Footloose is coming to Highland Park High School in Highland Park IL in February.

This year's Musical at Highland Park High School is Footloose.  This musical production is about a boy who moves from Chicago to a small farm town.  When Ren, the teenage boy, arrives to his new town he realizes that many things are different in this small town.  The major difference is that he has moved to a town where rock music and dancing are illegal. Come see  Ren's courage and determination and what he does  to transform this small farm town.

This fabulous HPHS production is right around the corner - February 10-12, 2011 at 7:30 p.m. The cost per ticket is $10.00.  Tickets can be reserved from January 31-February 6 by calling the ticket hot line (224)765-2386.

Don't miss this wonderful production - I'm looking forward to attending and seeing the talent of the High School students - many which I know.

Highland Park IL Real Estate Market Update for 2010

2010 has come to an end - what will 2011 bring? As an active REALTOR I think that it is premature to forecast 2011.  The opinions are all over the board - some   believe that it will be similar to 2010, others fear it will be worse and some think that it will be a very good Spring Market.

Below is a snap shot of Real Estate transactions during 2010 in Highland Park:

Summary: A total of 286 closed transactions took place in Highland Park in 2010 with an overall average sales price of $602,465 and an overall  average market time of 228 days.  If you take a closer look many homes had a significantly higher original list price and once the list price of the home was adjusted it SOLD.

If you are planning on selling your Highland Park IL home in 2011 call me for a comparative market evaluation of your residence. Some important tips to keep in mind: 1. List to sell - your house will need to shine within its price bracket. 2. List with a real estate agent who presents you with a marketing plan- know what kind of marketing and exposure your home will receive. 3. De-clutter - get rid of things that you do not plan on taking with you - donate, have a garage sale or sell on eBay.

Snowflake Club - Offers  Ski and Snowboard Trips for Kids Living on Chicago's North Shore.

The Snowflake Club is a well organized program offering kids between 8-16 an opportunity to ski or snowboard on the weekends.  This is a wonderful program which is offered by Williams Ski & Patio.  If your kids enjoy skiing or snowboarding as much as my two boys then I recommend checking out the snowflake club for your kids.

This is a well run program which includes adult supervision, ski/board instruction and bus service on coach buses for kids between 8-16. There are five locations for bus stops - Deerfield, Highland Park, Kenilworth, Lake Forest and Wilmette.   Various trips are available for boarding or skiing at  different ski areas like Alpine Valley, Wilmot Mountain, Cascade, Devils Head, and Chestnut.  I've got one son off to Cascade already and the other one is headed to Wilmot today.

For more information check out the Snowflake Club.  Our boys really love boarding, having an opportunity to hit the slopes on the weekends is something they love.   We  think it's a well run and fun program for them.  Just another great reason to consider living on Chicago's North Shore.
