The Oswegoland Park Foundation was established in 2005 as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization to fund the development and enhancement of park district initiatives beyond what tax dollars can support. We aim to create unique recreational experiences and preserve parks and green space in the Oswegoland community for the enjoyment of future generations.
Your support of the Foundation makes you an integral player in working together for a greener tomorrow.

Car Weigh-In: June 14, 2018

The Oswegoland Park Foundation is proud to host its annual PrairieFest Grand Prix, an adult Pinewood Derby, located on the PrairieFest grounds. Individuals, organizations and businesses are all invited to enter a car, as long as it meets race specifications. This event is for engineers, amateur race car designers, and parents who have painstakingly “helped” their scout build a Pinewood Derby car. Participants and spectators will have the opportunity to purchase chances to determine the winning cars, as well as other prizes and raffles.
