I'm in and @Rub, we've been doing the Schaumburg Weber restaurant on Friday evening the last 2 years. I'm sure we can get some WKC'rs there again this year.

@zavod44 @Scott Zee @Shoestringshop @Kneab or anyone else in the Chi-town area...  can someone address @Mongeese's questions?

My kiddos (9 year old & 11 year old) were with me last year... they swam in Brian's pool all day, and can't wait to come back this year.  Hoping to make that happen.

My kids should be coming this year also. They have had a blast the last two years. They ask about going next year before we are even out of Brian's neighborhood.
As far as camping goes I am not sure what is close by around there.

I just looked up campgrounds near Brian's.
I found Paul Wolff Campground and Camp Tomo-Chi-Chi Knolls. I have not been to either of these but they are close by and may be a good place to start.

Okay there has been a slight change of plans but never fear, it's going to be as good if not better.  So as you know the last few years this meetup has gotten bigger and bigger.  My cousin and WKC member @No1Agent (John) has agreed to host.  His yard is much, much bigger and will facilitate the grills and people much better.  Sometimes we need to change a little to take it to the next level.  He's got a huge space and a huge fire pit, we can take the party deep into the night.  Now that being said the new location is only five minutes from here.  For the the guys that have been to my house, you know my house is five minutes east of Randall Road, It will now be held five minutes west of Randall.  All your hotels can be the exact same.  Everyone will travel the same distance, and I'm telling you once you see this space you will agree. 

I hope everyone will still attend and show John the same love you always showed me.  As I said my yard was starting to get a little small and this was a decision that had to be made to make sure the meet up keeps getting better and better.  I hope to see all the great people there that came here.  See you in July....

Sounds good Brian. I'm worried about one thing though.  Are you going to be able to get all your sweet grills over there by the end of July?
