Welcome to Villa Park

Villa Park welcomes one new business to town this month:

- Mijo's Tacos, a family-owned restaurant that serves authentic Mexican food, held a soft opening on January 6. The new restaurant is located at 47 S. Villa Ave.

Kiwanis Bowl-A-Thon

The Kiwani's club will hold its annual Bowl-A-Thon Saturday, February 1, 2020. Registration opens at 12 p.m. at Stardust Bowl (37 E. Lorraine Avenue Addison, IL). Cost per person is $20.00 and includes 3 games of bowling, shoe rental, pizza and drinks. This fee covers the cost of each bowler and is not a contribution.

Phishing Alert

While 2018 hit record-setting numbers as to the number of data breaches and consumer records, the first data breach announcement for 2020 came on January 2 by Blur, a password management company.

Make sure you are up-to-date with the 2020 predictions in cyberattacks. As a general rule of thumb, refrain from responding to emails and texts from unknown senders.

Census 2020

In mid-March, homes across the country will begin receiving invitations to complete the 2020 Census. Once the invitation arrives, you should respond for your home in one of three ways: online, by phone or by mail.

The 2020 Census will determine congressional representation, inform hundreds of billions in federal funding, and provide data that will impact communities for the next decade.
