(I do not have any accurate or estimated numbers.) But the Magnificent Mile LIghts Festival will still be held that Saturday, with the parade and the fireworks and the Holiday Train is timed to support that activity.. The City's Official tree will be lighted later. There's still the Thanksgiving Parade down State ST. And there's still the food distributions that will occur from the Train on the Blue line. There is still a large majority that will benefit from a strong Holiday celebration and robust Holiday spending. I am neither a spokesman for the train event or a sponsor, but I will volunteer my special talent along with many other volunteers while being mindful of those who will be less fortunate this Christmas.
