We’re looking for the Seven Wonders of Mount Prospect!
What is it in Mount Prospect that you think is really amazing? What do you think is a wonder of our suburban world? The Mount Prospect Historical Society wants to know. We are looking for nominations for the Seven Wonders (past and present) of Mount Prospect this year and we would like to hear from you.
If you have an idea of something you would like to nominate, fill out a form explaining what it is you would like to nominate, why you think it is a wonder, and return this form to the Historical Society (Seven Wonders C/O The Mount Prospect Historical Society 101 S. Maple Street Mount Prospect, IL 60056). The forms can be picked up at The Historical Society, The Mount Prospect Public Library or Village Hall; or you can download one here. You can nominate a building, a park, a business, a person, an organization or pretty much anything you think is a wonder in the community. We will accept nominations until May 15th.
When all the submissions have been gathered, we will set up spaces for the community to vote by making donations to support their choice around the village. Funds raised through this project will be used to support the Mount Prospect Historical Society’s work to preserve community history. The winners will be the seven wonders that raise the most through donations and will be announced at our Back to School Bash at Bogie’s on August 22, 2008.
