Heckery Dekkery Dot Travel Game Postcards for Children thinks that Chicago is your kind of town . . . .

If you are headed to Chicago in August, you may be interested in the Grant Park Music Festival, especially if you appreciate classical music.  This is the only remaining free, outdoor classical music series in the US.  The performances which are held in the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park have been a summer tradition since 1931 when the city, determined to lift the spirits of Chicagoans during the depression, presented a series of free concerts.  The concert series has become a treasured tradition.
