A MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR
Dear South Holland Residents and Friends,
We have arrived! Spring has sprung, and summer is just around the corner. Our Coming Together 2030 strategic plan can, once again, focus on outdoor activities when the sunlight shines, warmth radiates, and more opportunities abound for us to come together as a community As we enter this season, it’s so important as residents, neighbors, and friends to be that shining example of sunlight and to stay close to people who share in the warmth that sunlight radiates This simple, yet profound, directive is not only apropos of the Village of South Holland but of the way we should choose to engage with each other in our community.
Our wonderful village is enveloped by sunlight in the most diverse ways the vibrance of our neighborhoods, the brilliance of our business leaders, the kindling of ideas in our schools, and the spiritual glow of our church congregations, illuminated in the glory of God Each of these entities breathes life into our community and warmly enriches those who are blessed enough to be a welcomed part of it.
The South Holland Village Board and Administration, village departments, community leaders, and various committees embody the rays of sunlight that radiate throughout the daily lives of our residents, reflecting the servant leadership emblematic of a community steeped in Faith, Family, and Future The ability of our village leadership to transparently and directly connect with residents is reflected in the strength, unity, and loyalty shown in return The shared passion to continually prove South Holland as the preeminent Southland destination personifies an unmatched commitment to excellence sought throughout all facets of our community.
That same passion and connectedness is illustrated in the dedicated involvement of the staff, members and guests of the South Holland Community Center. Those seeking a healthier lifestyle, to learn a new skill, to experience an adventure, or to engage on a social level are recognizing that they can find people and events that make them feel positive, excited, challenged, and refreshed. Our SHRS staff is prepared to be the “ rays of sunlight” needed to help you on your journey to what best fits your needs Explore this edition of the FIT Book, and find a way to be a person who feels like sunlight.
Blessings for a safe and enjoyable summer, Don A De Graff, Mayor Village of South Holland
