“Beautiful amazing and a memorable visit. We drove through the main path and it was absolutely jaw dropping beautiful. I stopped at big rock and walked the wood chipped path crossing paths with lots of birds, butterflies and squirrels. Big rock is definitely something to see and to read the story of why this big rock is in the middle of the forest. I sure wish I had more time to visit but next time I’ll plan on staying a bit longer and walk the trails. Admission is $25 for adults, Seniors $19, small children and infants are free. If you are a active duty military member or family of an active duty service member admission is free and the whole car is free meaning everyone in the car is free, you just have to show valid military ID.”
“We are so grateful to have had our wedding at the Nineteenth Century Charitable Association (NCCA)! Woody and his team were wonderful to work with - from first touring the venue to clean-up the morning after. Set in the beautiful neighborhood of Oak Park, the NCCA is surrounded by community parks and historic homes by Frank Loyd Wright. We also had easy access to the local hotel to host our guests overnight. This wedding venue is reasonably priced with true historic charm. The food and beverages were excellent. We held our ceremony/cocktail hour on the first floor and reception on the second floor, comfortably accommodating our guest count of 175 people. Woody is responsive and flexible. He is willing to support creative endeavors to make your wedding feel original. We feel so fortunate to have found the NCCA to host our wedding - we would absolutely recommend it to you!”

“Please understand that Free masonry and the Shriners are not what they used to be 50 years ago. The reason why so many influential men are and were Freemasons From Walt Disney to Colonel Sanders is because Freemasonry used to really help you get ahead in the world.. As the decline of new memberships started the standard of being a Mason also decreased as well out of desperation for members. There’s so many people in here and they don’t even know why they are. It’s something to do In your spare time if you don’t really have friends, but it’s not gonna get you anywhere… Don’t believe me? Talk to Mason yourself and do not be afraid to question their answer Of why they joined Freemasonry and what they got out of it”
“It's a beautiful site to visit and you can get everything you need there for the day. I go there on Sundays for the speaker meeting and the breakfast beforehand and I always leave with food for the soul because you only get to live one day at a time.”

“Great place to start gymnastics. We have younger children that started gymnastics with TriStar in spring and by end of summer they are able to do many new things like cart wheels, flips and climbing ropes and other skills on equipment with assistance. I'm not looking to make my children competitive gymnasts but give them opportunities to try something and get some skills. I think the staff here do an excellent job and connect really well with the kids.Location is an old former warehouse so it is a bit remote and sketchy, building is dusty sometimes cold or hot because it is a huge space.”

“The Motorist Assurance Program website is an incredibly helpful resource, especially for first-time car owners or anyone learning how to handle vehicle maintenance on their own. It clearly explains what to expect from a repair shop and what information you should receive to make informed decisions.
I shared this site with my teenage daughter after she bought her first car, and it gave her the confidence to walk into a shop knowing what’s fair and what to look out for when I am not available to accompany her to appointments. It’s great peace of mind for both of us!”
“Great store but the customers need to realize they are customers and not bosses and save the bossing for your loved ones because people outside of your home don't have to put up with you”
