Chicago
Alumni Club of Chicago (KACC)

Kellogg Alumni Club of Chicago members have been busy attending several book club get-togethers throughout the city and suburbs as well as participating in a variety of events supporting local institutions and community activities.

Kellogg Family Day was hosted at the Kohl Children's Museum, where families got to know each other over refreshments and then enjoyed all-day admission to the museum. Alumni families had a great day exploring the museum and sharing a lot of fun with their fellow alums!

Another well-known Chicago institution, the Merchandise Mart, was the venue for a Red Tag Sale and Dream Room event where alumni received VIP credentials to shop for premium home furnishings, including furniture, fabrics, fixtures and lighting. They were also treated to tours of Dream Rooms, where displays of manufacturers' products provided plenty of home decorating ideas. This is becoming a popular alumni event and has been sold out the past two times.

Several alumni volunteers helped clean up and plant seedlings along a portion of the Chicago River during Chicago River Day. Alums worked in the morning and then attended the Chicago River Festival in the afternoon. The festival included a barbecue, canoe rides, live music and an environmental fair. This is another popular annual event for our Chicago area alumni, who, along with other groups from schools, corporations and neighborhood organizations, supported a great cause and gave back to our community.
