Naperville Ribfest 2010 Celebrating US Independence Day at Knoch Park

Yesterday was July 4th, US Independence Day, and we attended the Naperville Ribfest 2010 at Knoch Park. It was super warm during the day so we waited until about 7PM before heading out. You see, entrance fee of US$12 is also being waved after 7:30PM depending on the volume of crowd attending the event.
As we neared Knoch Park, the sky suddenly turned cloudy and drizzled a bit. This is one of the scenes of the crowd waiting for the firework display sponsored by Meijer at 9:00PM.  (I just realized that I have set the dates on the photos incorrectly. sigh~)

There is a random inspection at the entrance of Knoch Park. Perhaps they want to make sure there will be no bomb threats or stuffs that could compromise public safety.

These are the signs we saw outside and inside the park:

There were indeed several rows of public toilets and we didn't see people rushing around to relieve nature's call.  The organizers did a great job!

Below are some more scenes inside Knoch Park:
