On Tuesday, October 13, Junior Chamber Chapters around the world will join together to commemorate 100 years of impact provided locally, nationally and internationally by the organization established in 1915 in St. Louis, MO.

The Naperville Jaycees are proud to welcome local organizations and community members to a cocktail hour to recognize the past, present and future of their Chapter founded here in 1964.

The Naperville Jaycees gathering is slated to begin at 6:30PM Tues., Oct. 13, with a formal presentation at 7PM. The celebration will be held at Judd Kendall VFW Post 3873, 908 Jackson Ave, 60540.

Thanks, Jaycees!
