The Jaycees are Naperville’s young person’s organization dedicated to philanthropy, volunteerism, and building Naperville’s future leaders. From Lobster Day to the annual Easter Egg Hunt, the Naperville Jaycees help the community by volunteering time, fundraising, helping others and recognizing outstanding effort of others within the community – and have fun doing it!

One Last Fling of the Summer!
The Last Fling is the largest fundraiser for the Naperville Jaycees. Held over Labor Day weekend, the Last Fling is a family-friendly community festival near Downtown Naperville and, for many, is a fun way to say farewell to summer! The Last Fling offers a wide variety of attractions for all ages to enjoy including: music, food and beverage vendors, a family-fun area, a carnival, unique special events, a business expo, a parade and more!
Joining the Naperville Jaycees is easy
