Tulips, Tanks, and Good Company at Cantigny Park!!

🌷 Tulips, Tanks & Good Company at Cantigny Park

Join us for a relaxed Sunday outing at Cantigny Park in Wheaton — one of Chicagoland's most beautiful hidden gems, and right now it's putting on quite a show.

We'll wander through the stunning tulip gardens (reds, yellows, pinks, purples — the works), take a stroll past the historic tank park, and pop into the First Division Museum. The whole thing runs about 1–2 hours at an easy, leisurely pace.

Afterward, anyone who wants to keep the afternoon going is welcome to head over to Hawthorne's Backyard in West Chicago for a drink and some good conversation.

📍 Meet at the Cantigny Park main entrance / visitor parking area
🎟️ Parking fee: $16 at entrance; Recommend carpooling from Hawthorne’s
