Title: Bachelor's grove in October....
Post by: sb422 on Oct 07 2008 - 10:31AM
I have been reading several posts on this board over the last few days about when to go and when not to go.  I see many that say do not go in October.  When you say this are you referring to going at night in October?  Myself and a couple coworkers were planning on going during the day in the middle of the week in October.  Will police still bother us even if it is during the day?  Has anyone had that problem?

Thanks!  None of us have been and have talked about it for a while now so we're ready to make our first visit

Last year they blocked the entrance pretty much the whole month of October.  however i was there last Friday and it was open.  It's owned by the forest preserve, so the normal hours are dawn to dusk......but that doesn't seem to be the case in October?


If I get a chance I'll run out there later today and see if there blocking it off yet.

Oh yeah............Welcome to the forum too!   :Y:

Thanks for the info - I definitely appreciate the heads up!   :Y:  Do let me know if you see it is blocked.  I told the other 2 people I was going with that it might be blocked so we may wait until early November to visit.

I was there yesterday in the morning. No problems. Just a F.P. cop driving around Rubio.

I went there this afternoon, and it was fine.  There was one cop in the forest preserve parking lot but he wasn't doing anything at all.  However I would guess there still might be a problem closer to Halloween........ But I'll just keep checking it out and I'll let everyone know if and when they start to block it again.

My gf has been a Midlothian/Crestwood/Oak Forest resident for all 46 years of her life. She don't believe 90% of the hype.   
Only one thing keeps happening to her:  Everytime she passes BGC during a full moom, the radio dial keeps moving back & forth!  ter

...BUT acording to her, it's mostly hype.  :)
