Here are some best bets for the weekend ...

Family Fun

Say "goodbye" to summer at Summer Sunset Festival In Lake In The Hills, an outdoor festival Friday through Sunday. There will be tons of great activities for the whole family.

Celebrate the end of summer by joining the Illinois Railway Museum in Union for three days of fun starting Saturday!

Enjoy the holiday Monday with fresh roasted corn on the cob, a mini farmers market by Harms Farm, popcorn, and face painting at Countryside in Crystal Lake.


hunterheartArts & Entertainment
We're proud to announce that Cary resident James Iverson and his brother John's book "Hunters & Hearts" has been published and is available now. Read some background on the making of the book and more about the subject, their grandfather, here.

Starting Saturday, Chicago native Don 'Dplantmann' Guzan will have his first solo photography exhibit at the Inspired Art Studio in Cary (and during the month of September). See schedule for details.

Saturday, check out some improv presented by Green Room Theatre at the Cosman Theater in Huntley.


Food & Spirits
Congrats to the Woodstock Farmers Market for placing No. 2 in the state!

Health and Wellness
At Centegra, when women come in for a mammogram, they receive heart-healthy chocolate and a long-stem rose from Locker's Flowers in McHenry. In addition, they can enter for a chance to win two raffles that include a free manicure at Centegra Health Bridge Fitness Center and a Girlfriends Spa Weekend Getaway for two at the Eagle Ridge Resort in Galena. To schedule an appointment, call 815-334-5566 or visit centegra.org/mammo for more details.

Have a great weekend!
