I should be ashamed to admit that I didn’t know much about the South Side even though I was born and raised here prior to becoming Your South side Resource.  In addition to reading books to gain knowledge, I am seeking out tours and other events to educate myself .

I joined the Windy City Tours group on a Jackson Park on Saturday August21, 2010.  Headed by Joe Steffan, we learned about The World’s Columbian Exposition of 1893, Osaka Garden and a host of other interesting facts.  Since much of the information  escapes me right now, here are a few photos to fill in the blanks.

Enjoy!
