Keeping Round Lake in the know—because informed neighbors shape stronger communities

  • Water Bill Increase

    Water Bill Increase

    Village of Round Lake Residents. The time has come for the long anticipated but not excited to see water rate increase.

    The Village has gone to great lengths to get the information and prior warning out not all residents for the past 6-8 months. (Maybe longer)

    Peace

  • Memorial Day

    Memorial Day

    Today, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation. Memorial Day is more than a long weekend—it’s a solemn reminder of the price of freedom.

    Here in Round Lake, we are grateful for the sacrifices made by our service members and their families. Let us carry their legacy forward by living with purpose, compassion, and unity.

    If you’re looking for a meaningful way to reflect with your family, I encourage you to read America’s White Table by Margot Theis Raven. It’s a powerful and moving story that beautifully explains the symbolism of the white table—a tribute to our POWs and MIAs—and helps instill respect and understanding in younger generations.
    Whether you’re attending a ceremony, spending time with loved ones, or simply pausing for a moment of silence, let’s never forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

    Thank you to all who have served. We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
