If You could remember fun Summer places like Riverview Park in Chicago Illinois, Playland Park in Justice Illinois, Kiddieland in Melrose Park Illinois, Old Chicago in Bolingbrook Illinois, Adventure Land in Addison Illinois, or even the 1960's era Free Fair Carnival at West 47th Street and South Damen Avenue in Chicago's Back of the yards neighborhood...then You won't want to miss this fun family oriented presentation.
This will be a fun event filled with happy memories, and We hope to See You there!
