This good-looking crew got together last Friday morning at the Cook County Historical Museum and exchanged more than pleasantries. Each of the three checks shown above was for $1,000 (one from each organization) “to help with our new military exhibit that opens on Friday, May 26,” said Cook County Historical Society Museum Director Carrie McHugh. The exhibit is titled, “On The Line: A Military History of Cook County.” “We will be open every day during the Memorial Day weekend in honor of the new exhibit: Friday – Sunday 11 a.m.- 4 p.m. and Monday 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. Pictured from L-R: Erin Swenson-Klatt (Historical Society), Bob Mattson (American Legion), Carrie McHugh (museum director), Ben Silence (Sons of the American Legion), and Janet Breithaupt (American Legion Auxiliary).
