🚧 August 2025 Update

Thank you to everyone who has provided feedback over the last couple of weeks regarding the various recreational opportunities at Bloom Park.  We connected with Time2Play participants and their parents, attended a Back-to-School night at Bloom School, met neighbors at the park who provided us with valuable information about park usage and ways to improve it, and received a lot of feedback online.  More to come about which option received the most votes.

🚧 Project Background

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. Baseball and soccer opportunities will remain as is.
