Over Labor Day weekend in 2019, a group of 80 Chicago CRED members, staff, friends and family traveled from Chicago to Washington, D.C. to tour the historic Nation’s Capital.

Highlights of the trip included visits to African American cultural landmarks, including Howard University and the African American History museum. The trip also allowed the CRED men to leave Chicago during the holiday weekend, historically a period of heightened violent crime in the city.
