Geneva Enough is Enough Vigil @ Kane County Courthouse

In light of the mass shooting in Highland Park, we are once again called to join in solidarity. Join us at the Kane County Courthouse in Downtown Geneva this Wednesday night for a candlelight vigil with speakers including elected officials, candidates, and activists.

This gun violence has to stop, and we cannot keep saying “it can’t happen here” because Highland Park is just a drive away and what happened there can happen here. We need change and to make our voices heard. Enough is enough.

March with the Elgin Township Democrats
Jul 4 @ 8:00 am – 10:00 am

Join the Elgin Township Democrats in this year’s Fourth of July Parade.

The parade kicks off at 9am, but try to arrive around 8am so we can coordinate any tasks placement, handing out of candy, etc.

We do not yet know our placement in the parade, so check with the entry point volunteers to get a general idea of where we will be. We will have Jack the Donkey, so we should be easy to find in the line-up.

We are looking for volunteers to help with building this year’s float. If interested contact Carl Strathmann at 630.890.3460.

The Strathmann’s are planning a party after the parade at their place.

You can get more parade info on the official City of Elgin website:
