, 2023, we encourage people throughout Illinois to ditch their electronic devices and "unplug" to enjoy everything that their local park, recreation, and conservation agencies have to offer. How can you participate? Include Unplug Illinois Day on programming already scheduled for the day, plan a community event, or share the message to get your community out to enjoy your parks, facilities, trails, and programs! 

Unplug Illinois promotes the value that parks, recreation and conservation play in creating healthier communities and encourages people to get out, unplug, play, and engage with one another through experiences at local park, recreation, and conservation agencies. Whether a person is biking with friends on local trails, playing a sport, taking in a class, or simply cooling off at the pool, Illinois is home to thousands of facilities and opportunities to help people live a happier and healthier life. Please visit the Unplug Illinois website for more information and follow us on Facebook and Instagram!
