Meeting Schedule

About our new meeting location: The Community Room is on the second floor of the Morton Grove Civic Center, 6140 Dempster Street, Morton Grove, IL, 60053. The Civic Center has plenty of free parking in the lot in front of the building, and an elevator to the second floor Community Room. Thanks to Mark Matz for making the connection, and he seems to think some of you will be interested in this tidbit: The American Legion Bar is open on Friday nights to 11 p.m. -- we start at 7 -- and we can get "to-go" drinks there if we desire during our meetings. (The bar is located on the same floor, just down the hall from our meeting room.) Photos of the new meeting space below.
