The Recreation Department of Western Springs has released its Summer 2026 Activities Brochure, which is now accessible online. Residents can begin registering for programs starting Friday, March 13, at 8:30 a.m. through the department’s registration website at wsprings.recdesk.com.
Western Springs operates under a council-manager form of government, which separates policy-making from administration and relies on professional staff to deliver public services while supporting advisory boards. The village manager oversees personnel and carries out policies set by the village president and board of trustees, who are elected volunteers. Village offices are located at 740 Hillgrove Avenue.
Resident volunteers play an active role in Western Springs by serving on boards and commissions that address community issues and provide expert recommendations. This engagement helps guide local decision-making and enhances community services. More information about these roles and the structure of local government can be found on the official website.
