We'll be posting the names as soon as we've contacted the winners (it's nice to make sure they hear it from us). Sometimes there is a delay in drawing the winners because we're waiting for a few more raffle prizes to come in (as was the case this year). We like to make sure we have all of the prizes on hand when we contact the winners. We just drew the raffle winners names at the end of last week.

I was surprised to read above that the winners would be drawn "next week" from June 19, when the the ticket I have says that winners will be drawn the week of June 15. And Mena's web site isn't working now. Are the raffle winners’ names going to be posted?

I feel like over the past few years we have worked to increase the amount of stuff we have had for kids based on feedback we had gotten from people in the neighborhood. In fact I think the Family Stage was really great this year because we had someone who really know about kid-friendly entertainment do all of the programming. But any additional input is always helpful. Feel free to hit me up on my email here at jcox@andersonville.org. And here is a great blog post that someone wrote about what her kids did at the festival - http://chiilmama.blogspot.com/2009/06/swede-times-in-chicagos-andersonville.html Kris – I am always be happy to talk to people about ideas for more family-friendly activities.

That interactive display was a special deal to promote the USA Olympic basketball team before the Olympics in China last year. But we will be having a climbing wall and inflatables for the kids in our Family Area, as well as other activities! Sorry, I don’t think there will be basketball hoops again.
