Visit to Beverly Shores Summerfest (tentative date)

in 2025, after a morning of rain, i decided to cancel our group's participation in the Beverly Shores Summerfest. the Summerfest was still held, with diminished attendance, and 3-4 people from our group went individually, but we didn't attend as a group.

we'll look forward to better results in 2026.

dear friends--

i invite you to join us at the annual Beverly Shores Summerfest, with a silly but cute parade, food and drink booths set up at the beach, and live entertainment.

the Association of Beverly Shores Residents organizes the Summerfest. it's way too early to know what next year's theme will be, but i'll announce it when available.

there is no fee or registration for this event, but bring along some cash for the refreshment booths at the beach.

we will park at the train station, then walk up Broadway, and meet as a group at the southwest corner of Broadway & Marne, to view the parade together, then proceed up Broadway to the Lake.

you may use the restrooms at the Depot, or at the Marathon station, before walking toward the beach, or at Lakeview Beach down at the lakefront when you get there.

arrive for parking at 1:30 CT; 2:30 ET

if you arrive late, just walk north on Broadway to the festival and look for us. to recognize me if we haven't met, i will be wearing a faded blue hat that says "GREECE" on it. you may also call me at 773-415-0428.

hope to see you there,

Rick
