Gelatin Park Dedication Ceremony

A dedication ceremony for Grayslake’s new Gelatin Park took place on Saturday, November 3rd. Camiros was hired by the Village of Grayslake to develop conceptual design schemes for Gelatin Park which included preserving the former factory’s famous smokestack, a multi-purpose pavilion, a sledding hill, an observational tower, abundant green space, and more. Although the scenery surrounding the dedication ceremony did not contain these additional features illustrated in Camiros’ visioning, Mayor Rhett Taylor expects the park to expand its list of amenities overtime after the grass is fully grown and the other basics are completed.
