Moving back to IL/Chicagoland area Sept 27th

Will be returning to the hometown on Sept 27th and looking forward to diving back into the coin/currency scene. Will appreciate any info on upcoming shows, great shops, etc. I've been gone almost 3 years, sure things have changed somewhat.

Yes, some things have changed, but then some things are still the same. Now for the info on the shows:
Here are the usual ones......
1st Sunday - Lemont (S/SW Burbs)
2nd Sunday - Countryside (W Burbs)
3rd Sunday - Itasca (N/NW BBurbs)
And not to be outdone, there are some other shows that are not quite in the same level of frequency.......
Will County Coin Club Show - Joliet - Last Sunday in February
Kankakee Valley Coin & Currency Show (A new (actually revived) show done by yours truly
Elgin Coin Club Show - Elgin - last Sunday in April and October
Indian Hill Coin Club Show - Gurnee - April or May
Lake County (IL) Coin Club Show - Waukegan or Gurnee - latter part of March
Rockford Area Coin Club Show - Rockford - 3 times a year, dates varies
And lets not forget the "Big Boys"......
ILNA Fall Show & Convention (which grew in size this past year) - Tinley Park - normally Thursday, Friday, & Saturday after Labor Day, but for 2009 it will be a week later due to Long Beach (in California for those who cannot read a map.)
MidAmerica Coin Show - Schaumburg - latter part of June
Chicago International Coin Fair (for the "darksiders) - Rosemont - latter part of April/early May
Chicago Paper Money Expo - Rosemont - latter part of March
So you'll be very busy pursuing your numismatic interests with all of these shows. Enjoy!
Thanks to everyone for the useful info: only a few more days and i'll be back.

I envy smoe of you- mebbe the wife will get me a set of tickets for my bday(next week Thursday btw)- then I can sit for the first round of the playoffs- should be a quick in n out.
BUT- I will be in town 2nd week of dec.- another trial- and I'll be visitin the Capt. for the heck of it ( close to the courthouse).
