Greetings Adventurers!
If you\\\'re looking to tease the season,
Please, check out info below and on the Event page.

I started this event 5 years ago, knowing how
Richly historic our area is. Not only architecturally,
with stunning homes & mansions, but the detailed
Past and its other-worldly connections are fascinating.

Elgin has a mansion built ON TOP of its 1st cemetery!
We visit it! Many ... experiences there during the tour!
The tour has been profiled in both Courier News &
the Daily Herald, and featured on several radio stations.

It\\\'s the Bee\\\'s Knees, Sugarplum!

In coordination with Elgin\\\'s Preservation Month,
Books at Sunset & the Fox Valley Model T Ford Club present a Sunday afternoon in the rumble seat!
Fedora or other Great Gatsby gear-Grab your suspenders jump into a vintage model T as a guide takes you on a driving tour adventure of Elgin\\\'s 1920\\\'s and 30\\\'s.

Experience the dark, soaring architecture of an award-winning Elgin landmark, featuring a prohibition favorite, the Ghost Elevator. Whisper secret codes for passage into a long-gone speakeasy and savor Bathtub Lemonade (with a little splash from a paper bag surprise) as sax jazz haunts the air.

Enjoy the rhythm rush from young flapper dancers & smile as the sun streams into this 1927 treasure, that once was the classiest speakeasy in the northeast burbs.

Ragtime Picnic with white wicker chairs & a little lawn croquet near a babbling brook wrap your Sunday afternoon. So pull on the pearls or maybe a bow tie…. and take a chance on the past!
Very limited seating. Capacity for only 24 time travelers.
Must register for event location & details. 847-888-1860
