LEMONT – The Stanley Cup will appear in Lemont on June 29.

The village of Lemont announced that Lemont native and Chicago Blackhawks goalie Scott Darling will be appearing with the Stanley Cup from 2 to 3:30 p.m. June 29 at the CORE building at the Lemont Park District, 16028 W. 127th St.

Attendees will have a chance to see and take photos of the Stanley Cup on a first come, first served basis, according to the Nixle alert from the village.

"A line to enter The CORE Building for viewing/photos will begin at The CORE entrance, and extend south through the softball fields," the alert read. "Those not wanting to enter the building for viewing are welcome to await on the park grounds for a view of Scott (Darling) and the cup as they parade through the entrance. This entrance viewing is expected to begin between 12:15 and 12:35 p.m. at the Old Quarry entrance, to the park district main entrance and down through the back softball fields."

Parking space at the park district is limited, so, if possible, residents are encouraged to walk to car pool. In the event of rain or severe weather, a ticket system will be utilized to ensure attendees' spots in line, according to the village.

Lemont Police Officers and Park District staff will be available throughout the grounds to direct visitors and answer any questions.

Darling was the backup goalie during the Blackhawks' Stanley Cup championship run.

As part of the tradition of winning the cup, each member of the winning organization gets to have a day with the cup, which is often spent sharing the cup with family and friends.

Darling grew up in Lemont before going off to pursue his hockey career.

He returned home June 20 and visited Gelsosomo's Pizzeria while showing the town to his girlfriend, according to Jen Macari, who is in charge of marketing at the pizzeria.

She said he came by to thank the restaurant for its social media campaign, #LemontsDarling, and signed a hockey stick for the restaurant.
