SUMMARY:Hike Registration Open
DESCRIPTION:NOW TAKING RESERVATIONS FOR THE NEXT “FREEDOM TRAIL HIKE\,” set for Saturday\, June 29\, 2024 from 10 am to 12:30 pm. \nThe Little Calumet River Underground Railroad Project Presents \n“Hike the Freedom Trail” \nJune 29 – 10 am to 12:30pm \nJoin us for a fascinating tale of the hundreds -perhaps thousands- of escaped slaves / “Freedom Seekers” that came through our region prior to the Civil War\, who often found refuge and replenishment from local abolitionists\, one being the Jan Ton family who owned a farm near Beaubien Woods Forest Preserve on the Little Calumet River. We will tour and hear engrossing stories about the historic era before the Civil War. \nThe focus of the Hike is educating the tour attendee about the Underground Railroad history in the Calumet region. \nProfessor Larry McClellan\, foremost authority on the Underground Railroad in Northern Illinois\, and Tom Shepherd of the Little Calumet River Underground Railroad Project will be narrators for this Hike/tour. \nThe narrated tour & hike will depart from the Beaubien Woods boat launch and will last approximately 2 hours. \nRoughly 134th at the Little Calumet Riverfront (see map) \nhttps://www.google.com/maps/place/Beaubien+Woods/@41.6500356\,-87.58318\,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x46ae63f2eac81bb9!8m2!3d41.6500356!4d-87.58318
