GRAYSLAKE, Ill. – State Rep. Sam Yingling, D-Grayslake, was honored by the Round Lake Area Park District last week. The group presented Yingling with a plaque to commemorate his work to secure funding for the park district last year and his continued support of park programs and developments.

“I am grateful to have been recognized by the Round Lake Area Park District,” Yingling said.

“Our local parks and the programs our park districts’ offer are an invaluable asset to our area, and I am excited to build upon my partnership with our area’s park and community leaders in the new year.”
