Ravinia 2025 Issue 1

Since our first date at Ravinia (in 1952), my wife and I have been concertgoers all of our married life. My parents used to go to Ravinia all the time, and then they passed away, we arranged to have a garden put in. Our grandson met his wife at Ravinia, and he went to the garden to propose to her. Ravinia has been a part of our life for four generations, and a very important one.
