You should bring your own chair / picnic mat/blanket or can rent a chair at Ravinia at $10. You can bring your own drinks and food and something to share with the group. I bring a table, decorate it, and also will have a corkscrew and bottle opener and some disposable cups in case you bring wine for yourself or to share.
