What was once a milk condensation factory has now turned into luxury apartments in downtown Huntley.

On Thursday, October 26, the Prairie Lodge in Sun City hosted their bi-annual consumer showcase for residents and the public from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. It is an opportunity for businesses to showcase their products and services and residents to do home renovations and plan the next stages of their life.

For the first time in over a decade, adults and children alike gather in the same performing room at Sun City to practice blocking, sing songs, and come together as a community for the upcoming fall musical The Sound of Music.

For one cast member, Jocelyn Doden, The Sound of Music is extra special.
