Chicago Meet up

[Jordan]

Evening all, As I posted in my other thread I'm going to be in the Chicago area from the 27th April until the 4th May.

I've been in sporadic contact with @Mikilt and have decided on a meet up in St Charles on the evening of Sunday the 3rd of May. Who all fancies it?

I dont know where it will be, I know there is a big tent with a bar and food at the Pheasant Run Resort where I will be staying for the pipe show but I don't know anywhere else so suggestions are very welcome.

Other than that my current itinerary is:

Arrive Monday Afternoon 27th.
Sightseeing/ exploring Tuesday + wednesday. I've been trying to arrange a visit to a local lodge while I'm in town but it isn't going well so any contacts would be appreciated.

Thursday travel to St Charles.
Thursday- sunday afternoon Chicagoland International Pipe & Tobacciana Show.

Meet up sunday night?

Monday fly home.



I believe @Mikilt has been in touch with a few of the locals for Sunday but if anyone else is in the area and wants to come say hi or even just has anymore recommendations for things to do/see then feel free to add them.

EDIT: To add, I've been in contact with the organiser of the Pipe show and we can meet in the smoking tent with no problems if that is whats decided.

There are a couple of options in St. Charles, but it's probably easiest if we meet at Pheasant Run.

I don't mind, I'm willing to travel a bit. Just depends if everyone 's happy meeting in a hotel full of pipe smokers.

[Mikilt]

There's a place I've been before in St Charles called McNally's. They'd also love to have us.

Sounds good, I'll go with the consensus.
