Hobson Oak Project
A Legacy Tree in DuPage County
The Hobson Oak was located near Hobson and Greene Roads in DuPage County, Illinois. It is a legacy tree that has stood proud and strong since pre-settlement days. It has been carefully taken down, the last acorns have germinated, and the wood is being given to local artisans to support charitable donations to the Naperville Outdoor Alliance. Recently, Noon Whistle Brewing has collaborated on a beer that is available at their Naperville Tasting Room: the Hobson Oak White Peach Wood IPA!

District 203 Bike Program
The Jeff Moores Bicycle Initiative
is designed to provide schools with training, equipment, and educational tools to get Naperville District 203 students riding bikes: a lifelong activity that benefits overall health. Many students have not learned the skill of bicycling or do not have access to bicycling equipment due to financial constraints. This initiative provides an opportunity to learn and practice bicycling skills, etiquette, and safety in Kindergarten through 5th grade PE classes..
