More national recognition for Starved Rock

Whether you’re a born and raised Illinoisan or a transplant, there are certain things and places you should experience in the Land of Lincoln.

The lifestyle website called “Only In Your State” put together a list of 10 things “you have to do before you’re an official Illinoisan”.  Number one on the list is to pick a side, either be a Cubs or Cardinals fan.  Number four on the list is to “eat some delicious Illinois corn off the grill at a festival” which you certainly can do at the Mendota Sweet Corn Festival.  Number 10 on the list is to take a family hike at Starved Rock State Park.
