It’s that time of year again!  The annual Tom Hanks Day event kicks off on Saturday, 07 April at the Chop Shop in Chicago at noon. It’s back and bigger than ever!

A $10 donation to Lifeline Energy  gets you in the door where.  You’ll be able to watch TH movies, listen to music, dance, drink special cocktail and get a chance to win autographed Tom Hanks memorabilia. The raffle begins between 3:30 and 4:00 pm, so get there early to enjoy all Tom Hanks Day has to offer!

The organizers have even secured a hotel block for out-of-town guests at The Robey Hotel (www.therobey.com) in Wicker Park. Enter the coupon code ‘CHOPSHOP’ at checkout to receive a 15% discount on your stay.
