Blackhawk Students Tour Springfield by Train
About 150 Blackhawk Junior High students and teachers will travel by chartered bus and Chicago train to Springfield for a full day of sightseeing. They will visit the Capitol, Lincoln's Home and Tomb, New Salem Village, and possibly the Illinois State Museum, with supper on the return trip. The group departs 6:30 a.m., arrives 8:10 p.m. in Chicago, and returns to Blackhawk by 9:30 p.m.
