Lake Chaminwood
Lake Chaminwood has become a reality. The plan was first developed in 1999. The property was composed of abandoned sand mines. The Forest Preserve is named for the three communities that surround the park - Channahon, Minooka, and Shorewood. The park is between the Dupage River and the Illinois and Michigan Canal State Park, providing a great continuous open space and trail connecting Joliet to LaSalle Peru.
Rules for a Successful Open Space Project
1. Develop a simple plan
2. Develop a good map and graphic
3. Come up with an attractive name
4. Try to get land owners interested in a partial donation
5. Develop political support.
6. Build coalitions.
7. Acquire and improve the park.
** Funny story. I visited the park for the first time last year and was pleased with how it was developed. I snapped a few photos, including photos of the nice playground and the kids who were happily playing. One of the mothers came over and demanded to know why I was photographing her kids? I explained that I planned the park and was glad to see it developed. And then got out of town quickly.
