Starting in St. Charles at the parking lot on the corner of Route 31 and Cedar Street at 8:00 AM, we will have a 90-mile drive to Zion, IL to visit the museum. Followed by lunch at The Shanty Restaurant in Wadsworth, IL.
The Russell Military Museum is dedicated to educating the public about the conflicts and wars the US has weathered. The museum strives to highlight the many issues facing a country involved in a war. It can be easy to take for granted the magnitude of moving troops and vehicles across the world in a moment‘s notice or the boredom and tension a soldier can feel when all is quiet. It‘s just as easy to underestimate the power of military machinery until you can see it up close.

Lunch at the Shanty at 12:45
