Waukegan Memories Society

Welcome to the Waukegan Memories Society, where nostalgia runs wild and we reminisce about a time when the world wasn’t in a constant state of chaos—at least, not our delightful little corner of it! Join us as we dive deep into the annals of Waukegan's history, from the moment of its founding to the time the fish in Lake Michigan whispered sweet nothings. We’ll share stories of local legends, the forgotten shops of Genesee Street, and the magical experiences of our beloved Beach Park. Bring your vintage photos, questionable fashion choices, and a hearty appetite for good old-fashioned fun—a sense of humor helps, too. Let's banter about the ridiculously small things that made us laugh, grumble, or just shake our heads in bewilderment, right in the heart of our hometown. Who knows? You might even find someone who remembers your crazy Aunt Mary’s infamous chili recipe! Thursdays from 6 to 8 PM—don’t forget to bring snacks or risk being cursed with the 7-year jinx of blandness!
