SOUTH HOLLAND RECREATIONAL

TREE OF LIFE

In 2000, the Community Center Endowment Committee was originally established to allow residents and businesses the opportunity to be a part of the village’s recreational crown jewel. Initial participation helped to underwrite part of the cost of individual rooms within the Community Center. Today, the lobby of the Community Center showcases the beautiful 12’x12’ “Tree of Life.” This display is a visual representation of the generosity and commitment to the relentless pursuit of improvement desired by South Holland’s residents and businesses. If you would like to learn more about the “Tree of Life,” or if you are interested in being a part of the legacy by making a donation, please call the South Holland Village Administration office at 708.210.2900
