Woogms

Description

Lakeview's neighborhood family friendly march, Memorial & Labor Day at 11:00 am. All are welcome! Everybody marches, nobody watches! WOOGMS stands for Wellington Oakdale Old Glory Marching Society, a group formed 50 years ago by late Chicago PR executive Al Weisman. We march every Memorial Day and Labor Day. Everybody Marches, Nobody Watches! At 11am every Memorial Day and Labor Day we meet at the corner of Pine Grove and Wellington in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago's north side. Join your friends and neighbors as we celebrate our freedom and remember those who have served our great nation. Led by the beats of the Jesse White Drum Corps, march down Wellington, Barry, Sheridan and Diversey before finishing on the lawn of St. Joseph's Hospital. Once there enjoy the high-flying spectacle of the Jesse White Tumbling Team.
