Discover Your Next Chapter at Remington Woods Open House | Saturday, October 3 | 10 AM–3 PM
Some places simply feel like home.
Tucked quietly among the trees in Channahon, Remington Woods invites you to explore beautiful single-family ranch homes in an established 55+ community known for its peaceful streets and welcoming atmosphere.
Hosted by Brandy Crask, Director of Sales of Ravinia Communities, this open house offers a chance to tour the last four available homes and experience the quietest streets in&nbsp;Will&nbsp;County, tucked away in the woods.This isn't a retirement lifestyle here. It's a quiet lifestyle. 
“What I love most is how it feels here—the quiet streets, the trees, and the room to enjoy your own home,” Crask says. “I’ve put so much thought into these homes and their luxury upgrades. Seeing someone walk in and begin imagining their life here is the best part.”Brand new single family homes, 1300- 1600 sq ft, from $125,000- $182,500. 
With the final phase complete and only a limited selection of homes remaining, this is a special opportunity to find your place at Remington Woods.
“Remington Woods gives you the feeling of coming home before you have even chosen which home is yours.”

Join us to view and meet the creators of humorous short films depicting challenges women face in the workplace. Converse and connect on how storytelling shapes perceptions, and the responsibility of film makers.
We will screen short films from Womanhood: The Series (Season 2) that use humor to explore the cultural attitudes and biases that women face in STEM or any male-dominated workplaces. Meet the filmmakers, Jessica McGaugh and Sheila E. Schroeder, and join an expert panel discussion on how storytelling shapes perceptions—and what more authentic representation of women's contributions and capabilities would look like.
Media shapes how we see the world - and the portrayal of women in STEM and other fields in movies and TV reinforces negative stereotypes and discourages women from pursuing these paths.
Admission $15, Students $7.50. Light refreshments served.
We'd love for you to join us. Come to laugh, learn, and inspire change.
