The Tour de Patch Comes Tuesday to Orland Park

We at Patch believe there are two kinds of people: those who love us and those who haven’t found us yet. 

On Tuesday, Patchers will be out and about in Orland Park, talking to people and sharing Orland Park Patch's free, informative and useful features.

Keep an eye out and join us on our first ever Tour de Patch.

Tell us the Secret Word, Win a Gift Card

We’ll be pretty easy to find, as we’ll be decked out in our bright green Patch gear. Check out the photo of Tinley Park Editor Carrie Frillman and me from last year’s .

If you see a Patcher in Orland Park on Tuesday, find one of us, tell us the Secret Word, and win one of our , iTunes or  cards. We'll have other prizes, too, including T-shirts, Patch pens and magnets and more.

The Secret Word will be revealed on Monday. For now we’ll give you a hint. It’s the name of a longtime Orland family and is the name of an alleged haunted house in town.

If you guess it, don’t tell anyone. You want the prizes don’t you?

Sights and Sounds of the Town

We want to talk to as many awesome people as possible, so keep an eye on our Facebook page and Twitter feed for updates on where we'll be.

Throughout the day, you can stop by our home base at . If you tell us a really, really good side-splitting joke, we might just have some Patch gear for you. Rock Bottom, at 16156 S La Grange Rd., opens at 11 a.m.

Be ready to pose for pictures, or even get in on one of our videos.

Let’s enjoy this village.

See you on tour.
