This is the time we get away from it all by loading the kids in the car and going somewhere. I would like to suggest you wait until the first part of August and head for Arlington Heights, Illinois. Bring the family to this years lAMFES annual meeting August 5-8. Take a working vacation (you work and they vacation). If you are worried about what they will have to while you are at the meetings just look at the Special Events Program. There are tours of the world famous Chicago Art Institute, Morton Arboretum, Haeger Pottery to see art pottery made, historic Long Grove Village, and Chicago’s "Magnificent Mile." If you come in to town before the meeting you can enjoy Major League Baseball, live theater, horse racing, two major zoos. Great America amusement park, the world’s tallest building, shopping at Woodfield one of the world’s largest shopping centers. Lake Michigan, major museums like the Museum of Science and Industry and the Field Museum of Natural History, and almost anything else. If you don’t have a chance to see everything you want to before the meeting you can take a train (yes a real train) from near the hotel to downtown during the week. Chicago is one of the world’s greatest cities and this is a great time of the year to see it. Many members have been bringing their families to the lAMFES meeting for years. Strong friendships have developed among members’ families from these meetings. My children look forward to seeing the children of other members each year. The annual meeting has become somewhat of an extended family reunion which I really enjoy seeing everyone and finding out what has happened since last year. Bring your family this year, take a few vacation days and enjoy the meeting and Chicago. I think you will enjoy it. Well, it is summer and today is a nice day so I’m going to stop this column and go fishing. See you in August! DAIRY.
