The next generation of play is here, and it will test your fitness, your agility and your speed. It’s for people of all ages and abilities. It’s MOVMNT® and it will move you more than you thought possible. MOVMNT is an electronic game that is powered by people. Users power up the game and dive into the numerous game options from single player to multi-player and individual achievement to team spirit. It’s a huge video game that disguises exercise as entertainment and fosters healthy competition and determination. With two versions, everyone can play and be challenged at their level.

Bike Glenview - North Branch Ride
Please join us on the annual Bike Glenview – North Branch Ride! We’ll explore the beautiful variety of habitats found along the Chicago River, from Bunker Hill Forest Preserve north to Harms Woods. You’ll encounter prairies, wetlands, and woodlands as we wind our way north. Discover what makes these preserves so important for wildlife and people alike!
We’ll stop along the way to chat about the ecology and history of the preserves we’re traveling through. There will be a longer walk through Blue Star Memorial Woods (just north of Harms Woods) to discuss restoration efforts at that site. This ride is designed for cyclists of all skill levels, covering approximately 15 miles.
Please meet at 6639 W Harts Rd, Niles, IL 60714. We’ll be in the parking lot at the northern end of Bunker Hill Forest Preserve. We’ll depart promptly at 10:00 a.m. Remember to bring plenty of water! A helmet is required for this ride.
This event is free and it does fill up, so you must register to attend.
