The First Big Snow! Check Out All These Fun Photos

What a perfect day for sledding. The snow is fluffy on top, a little packed underneath, it's been in the lower 30s all day and it's Saturday!

Elmhurst's sledding hills—at Berens, Eldridge and Ben Allison parks—saw some action today. Where did you go sledding today? Send your fun-in-the-snow photos to karenc@patch.com, and we'll post them here on Elmhurst Patch. 

We'll get you started with some photos from the Eldridge Park sledding hill, sent to us by John and Jake Eleniewski. When they're not out documenting Elmhurst fires and crime scenes, they're having fun on the slopes. Thanks guys!
