We’d love for you to join us for our next Summer Happy Hour—this time at The Dock at Montrose Beach!

This is a great opportunity to spend time together in a relaxed setting. The Dock offers a great outdoor atmosphere with views of the water and live music daily. This is a repeat event from last year and was one of our guests’ favorites – you won’t want to miss this one! As always, if there’s someone you’ve been meaning to introduce to our team, this is a perfect setting to do so.

Parking is available in the Montrose Beach and harbor area, including the paid lot near The Dock. Additional parking can be found along Montrose Harbor Drive and nearby streets west of Lake Shore Drive if you don’t mind a good walk before joining us!

Rideshare drop-off is available near the harbor entrance, and public transit provides access followed by a short walk to the venue.

We’d love for you to join us for our next Summer Happy Hour—this time at Welcome Back Lounge!

This is our final Summer Happy Hour of the season. Come relax with us in a cozy retro-inspired setting, complete with a vintage camper converted into an outdoor bar! As always, if there’s someone you’ve been meaning to introduce to our team, this event would certainly be perfect for it.

Street parking is available along Milwaukee Avenue and surrounding streets in the Logan Square area. Nearby residential streets may offer additional options; please check for posted permit restrictions and signage.

Rideshare services are a convenient option with direct drop-off along Milwaukee Avenue. Public transportation is also easily accessible, with the California Blue Line stop approximately a 5-minute walk from the venue.

We’d love for you to join us for our next Summer Happy Hour—this time at Uncommon Ground in Lakeview!

This is a great opportunity to spend time together in a relaxed setting. Uncommon Ground offers a great indoor/outdoor atmosphere that makes it easy to connect. If there’s someone you’ve been meaning to introduce to our team, this is a perfect setting to do so.

Street parking is available throughout the Lakeview neighborhood surrounding Uncommon Ground. While the venue is near Wrigley Field, there is no home game for the Chicago Cubs scheduled that evening, which should help reduce congestion compared to typical event nights.

Parking along Clark Street and other main roads may still fill up during the early evening, but residential side streets nearby (such as Grace, Byron, and Sheffield) often provide additional options. Please be mindful of posted permit restrictions and signage.

Rideshare services and public transportation are also convenient alternatives. The Addison Red Line stop is approximately a 10-minute walk from the venue, and several bus routes run along Clark Street.

During this complimentary session, we’ll address important components of Social Security benefits. We'll talk about how Social Security benefits are calculated and discuss options for anyone who has ever been married, as well as the role of taxes and your retirement plan. We’ll also look at the newly passed Social Security Fairness Act, which may increase Social Security benefits for people with a non-covered pension through the elimination of the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO).

The majority of our team, including our out-of-state teammates, will be in Chicago this week as well, so if you haven’t met them yet, this is your chance!
