Join us for this unique opportunity to visit the 100 year old Chicago Federal Reserve. Cindy will discuss the major roles of our central bank and how it impacts our lives. She’ll also discuss the transition from Ben Bernanke to Janet Yellen and provide us with an insider view to the state of the economy for 2015. And we’ll start out with a brief visit to the “Money Musuem”!
