The Beautification Commission was established in 2018 for the purpose of enhancing and beautifying the Village of Willow Springs. The seven appointed Commissioners work on several projects which include Legacy Garden Park, shredding events, bingo fundraisers, the Memorial Brick Walkway program, and four Little Libraries located throughout the Village.
Legacy Garden Park, located at 105 Kazwell, Willow Springs, was donated by a resident to encourage community involvement. The Garden holds 18 garden boxes, of which four are ADA-accessible. The Garden Park has a beautiful gazebo where visitors may sit to admire the stunning plantings, a walking path accessible to all the garden boxes, and a water tank for gardeners to access water for their garden boxes.
The Memorial Brick Walkway fundraising program offers the opportunity to purchase a commemorative brick. The Brick Project is in the walkway area from the Village parking lot to the front of the Village Hall.
Little Libraries are located throughout the Village:
- Healing Waters Park (Willow West Drive & 85th Street)
- Historic Bus Stop (Archer Avenue & Flavin Road)
- Legacy Garden Park (105 Kazwell Street)
- Willow Springs train station (Village Hall Circle)
