PLAN YOUR TRIP TO CHICAGO FOR THE

6th ANNUAL ALL DRUM CORPS ALUMNI PICNIC

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2015
11:00 am to 5:30 pm

Place:    Fox River Forest Preserve         
             (1st Pavilion upon entering…on right) – LARGE PAVILION
             28034 W Roberts Rd, (Barrington) (Some GPSs use 28500)
             Port Barrington, IL (1 mile West of Route 59 on Roberts Road –      
             north of Route 22) - South side of street…map will follow)

The same location as last year has been secured. This beautiful and large facility on the Fox River is kept very clean, has modern indoor restroom facilities, many electrical outlets, BBQ grills and a fireplace.

Picnic tables and benches are provided at the grove…however, you are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets (and a pop-up canopy if you wish).

There will be NO FEE to anyone for the picnic. However, there will be a monetary raffle, since expenses are incurred in acquiring the pavilion, etc. Your participation will be appreciated by the organizing team!

Bring your own food and drinks (liquor IS allowed on the premises). All liquids must be in plastic or aluminum containers…no glass please. (Upon cleanup of the last picnic, I found glass bottles…if we want to continue having the picnics in this beautiful grove, we need to follow their rules)! If you would like to barbecue, grills are provided at the pavilion, but you will need to bring your own charcoal.

There is still a lot of time to form an ensemble, duet, etc. for entertainment. We already have a commitment from JOBE Third Coast to perform again. We are anxious to hear from other corps. How about some of you Madison Scouts, Vanguards, Imperials, Kilties, etc. form an ensemble to perform at the picnic?!

Please contact Adrianne at adigirl48@sbcglobal.net if you are planning to perform at the picnic, so that we can fit you in the schedule.

This event has drawn interest from our East and West Coast drum corps friends who have been following our Facebook posts. I now have representatives who will be distributing flyers to their corps.

If you should have any questions, please contact a committee member (or me, preferably via e-mail).

Drum corpsally yours,
Adrianne (Adi) Kaplan
