Today, April 7, is the final day for registration by 5 p.m. Space is limited. You may register over the phone by calling 217-896-2455 and contacting Pam Leiter. Enrollment per child is $5 fee and there is no admission fee to enter Lake of the Woods Forest Preserve or the Botanical Garden. So, look around and see what else you can find.
