Dear Crystal Lake Park Residents,
Thank you for celebrating the life and legacy of Jonathan Carey-Voris. Below please find the link to the PowerPoint presentation from Sunday's memorial service.
The picnic tables within Hunter Park can be reserved for private events. However, reservations are required. Reservations are to be made to the City generally but not later than 14 days prior to the event date in an effort to avoid scheduling conflicts. The reservations will be rendered in seven (7) days of receipt of the request. The reservation will be emailed to the applicant unless an alternative means has been determined. Fees and deposit(s) are due at the time of the reservation request. Please note, the reservation of the park is solely for the exclusive use of the picnic tables within the park. Forms, fees and deposit(s) are to be brought to Frontenac City Hall and checks are to be made payable to the City of Crystal Lake Park. The City Administrator’s office hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00a.m. to 4:00p.m. Please note that the park/playground remains available for public use during these times.

As we enter into warmer weather and enjoy the outdoors, here are a few rules and safety reminders for Hunter Park, the Playground, Splash Pad and Rain Garden. The park and playground rules are posted at the park entrance. Park and Splash Pad hours are from 8:30 a.m. to Dusk.
Playground
The playground has been designated for children 2 to 12 years of age. Adult supervision is strongly recommended.
The playground surface is designed to reduce the risk of injury from falls. To preserve and maintain the playground and surface area, skateboards, motorized vehicles, hoverboards, roller skates/blades, bicycles, scooter, high heels, cleats, pets and smoking are not permitted on the playground or surface area. Please do not use these on the playground and surface area.
Splash Pad
To prevent slipping and falling on the Splash Pad, it is strongly recommended that children wear rubber soled shoes.
Parents: Please supervise your children while in the Park and on the Splash Pad.
Rain Garden
Please do not play in the rain garden and rocks. The stones and plants are there to manage the water run-off from the splash pad. Please do not remove rocks or plants from the rain garden. Throwing stones onto the playground can damage the rubberized surface. Throwing stones onto the splash pad can result in injuries.
Landscaping
Please do not remove or disturb the landscaping in and around the park. The variety of trees, plants and flowers promote the charm of Hunter Park. It is disconcerting to report that the daffodils surrounding Officer Newton’s memorial bench were pulled out by the roots. Please be respectful of the nature and beauty of our city park.
Finally, have fun, enjoy the amenities of our park and be safe. Thank you!

We are encouraging residents to take steps to protect their property and prevent crime by not presenting crimes of opportunity. This is to serve as a reminder to lock your vehicle doors and remove any valuables, even when parking in your driveway.
Criminals look for easy targets. You can make it more difficult for them by following the #9PMRoutine! Many vehicle burglaries, and to a lesser degree, stolen vehicles, occur as a result of vehicles being left unlocked. Criminals walk through neighborhoods, trying vehicle door handles, hoping to find an unlocked vehicle. The best way to prevent vehicle burglaries is to remove all of your valuables, lock your vehicle’s doors upon exiting and take the keys to the vehicle inside your residence.
The Frontenac Police Department strives to promote active participation amongst residents to report suspicious activity when it is observed. The public is a valuable partner in the prevention and solving of crime. We ask the residents of the City of Crystal Lake Park to be aware of any suspicious activity and to report it to Police immediately. If you observe something that seems suspicious, we ask that you call 911 or the Non-Emergency Number @ 314-737-4600 so an officer can be dispatched to investigate.
The Frontenac Police Department is a full service public safety agency providing quality policing services to the citizens of Frontenac, Crystal Lake Park, Huntleigh, and Westwood. The twenty-one sworn officers and one civilian staff member are committed to the established departmental Mission and Values that frame our partnership with the community we serve. It is this partnership that fosters the wonderful quality of life that those who live and work in our area enjoy.
If you observe any suspicious activity, please contact Frontenac Police. If you see something, please say something.
