Evanston Day in Springfield March 7, Register Today!

Posted on Thursday Feb 09, 2012

The City of Evanston and Northwestern University invite you, your neighbors and/or colleagues to attend the 3rd Annual Evanston Day in Springfield on March 7th, 2012. This will be an opportunity for you as well as elected officials, business, civic, education and religious leaders, local media and Evanston residents to go to Springfield to have our voices heard on issues of importance to Evanston.

The city will again rent a bus to take the delegation to Springfield. The bus will leave Evanston around 7:00 AM from Ryan Field and arrive in Springfield in time for lunch at the Governor’s Mansion. There will be meetings with legislative leaders in the afternoon. The group will head back to Evanston around 5:00 PM with a simple dinner on the bus.

Participants are urged to join us on the bus for the trip to Springfield. The cost will be $60 per person, as it was last year, and includes the bus trip, lunch and dinner.

You will find the Evanston Day sign up sheet here>>> to reserve space for you and your colleagues/neighbors on the bus. For more information regarding Evanston Day in Springfield 2012 or to reserve your space, please contact the City of Evanston's Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator Matt Swentkofske at 847/859-7835 or email him at mswentkofske@cityofevanston.org.

Please plan on joining Northwestern University and the City of Evanston to let your voice be heard in Springfield!
