MG Mid Summer Party
July 7, 2018
Slot racing with car guys, with a day at the beach!

Come join an MG Mid Summer party Saturday July 7th from 1pm to 5pm at the home of Scott Fohrman and Judy Carmona at 637 Sheridan Square in South Evanston. This year, we’ll provide the desserts and beer. Feel free to bring anything you would like to lunch on and we’ll have the grill hot and space in the fridge.

Plan to explore the 100 year old house which has been undergoing restoration for now 12 years. Find a place to relax with MG friends in the house or on the roof deck and enjoy the day. Or, our house is less than 1/2 a block from Evanston’s South Ave. beach. The large soft sand beach remains fairly shallow and you can walk far into Lake Michigan, making the water warmer (usually) and fun for non-swimmer to get wet. Admission to the beach is $8 for adults and $6 for kids under 12. Plenty of room for changing and showering at the beach or at the house.

Not sure if the slot track will be operational, but if so, there will be racing on a 4 lane 18 x 8 foot slot racing track that criss-crosses the table 4 times. The track features huge elevation changes, silly scenery (look for the nude sun bathers or the teens overturning the outhouse) and with drinking and race driving allowed.

We have off street parking behind the house via the alley/driveway to the west side of the house. Last year we had 10 cars and weren’t full. If full, park on Sheridan Square which has a 2-hour time limit (remind me when you come in to give you a parking permit which eliminates that problem). You can also park on Sheridan Road or anywhere west of Sheridan Road in the quiet neighborhood to the west.

Would appreciate an RSVP even if it’s last minute so we know how much deliciousness and beer to buy. Please call Scott with any question on his cell @ 847 212-9388. Hopefully it will be “cooler by the lake”! Look forward to seeing you!
