Default FunFest Leaving from Northern Burbs / Chicago

I have a Caravan of about 10 cars going to FunFest on Thursday 9/19 leaving from Chicagoland Northern Burbs. We will be taking 53 S. / 355 to I 80 E to 57. I plan on leaving about 8 am. If anyone would like to join us we will probably meet at Brunch Cafe in Fox River Grove ( 22 and 14 ) at about 6:30 for breakfast.

We went last year. It is a fun event. Can tour some of the factory, lot of scheduled seminars, vendors present, watch installs of all kinds. Worth the trip!
