Good morning, Naperville.

Naperville remembers Miss Bev Eigenberg—admired as a champion for children—who founded Creative Nursery School and dedicated 30 years to early childhood education; her legacy spans local classrooms and international service in Slovakia.

Naperville Park District announced five spring activities planned for May to get residents outdoors.

The events will include paddleboat, kayak and paddleboard rides at the Paddleboat Quarry starting Saturday May 10 — student summer memberships at Fort Hill Fitness available until June 30, ongoing golf lessons at Springbrook and Naperbrook, dance auditions on Tuesday May 27 for ages 6-18, and beginner archery programs.

Downtown Naperville will welcome the annual 'Splashing into Summer' event starting Monday, June 2 when 18 painted duck sculptures are installed above water to celebrate summer art.

A map of sculpture locations will be available in May and a rubber duck race on Friday, June 6 will take place in the DuPage River to benefit the Riverwalk Foundation.

Naperville will launch its annual free curbside bulk brush collection program next week with pickups on May 4th, 11th, 18th, 26th and June 1st to help residents clean up their yards.

Brush must be neatly piled on the parkway and follow size guidelines—branches should be between 3 and 8 feet long and no more than 6 inches in diameter—while residents can check the city’s map for their assigned week.

Ashfaq Syed will be sworn in on Sunday, May 4 as the first Indian American and Muslim on the Naperville City Council — he has served on local boards and built a career in finance during his eight years of Naperville residency.

Chicago Sinfonietta’s "Tonal Transformation" unfolds May 9-10 with two Chicago premieres: Brittany J. Green’s In the Beginning and Adolphus Hailstork’s Concerto for Alto Saxophone—written for and performed by globally acclaimed soloist Timothy McAllister.
