History

John and Martha Sukola bought their farm in 1946 and when they were ready to retire in 1994, they decided they would rather see their land turned into a park instead of a housing development. They sold 101 acres to the Park District and donated the contents of their barns to the Historical Society. An additional acre of land along Social Row Road was added to the park in 2008.

Three of the shelters at Oak Grove Park were built with monetary assistance from community groups - the Centerville Noon Optimist Club, the Centerville United Soccer Association, and the Centerville Rotary Club, who also donated their labor to the project.
