<p>WINDY is available for private charters, for weddings, parties, corporate functions, planning committees, reunions, church outings and Worship Sails, tour groups, team building, and educational experiences. Windy may be chartered for a maximum of 150 guests. YOUR EXPERIENCE aboard WINDY is meant to be an outdoors one. However, we also have a grand interior &#8220;salon&#8221;, which can hold 50-70 standing guests, available for dining and for getting out of the sun or weather. It is adjacent to our kitchen, or &#8220;galley&#8221;. The caterer usually sets up buffet style inside the salon, or and guests are free to move in and out.</p>

<p><strong>Tall Ship Sailing Adventures</strong></p>
<p>These 60 or 75 min. Skyline Cruises are the family favorites! Each day of our daily and weekly sailing schedule is unique, with every trip dependent on the direction of the wind. No two tours are alike. Each sail also has a tour theme led by our enthusiastic crew-educators! Our tall ship crew are multi-talented individuals, many of whom have experience in the study of history, maritime lore, the arts, music, and theatre- ready to bring their experience to enhance your enjoyment aboard Windy! You can simply relax on deck in quiet, or gather around for storytelling and hands-on fun!</p>
<p><strong>Tall Ship Educational Sail Training Programs</strong></p>
<p>Educational cruises are offered to school, church, scouts, corporations, and other groups. This program provides a variety of hands-on activities and several talks on topics including maritime history, sailing, maritime arts, physics, navigation, marlinespike, seamanship, marine wildlife, group dynamics and the like. Call to discuss your desires, as we can design an event for your students.</p>
<p>We already have a great program for badge work for Girl Scouts! Programs are designed for each group. Much more details are located on the Education page on the web site. In 2008, over 8,000 students sailed with us!</p>
<p><strong>Tall Ship Private Charters</strong></p>
<p>The WINDY is available for private charters, weddings, parties, corporate functions, planning committees (no phones to distract members), team building, reunions, church outings, tours, fun getaways, and educational experiences. Groups as large as 150 can be accommodated. A full range of menu options can be provided by the ship&#8217;s caterers. Call early to confirm availability and to make plans. Reservation dates are guaranteed with payment. Also consider a Pirate Themed Charters for something truly extraordinary!</p>
<p>Corporate team building activities are also offered.<br />

<p><strong>Beyond the Ivy Rooftops Chicago</strong><br />
1010 Waveland<br />
Chicago, IL</p>
<p>Have your next party, bachelorette party or company/client outing at one of Beyond The Ivy Rooftops three historic Wrigley Field venues. All locations provide spectacular views of the game, amazing food and friendly service. Each venue has a unique identity, making each rooftop a special experience. We offer all food, drink and meeting space all included in one ticket price. Our venue is unique because we offer bar type bleachers where the person who books the venue can get around to the entire crowd without blocking anyone&#8217;s views! Visit BeyondtheIvy.com for more information!</p>
<p><strong>We offer 3 venues all on Waveland</strong> with great views into Wrigley Field. We included all food and drinks. We offer an experience where you can get work done and have a great time.</p>
<p><strong>1010 Waveland</strong> is LARGER THAN LIFE! Everything is over sized! The bleachers are huge, the food and drink service bars are huge, even the pictures on the walls are over sized! Where else can you have a private sky box big enough for 200 of your closest friends or colleagues?</p>
<p><strong>1038 Waveland<br />
</strong>A hip and modern vibe kick inside and out of 1038 West Waveland. The low club style seating, sleek shiny tall tables, and over the top artwork all immerse Cub’s fans in a club like game experience.</p>
<p><strong>1048 Waveland</strong><br />
Nostalgia and history make 1048 Waveland. The traditional feel and historic photographs at 1048 Waveland immerse a Cub’s fan in what makes us Cubs fans different… our rich history. Speaking of rich—the club house is filled with marble, granite and wood!<br />
Our most Important Target Market is ?</p>
<p>People looking to have a first class event with little to no work with managed costs and an amazing venue and value. Our rooftop&#8217;s space, design and amenities make it easy for people to enjoy a Chicago Cubs game!</p>
<p><strong>We are most proud of our ability to?</strong></p>
<p>We are proud that the person who spends the money to host an event at Beyond the Ivy can get the value from his or her event by easily getting around our space and not blocking anyone&#8217;s views and spending quality face time with everyone!<br />
<strong>We are famous with customers for our ability to?</strong></p>
<p>We put together an event from start to finish, with all food and drinks included, we are the event that people want to come to and we provide great value for your expense. Our staff works to make sure people&#8217;s needs are met and exceeded.</p>
<p><strong>Unlike our competition, we offer customers?</strong></p>
<p>Other roofs have limitations about where certain clients can be during games- we offer free rein and space for people to be in different places. Bar Bleachers with great views of the game, outdoor beer gardens, and 3rd floor clubhouses!</p>
<p><strong>We would like our customers to tell their friends that we provide the best?</strong></p>
<p>We want our guests to walk out and say that they had a good time at Beyond the Ivy and we want the person who planned the event to say they got a good value by being able to communicate with the people they have paid to have with them at BTI.</p>
<p><strong>Our company enhances customer lives by offering?</strong></p>
<p>Beyond the Ivy understands giving back is important and we offer many half price days that can be used as fundraisers for not for profit groups! We love hosting your benefits and work closely with many organizations throughout Chicago and the USA.</p>
