Please join us for our annual hot dog picnic. Hot dogs, chips, drinks, ice cream all provided as well as the fixins for chicago dogs. Meet local candidates and mingle with fellow Dems from District 8 & 9. Come for the food, the fellowship, the inspiration and the scenic beauty as we watch the sun go down over the Kishwaukee Valley. It was a beautiful and inspiring event in 2023, and for sure this year will be equally great.
It’s all happening on the evening of Wednesday, June 5, 2024 — from 5:00 to 8:00 pm.
The location is Shelter #2 at the Marengo Ridge Conservation Area, 2411 IL-23, Marengo, IL 60152. It’s on the east side of Route 23, between River Road on the south and Collins Road on the north.
There’s construction on Rt 23 going north. So if driving from Huntley or south, there’s an alternate route: take Route 176 to Deerpass Rd, the first major road east of Route 23. North on Deerpass to River Road, west on River Road back to Route 23, and then north on Route 23 for the final bit to Marengo Ridge. (Map consultation suggested, since the detour signs take you back to Rt 14 / Harvard.)
