Orland Park Chamber Hosts 27th Annual Community EXPO

An annual event showcasing what the Orland Park area has to offer, the 27th annual Orland Park Area Chamber of Commerce Community Expo will take place from 9am to 1pm on Saturday, October 15, at Carl Sandburg High School, 13300 S LaGrange Road in Orland Park.

Nearly 100 area businesses, organizations and restaurants will take part in the event.

“The purpose of the Expo has always been to help residents get to know the local businesses as well as the services and products they provide,” says Keloryn Putnam, Orland Chamber executive director.

The day’s activities will include the exhibitors as well as the Culinary Corner, Advocate Children’s Hospital Kid’s Fair Extraordinaire and entertainment provided by local students. In the Culinary Corner, Chamber restaurants and caterers distribute small food samples to attendees. The Kid’s Fair attracts children of all ages with their healthcare related fun activities. There is no charge for the Expo and all are welcome to attend.

“Spend your Saturday with us at the Expo,” says Putnam. “Be sure to bring your kids and grandkids so that they can join in the fun, too! There is something for everyone.”
