Naperville Park District announces parking lot closures during Last Fling

Editor’s Note:  Someone who was attending the recent arrival of the Joe Naper sculpture noted that whenever a notice goes out from the city about road closures that limit parking, crowds are attracted to the site.

For all the times of special events and concerts, visit www.lastfling.org.

For instance, Naperville Bed Races are held on Porter Ave. at 11AM Sat., Aug. 31.
