Events by L had such a great time at Cantigny Park today!
As you can see the stage set up was in full swing in preparation of the Rockin for the Troops concert this Saturday!
We got to walk around this gorgeous venue and enjoy some (not all unfortunately), of the gardens. They are just magnificent and was a great way to start the morning. Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy as well.
From left to right:
The Robert R. McCormick Museum, The Exedra which is Robert’s grave site in classical Greek and Roman architecture, and finally gorgeous stair cases coming down a beautiful hill that lead to a magnificant fountain.
If you are in the Wheaton area or any Northwest suburbs take a visit to Cantigny. Especially this weekend where you can enjoy Ronnie Dunn and much more.
Here is some information on the event for you:
The magnificence of Cantigny Park, a Ravinia-like experience, and all the patriotism of a Fourth of July celebration, this is a “feel-good” event that your whole family will enjoy!
