There was plenty of outdoor fun on tap at Grayslake Summer Days on August 19-20th.  Participants enjoyed carnival games, food booths, bingo, a variety of bands, a pet and bike parade, children's entertainment, go-kart races, and a bags tournament prior to the always impressive Summer Days Parade.

Churchill, Quinn, Richtman & Hamilton sponsored the 25th Annual Grayslake 5k Run and Walk on July 16th, 2016. The Grayslake Chamber of Commerce puts in a fantastic effort every year to carry out this fun tradition. As usual, Mark Hamilton and his Chamber cohorts logged many hours behind the scenes in preparation, and Mother Nature was exceedingly kind in providing a gorgeous day for the event in the heart of downtown Grayslake.

The annual Grayslake Arts Festival is sponsored by the Grayslake Chamber of Commerce and offers attendees the opportunity to view and purchase amazing local artwork while enjoying great food, kids’ activities and live entertainment.

Partner Mark Van Donselaar recently organized a plant sale for his son’s local elementary school.  On May 6th, 2016, Meadowview Elementary School in Grayslake held its 7th Annual Plant Sale to support the school’s PTO.  Mark, an avid gardener, chaired the event which raised over $1,500 for the school.   The firm also was pleased to donate a bike for Meadowview’s recent Funfest fundraiser.
