Windy City Winnies October outing October 3, 4 and 5 at Blackhawk Camp Grounds

Early arrivals will have the opportunity to visit the

Railroad Park in Rochelle. This is a switching yards with a conductor's bird's eye view of the trains which  pass by a special switching system every 15 minutes. There is also a Museum about 3 blocks away that explains why this is special

(Don't confuse this with the Illinois Railroad Museum] Dinner plans are still in the making.

Friday at 11:00 am we will be going to the Tinker Swiss Cottage Museum, a restored 1865 home. We have yet to establish the cost but it will be $5.00 or less.

Friday evening will find us at the Sunrise 4 Restaurant where they serve all you can eat walleye along with a variety of other meals.

Saturday begins with French toast provided by the wagon master team.

Remember to bring breakfast goodies 'and treats for the kids as they will be celebrating Halloween this weekend.

We all will be dressing in costumes for the happy hour and dinner.

NO EXCEPTIONS!

The wagon masters will dress everyone without a costume, SO BE WARNED.

 

There will be prizes for the best costumes. (Their value depending on the ambitiousness of your masters)

The Saturday dinner will be  pot luck with the wagon masters supplying the Cake.

Also bring any items you wish to donate to our fund raising white elephant auction and cash to bid. All proceeds go into the wagonmasters .

(Just kidding folks wanted to see if you were reading to the end.)

 ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO. INTO THE CLUB TREASURY

This will be after dinner on  Saturday.

As requested in the last E-Mail, please advise your wagon masters or co-wagonmasters if you are planning to attend and whether or not you will be visiting the Tinker Swiss Cottage with us as they do need a head count.

 

Thank you.
