2 Great, Fun New Year’s Ideas in Kane County
There are a lot of entertainment options for New Year’s Eve in Kane County, but we’re sharing a couple here that are a little bit different, both from nonprofit organizations. One is a New Year’s Eve celebration that’s perfect for families; the other is a fun, adult event that benefits a good cause.
(And, for the record, the brand, new Nagel Emporium is no relation to the Kane County Connects editor. 🙂
Press releases for both events were emailed to Kane County Connects. If you have an event for a good cause in Kane County, email the information to nagelrick@co.kane.il.us.
