Summer's First Fest

     With the first weekend of summer, come the first slew of street festivals all about.  One of those was the Do-Division Street Fest up in Wicker Park.  For the 8th year in a row, the West Town Chamber of Commerce put together a festival that exhibits all that is to be seen and done in that neighborhood.  Appropriately enough, it is called Do-Division.  It features everything that a good street fest should.  Food, drinks, music, and a genial atmosphere to show off just what the neighborhood has to offer.  Right off the bat when you enter the fest proper, there are a series of booths, all with the same goal of appealing to the Fest's main clientele:  Millennials.  There are booths for the Uber taxi service(the one that's been in the news as of late over a potentially unfair advantage over traditional taxicabs), the Illinois Lottery, a singles sports league, and several other activities that folks of that age would pursue.  As a further sign of the target crowd, attendees were congregating around the beer tent like ants on a very small log, which led to some congestion problems on the sidewalks.  Additionally there were two music stages set up, which displayed banners for more of the sponsors, including Red Eye(once again, not a huge surprise).  All in all, the Do-Division Street Fest was a good kick-off to the busy Chicago summer season and a good representation of all that the West Town neighborhoods have to offer.
