After a fulfilling day of conference programming, conference attendees and their families joined us on a special 2 ½ hour architectural cruise on Chicago’s First Lady riverboat.
We wound our way down the Chicago River to take in the city’s legendary architecture and
history, narrated by a professionally trained architectural guide; got a taste of iconic Chicago
deep-dish pizza; and reveled in the beauty of an exciting fireworks celebration above it all. This
special boat cruise was complimentary for conference attendees and their families.
