No need to fight the snow and travel to Chicago during these cold winter months. The North Shore provides ample opportunities to get out of the house and still stay local.
Daily North Shore encourages everyone to post their events to our North Shore Master Calendar — it is free and easy, and the calendar is widely read. Try it for yourself — click here to submit an event. You can include photos, invitations, fliers and/or other graphics to help communicate the information. It will even generate a map for your venue.
