hey all,
id like to invite you all to the last lemont legends crusie night of the year this wednesday night 8-27, its SPORTS/MUSCLE CAR feature night. its located on Main street in downtown lemont by the RR station. if comming from the south side, take rt83 til it turns north at archer, at the light keep going west on i have no idea what the name of the road is, but dont turn right to continue onto rt83. keep going til you get to the Y intersection, there might be a detour sign sending you to a slight left up the hill,(thoes directions in a sec) keep going on main street to the stop light thats where the show starts and goes 3-4 blocks west and 1-2 blocks north, ok if you get there like after 6ish they will close off main street and send you up a block south on Illinois street, if your in that situation, go through the stopsign about 5-6 blocks after the Y in the road, and the next street take a right once you get one block north youll be at the center of the action, find parking anywhere you can, they will angle off the cars at 6-615 and no traffic will be on main street til after 9pm so no worry of big trucks going by. anyway if you cant find parking on the street go across the rr tracks and go left and youll see the metra train parking lot, go ahead and park in there.
if comming from the city take 55 south to the lemont road exit south, take that over the big bridge, (youll know the bridge when you get there) you can either go left or right at the bottom of the bridge at illinois street, id recommend before 6pm go right after go left and follow the directions above to find parking basicly go left 1 block and first left turn you can make take it and youll end up in the center of the action and then just find somewhere to park the metra lot is across the rr tracks and to your left back under the bridge.
if you take a right at the bottom of the hill, go and loop around and take the first right you can take and find parking, there is a smaller metra lot on the south sid eof the tracks if its all full go back up and around to illinois street and follow the directions above to the bigger metra lot.
Id recommed you getting there early to get street parking on main street, early being 5ish 4 ish ive heard people getting there as early as 3ish, there are many restraunts in around the area within walking distance, "Nicks" place is a bar right on main street they have some HUGE burgers and there good too. there probably 5-5.5" diameter burgers after cooking.
anyway hope to see any and everyone out there if anyone needs more info
