Walk in the Park:

On Saturday, June 25, Six Flags Great America opens its park gates in support of children and families whose lives have been impacted by life-threatening illnesses.  Now in its fourth year, A Walk in the Park has raised over 1 million dollars for Children’s Miracle Network. All proceeds from Six Flag Great America’s walk benefit the program at Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chicago.  Participants who raise at least $50 will receive a complimentary ticket to the park following the walk. Those interested in registering for the walk should visit www.walkintheparks.org.

Celebrating its 35th incredible year, Six Flags Great America is located between Chicago and Milwaukee and offers fun for the entire family with 14 heart-pounding roller coasters, a free 20-acre water park, spectacular shows, a nighttime illuminated parade and three children’s themed areas.
