Calling all moms and kids of any age for a picnic in the park. We will meet on the northeast corner of Grand and Lake Shore Dr. (you can see it on your right as you are leaving Navy Pier). It is technically Pfc Milton Olive Park, according to Google Maps. Bring a blanket and a lunch for you and your little ones. We will be in the grassy, shaded area.

***Note*** Some people have mentioned they were unable to find us. We are not down at the beach. We are actually in a grassy area just south of the beach. If you were to go under LSD at Ohio St. (where the ramp and stairs go under the road), we will be directly in front of you as you come out from the tunnel. It's where all of the bike paths collide.

Meet the Co-Chairs

Mary McGraw

My husband and I live in the Gold Coast neighborhood.  We are the proud parents of a little boy born in late 2010.  While I am not from Chicago, I'm very excited to make the city a home to my new family.  I am eager to be a part of NPN and the co-chair of the Old Town/Gold Coast group.  There are so many wonderful things to do in the city and specifically in our neighborhood.  I look forward to planning events in this area and meeting other families in the neighborhood.
