All of you out-of-towners....AND...all of you IN-towners. I'd like to organize a group cruise from the Holiday Inn in Joliet (host hotel) up to Heidt's facility in Wauconda for the factory tour. Could be a lot of fun with a large group.......think of it as Power Tour Chicago style!!

Depart Holiday Inn (host hotel) at about 1:15pm

Best route:

I-55 North to I-355 North
I-355 North to Lake Cook Rd.
Lake Cook Rd (also marked as E. County Line Rd) west to Rand Rd. (Rte. 12)
Rand Rd. (Rte. 12) north to County Hwy 61 (W. Bonner Rd)
County Hwy 61 east to Old Rand Rd.
Old Rand Rd south to Kerry Ln, take a left
Heidt's is at 111 Kerry Ln. in Wauconda

If anyone has any options to this, please chime in......like " Don't go that way dumazz there is construction on that road " LOL

Google maps show this route as 68 miles. With a 1hr/25min. drive time. Realistically, I'd say an 1hr/45min. drive as this is on a Friday afternoon.

This leaves many places for people to join in at any point.
