From May 14-20, Cantigny Park will provide free parking days for Wheaton residents in honor of Preservation Month. Just show proof of Wheaton residency at the parking booth for admittance. A valid driver’s license is preferred. Museums, gardens, and other attractions inside the park are always free admission.

Cantigny Park, part of the Chicago-based Robert R. McCormick Foundations, is the 500-acre estate of Robert R. McCormick (1880-1955), longtime editor and publisher of the Chicago Tribune. It is home to 30 acres of spectacular gardens, the McCormick House, the First Division Museum, and a spectacular 27-hole golf course. All are open to the public. The Robert R. McCormick Museum was listed on the Wheaton Register of Historic Places in 2011 by the City of Wheaton Historic Commission. For more information, visit www.Cantigny.org or call 630-668-5161.
