Alumni and friends of WLC, avoid the hassle of traffic, cost of tolls and gas, and just sit back and enjoy a coach bus to Chicago's Magnificent Mile on Saturday, November 18. There will be two pick up locations – one in Fond du Lac and the other at WLC.

If you’re choice for pick up is in Fond du Lac, our Badger Bus will pick you up at the Park and Ride located at Exit 97 off of Hwy 41. Please arrive by 7:45 a.m. to ensure you’re settled in for the bus departure at 8 a.m.

The second pickup location will be at WLC – specifically, the REX parking lot located at 8725 West Wisconsin Avenue in Milwaukee. Please arrive by 8:45 a.m. and park your car in WLC’s new Parking Center. The entrance to the Parking Center is just to the east of the REX parking lot. The bus will depart from WLC at 9 a.m.

Every passenger will also receive a bag with light snacks and a beverage to enjoy on the bus. The bus driver will drop passengers off on North Rush Street, between East Superior Street and East Ontario Street in Chicago (just one block west of the Magnificent Mile – as buses cannot drop off on Michigan Avenue).  

Don’t be late! The bus will depart Chicago at 8 p.m. from the same location as where you were dropped off. The first stop will be back at WLC around 9:45 p.m. The final stop of the night in Fond du Lac is expected at approximately 10:45 p.m.

The cost is just $30, and includes a round trip coach bus ticket to/from Chicago for the day, as well as a donation to benefit WLC’s general scholarship fund.

If you have any questions regarding the Chicago trip, contact Denise Terrell ’99 in the alumni relations office at 414.443.8823 or denise.terrell@wlc.edu.
