Plan ahead to join us on Wednesday, June 10 from 7-8 pm! Have you heard the story of the Indianapolis 500 driver who lived in Flossmoor? Or the soap opera star with roots in Flossmoor? Or Flossmoor’s connection to the famous Chicago Tribune “Dewey Defeats Truman” headline? Or where the vote to incorporate Flossmoor was held—and Homewood’s Gottschalk family’s ties to Flossmoor?

Join Flossmoor Veterans’ Memorial’s Kris Condon for a sneak peek at some tales from her new book, scheduled for publication later this year. We’ll celebrate Flossmoor’s 102nd birthday with some sweet treats as well. Copies of Kris’s first book, Fragments of Flossmoor, will be available for purchase, with all proceeds benefiting the Veterans’ Wall of Honor project.
