W5 D5: Chicago

We can't believe it's already the last day of camp! Our campers have done a great job, so we thought we decided to end with a fun trip to... CHICAGO!

Our stops in Chicago included: 

• Spending time with architect Katherine Darnstadt, founder of the award-winning firm Latent Design, to check our her Boombox! project at Wicker Park. 
• Visiting a couple of Millennium Park's attractions including Cloud Gate ("The Bean") and the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, designed by famous architect Frank Gehry.
• A breif break for some Chicago-style deep dish pizza
• Visiting "Nike-Lab" at Niketown- one of only two locations in North America (and seven in the world) where Nike showcases concept designs for shoes and clothing. 
• Taking a fabulous 90-minute boat tour of Chicago's water-front buildings and sky-scrapers.

It's been an amazing five weeks, and we're so proud of all that our campers, counselors, and staff members have accomplished!
