CHICAGO – Recently, state Rep. Lindsey LaPointe, D-Chicago, attended the annual Gladstone Park Fall Fest to meet and greet local neighbors one-on-one and to judge the costume contest.

“Events like these bring our community closer together and are a great way for residents to learn about our office,” said LaPointe. “We want to continually show that we are accessible to our neighbors and very much a part of the community.”

LaPointe represents the 19th District, which covers portions of Chicago’s Big Oaks, Dunning, Gladstone Park, Jefferson Park, Portage Park, Union Ridge and West Portage Park neighborhoods, and River Grove, Elmwood Park, Norridge and Harwood Heights.
