Oaklee's Family Guide Fall 2015 | страница 4

Fall Features and Advertisers Dear Readers, The days may be getting shorter, but the heat and humidity of summer are gone, making Fall one of the best seasons in Chicago. Fall means harvest time in the Midwest, and we have information on apple picking (pages 34-35), pumpkin patches (pages 20-22), fall festivals (pages 6-15) and all sorts of Halloween fun (pages 24-33). We’re trying something new in this issue. Each week, we’re having a sweepstakes drawing to give away a fun new product. Look at the ads throughout our book and click on the link each week to enter for your chance to win. Don’t forget to sign up for our newsletter, too, so you can get the latest info on family fun and participate in our subscriber-only giveaways. Now that the kids are back in school and have outgrown last year’s clothes, check out our section on local Resales (pages 36-39). These events provide a great way to save money on clothes, baby items and even holiday toys, books and gifts, and also help raise funds for local mom’s clubs. You can earn money for your gently used clothing and children’s items by being a vendor or volunteering at one of the events. If you’ve got a little one that is ready for preschool, find the right fit from our Schools and Childcare section (pages 52-53). You’ll also find a link to our blog: Is Your Toddler Ready for Preschool? When the weather turns cooler and you’re ready to head indoors, check out our section on local Museums (pages 40-41) and upcoming Performances (pages 68-70). We hope we’ve given you plenty of ideas and opportunities to Go Make Memories! Nancy Stevens Owner and Founder OAKLEE’S FALL ISSUE GIVEAWAYS!
