Say Happy Birthday to Ridgeland Common

Party on Sunday to feature ice time, hot chocolate and a picture on the Zamboni.

It's Ridgeland Common's 50th birthday this weekend. What do you do when you get to be that age? How about, throw a party for all your friends—and then some!

The Park District of Oak Park will have all the trimmings for a great day, from 1:15 to 4 pm, Dec. 16 at 415 W. Lake St.

Party supplies, hats, cup cakes, hot chocolate and popcorn will be served up. Pucks will be served up, too as part of the "chuck-a-puck" contest, as well as other games on ice will be played.
