To help with the ongoing need for blood donations during the coronavirus pandemic, the Naperville Park District is hosting donation opportunities at its Alfred Rubin Riverwalk Community Center in partnership with Versiti Blood Center of Illinois.
To allow for plenty of space for social distancing, it will be held on the upper level of the community center, 305 W. Jackson Ave. in downtown Naperville.
New dates are being added each week and some of the blood drives at the community center are sponsored by other community groups, including churches.
Naperville North High School is hosting a blood drive at the community center from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 27. The next Naperville Community Blood Drive will be 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 2.

Naperville Park District s trails provide much-needed outdoor recreation for the community year round. Runners appreciate being able to enjoy the trails in winter, and the park district prioritizes snow removal on the longer trails and along the Riverwalk to keep those trails open.
To help with the costs of snow removal, the Naperville Running Company will partner with Naperville Park District for the sixth consecutive year to help keep a favorite two-mile trail open this winter in south Naperville.
