"Buena Circle and Challenger Parks Advisory Council" formed in 2025 to work with the Chicago Park District on parks and recreation issues for our parks and host community events.

Our mission is to:

• Promote ways for the community to better utilize the Chicago Park District’s programs and facilities at Buena Circle and Challenger Parks for parks and recreation purposes;

• Provide communication to the Park District on matters relating to parks and recreation, nature, events, facilities, and community feedback with regards to Buena Circle and Challenger Parks;

• Increase community awareness by engaging the Buena Circle and Challenger Parks’ community in the planning and implementation of the PAC;

• Provide the community with a vehicle through which information regarding Buena Circle and Challenger Parks can be shared; 

• Support nature within Buena Circle and Challenger Parks; and

• Assist in locating alternate funding sources to enhance the facilities at Buena Circle and Challenger Parks.
