Lakeside Cemetery

The Libertyville Historical Society and the Lakeside Cemetery Association invite you to the 5th Annual Lakeside Cemetery Walk on Saturday, September 12.

This year's tour features the stories of five military men from Libertyville who lost their lives while serving in WWII - Lowell Acox, Elmer Egloff, Glen Dale Kranz, Paul Ray, Jr., and William Whitney II. The profiles are based on research conducted by Libertyville Historical Society life member Joe Nemmers, Jr. for his book 29 Knocks on the Door: One Small Town's Costly Sacrifice in World War II.

Tours depart at 2:00pm, 2:20pm, 2:40pm, and 3:00pm. The tour will last 45-60 minutes and requires walking distances, walking over uneven ground, and long periods of standing.

A limited number of mobility-assisted tickets will be available per time slot. Mobility-assisted tickets reserve a seat on a golf cart which will drive between tour stops. Walking will still be required to access some of the gravesites.

Tickets are $10 for the general public and $5 for Society members. Payment will be collected at the event. Cash, check, Apple Pay or PayPal is accepted.

Reserve your ticket at libertyvillehistory.org or call 224.513.7426.

All course participants are invited to attend as part of this series.
Held at the newly renovated Glen Rowan House, this series explores both the constraints on democracy—such as recent democratic backsliding, the Constitution’s roadblocks on majority rule, and the weakening of voting rights to name a few—and strategies to overcome them and enhance democracy in America. Each week will highlight a new topic and the opening and closing sessions will begin with a social reception featuring food and refreshments prior to class.
Both the educational content and social receptions will offer opportunities to build community, engage with College leadership, and learn more about ongoing campus initiatives.

Held at the historic Krebs Center for the Humanities, this series will explore the traditions of Renaissance form, ornament, spatial organization, material culture, and visual symbolism that shaped how buildings and objects were made, inhabited, and interpreted. Along the way, participants will apply what they have learned directly to the Krebs Center and its collection, asking how the villa itself accumulates meaning, displays taste, and shapes our encounters with history. Each session will begin with a social reception featuring food and refreshments.
Both the educational content and social receptions will offer opportunities to build community, engage with College leadership, and learn more about ongoing campus initiatives.
