GIVING THANKS PART 2: Our Volunteers

We are thankful for the volunteers who are passionate about our town and the historic downtown Long Grove business district. The thousands of hours of work put in by these dedicated folks year-after-year make it possible for our business association to host the many events that take place for all to enjoy.

Some are members of the HDLGBA board. Some assist with hanging lights for the holidays. Some volunteer at festivals, dress up for the kids and take photos. Honestly, they do A LOT—more than we can list here!

Volunteers are part of the magic of our small town and for that we remain forever thankful.
