The Forest Preserve District of Will County is partnering with local businesses for a "Community Volunteer Workday" on Saturday, April 26, from 8 a.m. to noon, at the District's Whalon Lake in Naperville.
Join employees from Comcast, JULIE, Inc., Saratoga Food Specialties, Bill Jacobs Auto Group, BMO Harris Bank, Enbridge Energy, CITGO Lemont Refinery, CARCARE Collision Centers, Exelon Generation, ExxonMobil Pipeline, and Homer Tree Service, along with other volunteers from the community, to contribute time and effort toward improving the preserve in celebration of Earth Day, Comcast Cares Day, and JULIE's Safe Digging Month.
