Travel Note
For travel tips: You can fly directly into Springfield, Chicago or St. Louis. Flying into SPI is an additional flight and an additional cost. If you fly into Chicago you can stay a night in that fabulous city and then take the train down to SPI directly from union station the next day. Or just take the train from O'Hare directly after your flight. St. Louis you would have to rent a car but the drive is only 1.5 hours, where Chicago is 3.5 hour drive. Just giving everyone a heads up of travel.
