Went on an organized bird walk arranged thru the Dupage Birding Club…read more This is a secured area so you will need your Real ID or Passport to enter at the guard station. They will give you a map if you ask so you get a better layout of the area. There are designated areas for visitors and YOU MUST stay in those areas. Trails are marked but not very well mowed so expect to walk in ankle deep grass. Bring bug spray. Park by the red barn as there is a circular trail along the water..but keep going left to stay in the trail. You can also park near the Bison Field and walk on the path to see the Bison located on the main road. The Science Center has limited hours so check the website for info. We did not go into the Center. If you are into birding or nature,take a visit to Fermilab.

I Highly Recommend!…read more I've had nothing but a wonderful experience with Greenlight Driving School in Batavia. Jordan, the instructor, truly goes above and beyond for his students. He's patient, calm, and explains everything in a way that makes you feel confident and supported behind the wheel. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping his students become safe, skilled drivers not just rushing them through lessons and always gives you feedback. Every session has been professional, encouraging, and honestly just a pleasant experience overall. If you're looking for a driving school that actually invests in you and takes the time to make sure you feel comfortable, Greenlight Driving School is the place to go!

Our son has been going to SOR for 2 years. The regional manager Brandy Boska walked into the co. 6m…read moreago with zero customer service edicate! I expressed some conncern when I learned about a Manger leaving. I talked to her about some concerns of personal growth for our son and she had disregarded all of it as well you want this then you have to pay. Last week I was trying to work with the on site manager about maybe trying to have our son work with a teacher who can flip flop weeks through the month to teach piano and drums. As other students have been able to do this. Next thing I get is an email - we no longer want your business basically because they didn't like constructive criticism of suggestions from a loyal paying customer wanting to grow their child's musical talents. When I called the office the manager tried telling me its because I yelled at teachers on multiple occasions. Lie! I have gone in only speaking with the manager and with kindness but expressed some frustration. I was told she will get back to me as things are changing around here. So my 12 yr old son who was exited to start a new band, instead I had to be tell him that the school of rock terminated our business! Wow terminated a customer because they don't want to provide accommodations! Last time I checked a stong business goes above beyond to accommodate a customer or to talk about options to assist. Nope not the Geneva nor Schaumburg location. I guess getting too rich too fast to care about word of mouth goes far! Becareful customers!

Such a great staff! My son has a great voice, but zero confidence and the teachers and staff at…read moreSOR Geneva have been so supportive. They are allowing him to move at his own pace and he is absolutely loving it. They give him the most sincere guidance and praise which is motivating him to work harder. Ms. Char, his voice teacher, is absolutely the bomb! She sings like an angel. The format is geared to opening up their mind to their own inner creativity so they can soar. While the format is the same at all the schools, I feel the staff here is more knowledgeable and professional than the other SOR's we've visited.

I have danced at ASA for 5 years and I love it here. I don't know where I would be without ASA ( a…read morestep above dance academy). I don't now if I would be dancing and I am very happy to be at ASA because I have grown so much as a dancer and as a person. I have done amazing at all my competitions with my solos, duets and groups. I feel like Shannon ( the director and owner of ASA) really spends as much time back stage as possible so I can go on stage feeling confident in what I put on that stage. I love ASA.
