Humana Supports Youth Athletics by Funding Much-Needed Renovations to Chicago Park District Athletic Fields

October 29, 2014 /3BL Media/ - 

WHAT:     

Humana has partnered with CBS EcoMedia through its WellnessAd program to fund renovations to the athletic fields at Ridge Park, operated by the Chicago Park District. The athletic fields serve youth baseball, softball and football players year-round, and are used heavily by casual park users in the community. The current conditions of the fields are poor, which limits play by local youth and adversely impacts park programming.

Humana will celebrate the partnership and the renovations slated to commence this Fall with a special family-friendly event held by a local community neighborhood group, the Beverly Ridge Homeowners Association. The meet-and-greet event will be held at Cork and Kerry for community members to meet one another and be involved in community improvement projects. Community members and Humana representatives will gather and enjoy an evening celebrating the field renovation.
