The Glen Ellyn Park District Board of Commissioners chose to celebrate the Fourth of July Festivities in a myriad of ways.
Park Board President Ed Hess and Commissioner Ron Aubrey volunteered at Lake Ellyn on July 3 for the Cardboard Boat Regatta. On July 4 at 6:00AM, Commissioner Bill Dallman and former Commissioner Jeff Jourdan volunteered at the Freedom Four Run around Lake Ellyn.
Commissioners Melissa Creech and Julia Nephew bypassed these traditional and time honored Glen Ellyn Park District events and instead chose to march behind the DuPage Democrat Party float, behind signage declaring the Democrat Party of DuPage County, the NEW majority party, as well as Turn DuPage Blue, while displaying signage for Erik Bergman, aka Mr. Julia Nephew and the Democrat Party Nominee for District 4 Forest Preserve Commissioner.
