🚧 The Rockford Park District and the Rockford School District are collaborating to update specific recreational resources within Bloom Park.  Together, we want to invest over $525,000 in your park.  

As part of the Rockford Park District’s comprehensive playground plan and ongoing community-driven priorities to invest in neighborhood parks, Kevin Erwin Memorial Playground at Bloom Park is past its useful 15-to-20-year lifecycle, and a new playground is needed.  Where a new playground goes within the park and what additional recreational resources are added is all up to you.

View the three options for Bloom Park and vote for your favorite at the link below. Baseball and soccer opportunities will remain as is.

Please note that playground colors are subject to change and design details may be tweaked. These are just initial concepts. Once updated park amenities are chosen, we will also need your feedback in the future about what playground pieces you like best. Construction would likely begin in early Spring and wrap up by end of summer 2026.

Online voting will take place from now through August 18, 2025. In-person voting will take place at Bloom Park near the shelter on Saturday, August 16, 2025 at 10 a.m.
