Gilbert Park & Activity Building
Indoor & outdoor·6 Acres, 1,710 sq ft
At nearly six acres, Gilbert Park is home to one of La Grange University Preschool's classrooms, three tennis courts, a soccer field, a T-ball diamond, a playground, and a walking path that ties it all together. There's something here for nearly every age, from the littlest learners to weekend athletes. Exciting renovations are on the horizon beginning May 2026, so the best is still yet to come.
