Located in Wheaton, Ill., this sprawling, 500-acre park is where
families wander through nature, get lost in history, play golf at an
award-winning course, attend a big band concert, tag monarch
butterflies, make a snow globe, take classes, introduce children to the
age-old custom of afternoon tea, attend a wide variety of special
programs and events --in short, spend quality time together.
In
addition to vast formal gardens and picnic and camping grounds, Cantigny
offers two history-rich museums: the pride inducing
First Division Museum (Army)
and the insightful Robert R. McCormick Museum ... both
fascinating for children and researchers alike.
