Grandparents' Day Celebration at Orland Township Dinner Dance

ORLAND PARK, IL — Grandparents and their grandchildren dressed their best for the annual Grandparent and Grandchild Dinner Dance at Orland Township. The three-hour event consisted of family portraits, fun games, good food, and music enjoyable for all generations.

Guests enjoyed a delicious dinner catered by North & Maple Kitchen + Bar; which consisted of chicken nuggets, mostaccioli, mac and cheese, tossed salad with dressing, and cookies for dessert. Then, both grandparents and grandchildren showed off their moves on the dance floor. They also got to compete in a few competitions; like hula-hooping and limbo. Before the night came to an end, the kids even got balloons and toy prizes to take home.

“It’s important to us that we continuously provide families with opportunities to create memories that we hold onto forever,” said Supervisor O’Grady. “We’re glad to celebrate the bond that grandparents and their grandchildren share together.”

Orland Township’s Grandparent and Grandchild Dinner Dance took place on Friday, Sept. 9 in the Orland Township Activity Center.
