  2007 Holiday Gift Wrapping Program & Holiday Delights Entertainment Schedule


After School Matters
Holiday Gift Wrapping Program

The Chicago Airport System is pleased to provide free gift-wrapping services Wednesday, December 19 through Friday, December 21, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. at O'Hare and 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at Midway. A diverse selection of holiday-themed wrapping paper and gift bag designs will be offered, including a design created by After School Matters students as part of Chicago's internationally recognized job-training program for young people interested in the arts. Volunteer Airport Ambassadors will wrap gifts at a location near Harry Caray's restaurant at Midway International Airport. At O'Hare, gift-wrapping will take place in Terminal 1, B Concourse, at the dinosaur exhibit; in Terminal 2, near Goose Island; and in Terminal 3, across from Mrs. Field's Cookies, near Gate H1.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) asks that travelers not bring wrapped gifts to the airport, since they may be opened and inspected as part of the security screening process.
