Hello Antioch, and Happy Friday!
I hope your new year is off to a great start!
Things are already off to a busy start at Village Hall – our staff has been busy getting ready for our first Wine Walk of 2024. The Wine Walk is two weeks from tomorrow – Saturday, January 20th. Tickets are $45 per person and include roughly 30 stops with over 50 types of wine. It’s great to see so many people come to support our downtown businesses! We are expecting a large crowd (again), so make sure you get your tickets well in advance! To purchase tickets, you can: 1) Call the Antioch Parks Department at 847-395-2160, 2) Email the Antioch Parks Department at parks@antioch.il.gov, 3) Shop online at: https://secure.rec1.com/IL/village-of-antioch/catalog/index/50a643b5eaeb74a176c021e092fc9413?filter=c2VhcmNoPXdpbmU=
