They flew a balloon around Chicago to spread the word (!) WOW!
No, really, it's not a huge thing at least from my perspective around here, but there are certainly some things to do. Arlington Heights usually has a sort of town festival of some sort in their downtown this weekend if I'm not mistaken. But it doesn't really become a huge deal for most people around here.
