Waving small American flags and holding up congratulatory certificates, roughly 60 recently naturalized U.S. citizens gathered together and smiled for photos to wrap up Elgin's 23rd annual citizenship recognition ceremony Tuesday night at the Centre of Elgin.
The event, for people naturalized in the past year, is coordinated by a group of community volunteers representing Elgin Community College, Gail Borden Public Library, The Literacy Connection, Elgin History Museum, Centro de Información, Chinese Mutual Aid Association, YWCA Elgin and the City of Elgin. It used to be held during a city council meeting but has grown beyond the space of the council chambers, Mayor David Kaptain said.
