Neat little railroad festival located in downtown Homewood Illinois. This festival runs every year…read morefor a single day during May. It is sponsored and run by the Village of Homewood. The fest has numerous train layouts and a healthy assortment of vendors selling train memorabilia. It is also a good place to get train modeling advice and ideas. This is a great fest for train buffs but even more so for kids. Bring them all for a nice day in Homewood. Tours through a real locomotive engine and caboose are also available for the whole family. Best of all..the fest and tours are free.

**Review of the 5K event only**…read more This is a nice little neighboorhood 5K. The course starts at 159th and Cicero, runs north up Cicero, trough Oak Forest on the west side of Cicero, and then back south down Cicero. It's all on the streets so there's plenty of room. Like pretty much every race ever, the final stretch is uphill, in this case the viaduct under the Metra tracks. The course support was good - water stations, well staffed race day packet pick-up. Overall it was a very well executed race. The price is on par with other 5Ks in the area ($30). You get a long-sleeve t-shirt in the goody bag and a bunch of random promotion swag from local business - pens, cups, magnets, a letter opener?. Apparently, this year you can drop another $5 for a long-sleeve dry-tech shirt which I appreciate. Dry-tech shirts get much more wear from me. I'm planning to run again this year, and maybe even stick around for the parade or some of the restaurant/ bar open houses.

During the wedding planning, their staff was incredibly professional and easy to work with. We were able to meet with them a few times on conference calls, and they were very supportive of our wedding style and what we had envisioned. Their set list is incredible and their range is so broad. Our guests danced the entire night and almost no one left the dance floor. People even cheered for an encore. I hope that we can see them again soon in festivals in Chicago. We just cannot thank you all enough for making our day so special. Cheers!

I'm surprised there's no listing yet, so I made one…read more I went to OP Brewfest 2023 and had a good time. They had 22 beer and cider vendors to choose from with a good variety of beers. They also had a booth with wine and spirits for people who like those. Food was catered by Beggars Pizza and was tasty. Pizza, beef sandwiches, sausage, pasta, pretzels, salad, etc. Bags and other games were set up around for people to play with and everyone got a complementary beer glass. It's held inside the public works main building, so the acoustics aren't excellent for the live music but overall it's a good event that didn't run too long and was a decent value.
