Chicago Meeting Planners Guide 2009 - (Page 243) THINGS TO SEE & DO Chicago is jam-packed with cultural riches, thanks to its 200 theaters and 46 museums. In fact, Time magazine named Chicago as having “the best theater in the U.S.” Attendees with a spare moment or a free day between seminars and speakers will find an abundance of stimulating activities to fill their schedule. And if they simply need a breath of fresh air and a little time away from a busy show floor, they can head for the great outdoors and take advantage of the 552 parks, 19 bicycle paths, seven golf courses, 33 beaches and 29 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline.
