Weekdays 12 a.m. to 5 a.m.
For the tenth consecutive year, the Reddick Mansion Association invites students from Ottawa Township High School and Marquette Academy to visit the Mansion and its beautiful gardens and grounds for Homecoming Dance photos. Homecoming-attendees as well as their parents, grandparents, and friends are welcome. Because of an Association event, the Mansion itself will not be open for photos.
On Saturday, September 22nd, the day of OTHS’s Homecoming Dance, the gardens and grounds will be open from 3:30pm-5:30pm. On Saturday, September 29th, the day of Marquette Academy’s Homecoming Dance, the gardens and grounds of the Mansion will be available for photographs from 4:00pm-6:00pm. Members of the Reddick Mansion Association will be on site to direct people and answer any questions.
As in past years, there is no charge for this event, but donations are always gratefully accepted. The gardens at the Reddick Mansion are maintained by an all-volunteer work force, many from the Ottawa Garden Club and the Reddick Mansion Association.
The Reddick Mansion, built in 1858, is listed on the National Register of Historic Sites and is open to the public for tours. The Mansion, at 100 W. Lafayette Street, Ottawa, IL, also has meeting/reception rooms available for rent for special events.
