We've finalized the location for our July 25th Social Hour event. We'll be meeting at the Ram Restaurant & Brewery, located at 1901 McConnor Pkwy in Schaumburg. For those familiar with the area, McConnor Pkwy is the street that runs north from Golf Rd (just west of 53) past IKEA. The Ram is about a block north of Golf on the left (west) side of the street.

We'll be meeting in the Counselor's Row Room, which is at the front of the restaurant to the right of the entrance.
Event details remain the same: Networking begins at 6p, Presentation on Leave No Child Inside begins at 7p. The Ram Restaurant & Brewery has been kind enough to provide the room for us at no charge, so please bring your appetite for good food and drink and satisfy both prior to the presentation.
Please join us...and invite a friend or two!!

July 25th Social Hour event
Hi all...hope everyone's summer is going well. We're back on track again with a Social Hour event lined up for Wed., July 25th. We'll be in the Schaumburg area, though the exact location is yet to be finalized. As usual, we'll plan on starting the networking at 6p, with a presentation to begin at 7p.
This month, we'll be featuring Martha (Marty) Kenahan as our guest. Marty is with Chicago Wilderness, and is the Regional Coordinator for the Leave No Child Inside initiative. I'm excited to have Marty joining the group to tell us more about this recently launched initiative. Here's a bit of detail:
A growing body of scientific evidence is demonstrating how important direct contact with the outdoors is to healthy childhood development. Structured and unstructured playtime in nature can help combat such health issues as ADHD and child obesity while promoting creativity and cognitive functioning.
To address this issue, Chicago Wilderness is launching Leave No Child Inside, a multi-year initiative designed to promote children's health and foster generations of children that care enough about nature to protect it. One of the greatest gifts you can give your children is to share your love of nature: Enjoying the outdoors with them is fun, healthy, and a great way to spend quality time with your family.
More details can be found at the LNCI website: www.kidsoutside.info.
Stay tuned for details on the specific location. And as always, feel free to pass the word on to friends and associates you think would be interested in the event.
