Celebrating in Midlothian

Where Midlothian hosts use tents

Community life here centers on churches, schools and block parties, and graduations, anniversaries, homecomings and family reunions fill the calendar. The Midlothian Park District runs parks and ball fields, and Bremen High School events bring friends and family together on game nights and graduation weekends. Pulaski Road is a main route for deliveries, and Metra trains pass near downtown, so timing matters if you are coming from the north or east.

  • Backyard parties

    Modest lots suit long tables and stackable chairs. Measure first.

    Tents here: Before anything else, mark sprinkler heads, septic fields and buried utilities. Stake tents need soft ground and clearance; frame tents can sit on patios with weights.

  • Church and fellowship halls

    Halls often need extra chairs for anniversaries and homecomings.

    Tents here: Halls rarely need a tent, but an entry canopy keeps guests dry between the parking lot and the door in spring and fall.

  • Park district picnics

    Pavilions need reservations. Check with the Midlothian Park District.

    Tents here: Most park districts limit staking and require approval for tents, so a weighted frame tent or a reserved pavilion is often the simpler route.

  • Reservoir and preserve outings

    Forest preserve groves need a Forest Preserves of Cook County permit.

    Tents here: Most park districts limit staking and require approval for tents, so a weighted frame tent or a reserved pavilion is often the simpler route.

How to plan

Getting tent rentals right

  1. 01

    Size it

    Seated dinner: 10-12 sq ft per guest. Standing cocktail: 6-8 sq ft. Add room for dance floor, bar and buffet.

  2. 02

    Check the ground

    Pole tents are staked into grass; frame tents can sit on pavement with water barrels or concrete weights.

  3. 03

    Permits and utilities

    Many Chicago-area towns require a permit for tents over 400 sq ft, and staking needs a utility locate (JULIE in Illinois).

  4. 04

    Plan for weather

    Add sidewalls, heaters or fans; a Chicago spring or fall evening can drop below 50°F.
