Even before the Naperville Park District was formed, The Barn was more than just a building to the youth of Naperville who grew up in the 60s and 70s. It soon became a focal point where they could all gather together and form some of the most foundational memories of their childhoods. It was a place of friendship and music. Today, the people who built The Barn, rocked the stage, and danced the night away on the dance floor, remember the good times in this video celebrating a cultural Naperville Landmark lost to time.
