At an awards luncheon May 10, the Rotary Club of Naperville named the Naperville Park District’s park operations manager Chuck Papanos a Paul Harris Fellow. Papanos, along with nine others, received the award, which is given to individuals who meet high professional and personal standards set forth by Paul Harris, the founder of Rotary.
Papanos has been with the Naperville Park District since 2001, starting as a park specialist. He soon began overseeing the Riverwalk as well as North Parks, and has represented the Park District on the Naperville Riverwalk Commission for many years. Chuck’s staff members plan and maintain the beautiful floral displays along the Riverwalk, work with community groups to prepare for many events.
