COUNTY PREPARING FOR SNOW AND ICE SEASON As the days grow shorter and the temperatures turn colder, DuPage County residents are reminded that winter is right around the corner.

COUNTY EMPLOYEES SEW HOLIDAY STOCKINGS FOR TROOPS
DuPage County is pleased to announce that this year’s Soldier Holiday Stocking Project was an overwhelming success.

The stockings, donated by county employees, friends and family, will be sent to U.S. troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan through Operation Support Our Troops.
