The Snow Hill
The Hill, set east off of 93rd and California, is legendary. Part of the original Country Club property, this slope has entertained youngsters for generations. Now, properly maintained by the Village as part of 50-Acre Park's amenities, the famed sledding hill was quite busy this past weekend and will be in the near future, with the snow in the forecast. Let's share a sled; I'll take it going down and you can take it going up!
