| PARKING IS EASIER THAN EVER Make parking so easy by parking at Geimer's Greenhouses (Saturday and Sunday only) after 10 AM. Geimer's Greenhouses is located on Hicks Rd. (Old Rt. 53) about 1/4 mile north of Lake-Cook Road. (847) 358-6363. The shuttle, sponsored by Holiday Inn Express (Palatine/Arlington Heights), will run every 20 minutes. That leaves enough time to browse for perennials and Mother's Day plants at Geimer's! Shuttle meets at the gazebo in town next to the Fire Station. The Shuttle runs from Geimer's Parking Lot Gazebo to Long Grove's Archer Parking Lot Gazebo. PLEASE NOTE: THE LAST SHUTTLE LEAVES LONG GROVE AT 5 PM SHARP BOTH DAYS! Handicapped Parking: An area in the Archer Parking Lot (accessible from R.P.Coffin Road OR Old McHenry Rd.) is designated for handicapped parking. Lot attendants can guide you on arrival. |
