Abe & Mary Todd Lincoln Played in Joliet !






And kids of all ages were able to take their picture in a penny at the Joliet Area Historical Museum Zone - where kids also learned about farm life of Lincoln's childhood with petting zoo, and special exhibit by Fair Oaks Farms!

KidzFest 2009 was a huge success despite the rain drops - great crowd!

Thank you to all who came out to play in Joliet!

Special thanks to Lewis U, AT&T and Silver Cross Hospital for making this event possible!
