Depart & Return: LaGrange County Public Library We will travel to the Grosse Point Lighthouse in Evanston IL. It was built in 1873 by the US Government as the lead lighthouse marking the approach to Chicago. The peninsula where it stands was named Grosse Point by early French explorers and traders in the 17th century. Enjoy some free time and have lunch on your own at Navy Pier. The 3,300-foot-long pier opened in 1916. Originally known as the "Municipal Pier" but renamed Navy Pier in 1927 to honor the naval veterans who served in World War I, it encompasses over 50 acres of parks, gardens, shops, restaurants, and family attractions. This afternoon, experience breathtaking views of Chicago from the water! We will explore Chicago’s gorgeous shores with a leisurely trip around Lake Michigan on the Tall Ship Windy, Chicago’s official Tall Ship. Windy is a 148-foot masted gaff topsail schooner and has all the character and charm of the great Age of Sail. Windy is the first certified four-masted traditional sailing vessel built in the U.S.A. since 1921. Constructed of steel, combined with wooden booms, gaffs, and deck ornamentation, she has three spacious decks with seating, a grand salon and galley. Don’t miss a chance to sail on an authentic tall ship and crew while sailing in a safe and protected waterway. Click here for a registration form, or pick one up at any library branch.
