From the beginning, living and learning have been intertwined – learning at school or academy or college, learning at camp or church or club.

Many who live and learn in Lake Forest and Lake Bluff work in Chicago. But these towns have always been workplaces as well, from the earliest pioneer farmers and merchants to the newest corporations. Beloved shops have served generations, and development has been ripe for new ventures.

Birth to graduation, marriage to retirement, in sickness and health, people have resided, learned and worked here, calling Lake Forest and Lake Bluff home through milestones of life.
