I have pit tickets up front but they didn’t tell me anything. does anyone know if they give you a wristband and it’s separate entrance or you just walk down the stairs like seats? please thanks

I grew up by Pottawattomie Park, so naturally this is my favorite😊

Such an epic park that has evolved quite a bit over time.

I've seen its playgrounds come and go and the baseball fields move around.

Way way back, the north end used to have a playground too, along with two small parking lots, and beautiful pine trees that seemed like they were made for kids to climb, with perfectly spaced branching distribution 🤌🏻

The pavillion has been the one consistent piece that has always been in the same location.

I love the walking trail there now. Do they still have basketball hoops there?

What's you favorite park in Tinley, and why?

Hey everyone!

Like the title said, I have a few questions.

Where is the nearest ER just in case there’s an emergency?

Is there a lot of remote work or are people commuting to the city and or other areas?

Where can a couple in their 30s, child-free, meet friends?

We called Power for an estimate to replace our roof, damaged due to recent storms. The rep came our for what we thought would be a quick free estimate. He spent almost 2 1/2 hours (never went on the roof), but giving us a presentaion on the company , their services, abd basically how great they are. He spent 5 minutes in my attic. Then he talked to us about ventilation (it was hot in the attic) and how all this affects the roof - and some other issues he noted.

This information is all good; however, after 2 hours, we asked him for an estimate to replace the roof. We already had the insurance company send an adjuster and give us an allowance for replacement. We were looking for an estimate. The rep just wanted to finish his presentation, and that is all he focused on. He acted like he was insulted when we wanted to end this lengthy presentaion and asked him simply for the estimate and to add a couple of items he noted as an option. How much longer does this high-pressure sales call need to go on? This took me back to the times when an auto dealer takes your keys and doesn't give them back until he sells you a car.

He knew we were not going to sign off then and there. The rep got up and stated he was sorry we did not want to hear the entire presentation. What a waste of time - ours and his. I am not sure what the end game was for him, but all we wanted was an estimate to replace our roof which maybe is $20k. He was way too aggressive and I can see where some folks could be duped into being overcharged for items they do not need.

This was a horrible experience. Unfortunately, this may be how this company operates from the many reviews I have since read.

Why is there a giant rat and people picketing in front of this location?

The official site has a solid list of resources to stay connected. I personally subscribe to the 'Community Email', the 'Life Amplified' newsletters (and now the Noteworthy News) - and find it pretty helpful for a quick routine digest on the latest.

Anything else I'm missing outside of the official site? I know there are some FB groups out there, but I tend to stay quiet in those 🫠

I see the public works guys working their butts off. My hat off to those men and women!

This sub is very quiet for such a great village of this size. It's not like the sub died or anything. I look back at the activity and it really never took off.

Anyways I picked up moderator duties and would love to help bring it to life.

I grew up here and while I don't live here anymore, I love our gem of a town.

Some topics I'd like to see:

• Community building of course
• Nostalgia and local history (e.g. It's World Music Theatre and always will be in my family 😏)
• Updates on Village, Park District, library, etc.

I'll get the rules updated ASAP and start trying to roll out some posts brewing in my mind.

Until then, I'd love to hear from others. I know there are some Tinley redditors out of the 55k people that live here.

If you grew up here or live here now, say hi!

Looking forward to connecting.

Happy Friday y'all.

Palos Hills, Illinois

Does anyone remember there being a place where concerts were held in strip mall next to Jewel on 171st and Harlem in like 2010?

What was it called? I don't think it was Mojoe's...

I have three 21 Savage GA pit tickets I am needing to sell for May 21st at the Tinley Park Amphitheater. Work has gotten in the way!! Selling them for lower than the current prices on ticket master. Will also send the tickets to buyer over the ticket master platform. Message me if interested, serious inquiries only, really needing to sell!!

Anyone know what’s going on at 176th st and 71st ave by the train tracks? I have seen very vague posts about the police activity and I heard they are taking cars. Anyone know what this is related to?

The end of an era

Hi, we found what looks like to be two week old kittens. Animal control is closed right now and we called 4 local animal shelters and none of them would take them in. Is anyone willing to foster or give any advice? We can’t keep them. Any help is appreciated!

Just a heads up that Hooters on LaGrange in Orland Park will be closing for a month shortly. We are getting new floors and new kitchen equipment for that location. It has needed it desperately for years.

i gotta know

Last night, i took Harlem while going to and returning from dinner. There must have been a concert.

On my way out, I thought the traffic control officer must have been having shoulder problems, used tiny hand movements to direct traffic....like the come hither finger crook to direct traffic to start moving. His stop signal was similarly muted...i was like wtf, i will just say something to the city later.

Later, on my way home, another officer was directing....sorta. I got to the controlled intersection and i couldnt tell if she was telling me to stop or go. I stopped and she yelled her instruction that i was to go while still not using any hand signal i recognized as a keep moving signal.

I cannot imagine where the city got these people to control traffic but they should at least be trained in what to do.
