Red Line Double Header | Tuesday, July 30
We took on two baseball parks in one day for our “Redline Double Header”. We took folks on a tour of Wrigley Field and enjoyed a scenic rooftop lunch. Over on the southside, folks enjoyed music, food and drinks in a special event suite during a Chicago White Sox game against the KC Royals.
