Take a nostalgic trip back to the old-school amusement park experience with a fun-filled evening for families on the Elmhurst History Museum grounds. Kids can ride a trackless train and mini-Ferris wheel, play Kiddieland Kats and other carnival games, take aim at the dunk tank, make a roller coaster-themed craft, and try out the marble roller coaster runs.
