As our winter continues and the hints of spring are bringing lots of rain showers, we have some concerns about the May 1st President's tour.  We have planned a modified version of last year's tour with an eventual stop at the wonderful Tony's Butt Shack in Hollowayville, IL.  After all, our president John Semenek loves smoking meats and as Tony's motto states, "EVERY BUTT LOVES  A RUB", right?

 A planned stop along the Illinois River is currently inaccessible due to flooding (before this week's additional rain).  We still plan to hit the twisties in Starved Rock State Park and the sweet curves and drive on Cemetery Road along the I & M canal.

 We will start in St. Charles with optional breakfast at SYRUP, no reservations taken and very popular so recommend arrive no later than 8:30.  Drivers' meeting will be in the adjacent parking lot at the Kane County Branch Court and Circuit Clerk at 10am.
