Northbrook Nine: Sidewalk Sale & Downtown Event

It’s time to round up the kids and gather your friends to enjoy
family-friendly fun suburban style! These events are presented by
volunteer community organizations and their sponsors. Together, they proudly
invite residents near and afar to enjoy fantastic summer programming for
families, friends and neighbors. “Northbrook Nine”, a series of nine events occuring between April and
October sponsored by volunteer community organizations and their sponsors.
These festive events include an Earth Day celebration, Memorial Day, Block
Party, Fourth of July Parade, Sidewalk Sale with lots of savings, Art in the Park,
Sundae in the Park, Shermerfest and the beloved Northbrook Farmers Market!

Each event is the perfect chance to get your family out of house
and spend time seeing everything that the Northbrook community
has to offer –music, art, shopping and an all around good time. The fun won’t
break the bank either. The cost to attend the Northbrook Nine events

“The Northbrook Nine has become a recognized platform
which brings the community together,” says Mary Junkman, volunteer organizer of
the Sidewalk Sale. “It is a great cost savings, too!”
