Melesina Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 The next FDR Chicago Meetup is this Saturday, August 2nd, at 2:00 p.m. We'll be meeting at Cassava, 3338 N. Clark St., Chicago. If you plan to attend, please RSVP at http://www.meetup.com/Freedomain-Radio/Chicago-IL/1182182/, so we'll know how many tables/seats we need to reserve. Look forward to seeing everyone!
Anjin-san Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Thanks, Millie. I joined the Meetup group, and just RSVPd. What El line do I take from downtown, and what's the best stop to get off at? I'm coming in from the 'burbs on the Metra. Thanks, looking forward to meeting everyone!

I'm coming in from the 'burbs on the Metra. Thanks, looking forward to meeting everyone! Metra runs two lines near the venue; the Union Pacific North Line (UP-N) and the Union Pacific Northwest Line (UP-NW), both of which stop at the Clybourn Station at 2001 N. Ashland Ave. which is 1.95 miles from Cassava's. Here's a Metra link with the details: Metra System Map: Clyborn Station. Hope that helps and look forward to meeting you, too!
Melesina Posted August 2, 2014 Author Posted August 2, 2014 Today's the day for the next Chicago FDR Meetup! The details are in the post above. RSVP at http://www.meetup.com/Freedomain-Radio/Chicago-IL/1182182/. See you there!
Anjin-san Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 Thanks, Millie. I'll be coming in on a different line, so it looks like I'll be walking a couple blocks from Union Station to the Brown Line, and getting off at Belmont - not the most interactive of maps, though (imagine that from a gov't website). See you as close to 2:00 as the system allows!
Anjin-san Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 Well, crud... missed the asterisk to the tiny footnote that said no weekend service at my station... found out from a jogger, and the parking at the next station was so inaccessible, I missed the train there by about 2 minutes If you get this in time, how late do you all hang out? Next train is at 2:00, so I wouldn't get there until probably 4:00.

Had a great Chicago FDR Meetup on Saturday, August 2nd, with 9 in attendance!

BenJ Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 Hey guys, just curious if anyone here is from the central Illinois area like Bloomington or Peoria, or is everyone up near Chicago proper?
