ARCC friends, please join us on Wednesday, June 15th from 3-6pm at Margate Park (Uptown) for an outdoor social! We will gather on the lawn near the Margate Park Fieldhouse (4921 N Marine Dr.), so bring your picnic blankets/lawn chairs, and the ARCC team will provide drinks/snacks. The fieldhouse has a parking lot, and is a roughly 15 minute walk from the Wilson CTA Red Line station. Around 4:45pm, we will walk to Argyle St (about a 10 minute walk) to grab food. 
 
Please RSVP at the link here, which includes pictures of the fieldhouse (ADA accessible), parking lot entrance, and lawn area (to the right of fieldhouse when facing the building). NOTE: if we have to cancel this event due to weather, the ARCC team will contact you at the email address you provide in the RSVP link by 11am on the 15th. 
 
Hope to see you there! If you have any questions/concerns, feel free to contact Shehara Waas (ARCC Community Co-Director) at sheharawaas@northwestern.edu
