This rallye will take you into Ogle County to the home and workshop of internationally renowned sculptor George N. Kapotas who will show you his magnificent sculptures and carvings from wood and stone. His display is spread across 7 plus acres and is magnificently landscaped by George and his wife, Jeanne. They welcome a $3.00 donation but it is not required. George is a remarkable man and he is busy 6 days a week working on his carvings.
This rallye will be over the roads of Kane, DeKalb, Winnebago and Ogle Counties, all new roads to us. The end point will be at Hooper’s Sports Bar and Grille, 975 N. McLean Blvd., Elgin, IL 60123. This is just south of Big Timber Road. Therefore, the start and the end point of this rallye are within walking distance or about 2 blocks apart.
) but turned out to be a nice day after all, with some wonderful roads in the Western suburbs.
