City to host ‘Special Kids Day, City Works!’

Save the date for “Special Kids Day, City Works!” on Saturday, June 10 from 12 noon – 4 p.m., taking place at Elmhurst City Hall, 209 N. York St. This family event, designed for kids and adults with special needs, is brought to you by the Special Kids Day Organization and the City of Elmhurst.

Come explore how the City of Elmhurst works! Learn from the firefighters, paramedics, police officers, and public works team. Enjoy a quiet space for story time by the Elmhurst History Museum. Elmhurst’s Mayor Scott Levin will take your “vote” to find out some of the City’s favorite stories in 2023.

In partnership with Elmhurst’s Special Kids Day organization, the City of Elmhurst aims to create a unique experience for individuals with special needs; a “City Works” tour to learn how cities operate. The environment will be designed for participants to feel comfortable and free to explore different stations. Departments will provide demonstrations, hands on activities, public safety tips, and a fun opportunity tailored for individuals with special needs to interact with the city employees and elected officials who provide essential services to the community. No registration required!
