September 17 E-News
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the final Food Truck Round Up of the season and our Patriot Day Ceremony. These events are a great reminder of the strength and spirit of our community, from coming together over good food and music to honoring the lives lost on September 11.
There are more opportunities to stay connected in the coming weeks. On Saturday, September 20, the Des Plaines Fire Department will host its annual Open House at Fire Station 63. This hands-on event offers a look at life as a firefighter and is a great outing for families.
The following weekend, on Saturday, September 27, join members of Bike & Walk Des Plaines for the 10th annual Community Bike Ride. This free event takes place on the Des Plaines River Trail, starting at Camp Ground Road Woods (entrance at E. Algonquin Rd. and Joseph Schwab Rd.). New this year, participants can also choose to take a scenic walk along the trail instead of biking.
Looking ahead to October, we invite you to Harvest Hoot, a fall celebration with seasonal fun for all ages. Details on these events can be found below.
In the meantime, please share this e-news with your family, friends, and neighbors, and encourage them to subscribe. If I can be of assistance to you, please feel free to contact me at 847-391-5301 or [email protected].
Yours in service,
