[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Welcome to This Day in Barrington History” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]Welcome to January 29th and Day 29 of 365 in Barrington, Illinois! You’ll find our stories of the day – past, present & future (events) – right here on today’s DailyPage.
Because every day has its own rhythm, we’re sharing a song of the day here at 365Barrington.com.
On this day, January 28th in 1962, Peter, Paul and Mary signed their first recording contract with with Warner Bros.—the label they still call home nearly half a century later. The group is credited for helping popularize Bob Dylan’s folk songs such as “Blowing in the Wind”, Peter Paul & Mary’s biggest hit released in 1963. In January of 1963, the group released “Puff the Magic Dragon”, based on a 1959 poem about a dragon by American author, filmmaker, lyricist and inventor, Leonard “Lenny” Lipton, at age 19.

🌟 Employee Spotlight: Strength, Resilience and Determination 🌟
We are beyond proud to celebrate one of our incredible employees, Recreation Supervisor Nicole, who has shown what true perseverance looks like! 💪
After facing a serious injury during her training for the Chicago Marathon, one that would have caused many to give up, she refused to quit. Through hard work, courage and an unbreakable spirit, she not only regained her strength - but went on run AND finish the Chicago Marathon! 🏃♀️🏅
Her journey reminds us all that no obstacle is too great when you have heart, determination, and belief in yourself. She embodies everything we value at Barrington Park District- resilience, positivity and the drive to keep moving forward.
Please join us in congratulating her on this amazing accomplishment! 👏❤️

Today we went around the neighborhood to talk face-to-face about the national blood shortage—and the myths that stop people from donating.
We asked neighbors to fill out our quick survey 📝 and share why they might hesitate to donate 💉. From iron levels to fear of needles, we’re busting misconceptions one doorstep at a time 💪❤️.
Every convo counts. Every myth we bust = more lives saved 🙌
