Spend a leisurely day visiting the Audubon Inn and a narrated boat tour of Horicon Marsh on a trip offered by McHenry County College from 8:45 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday, July 21. A motor coach will leave from the College’s circular drive in parking lot B.
The Audubon Inn, named for the French-American ornithologist John James Audubon, was built in 1896. This three-story brick building is an example of Queen Anne architecture in a historical block. Following this site, you will dine at one of the oldest Inns in the state, the Beaumont, which is declared a National Historic Landmark.
After lunch, enjoy the serenity of the surroundings on a narrated pontoon boat tour of Horicon Marsh, often referred to as the Little Everglades of the North. On the way home, you will stop for coffee at Berres Brother’s Coffee Roaster in Watertown, Wis.
Cost is $99. Register by June 25 by calling the MCC Registration Office and use course ID: NST S09 001 when registering. No refunds. For additional information about any of MCC’s trips, contact Claudia Terrones at (815) 455-8782.
