CHICAGO SPRING CAMP - MAY 16,17 '09

Chicago Spring Kicking Camp & College Showcase

       After the success of the ILLINOIS OFFSEASON KICKOFF EVENT at Dragons Dome where we had 70 campers and still maintained our goal of a 1 to 7 coach to camper ratio, we are excited to bring our staff to downtown Chicago and kick some footballs with you outside (finally!!!).

THIS CAMP IS FOR YOU.

Accommodations:

      You are responsible for booking your own hotel. I recommend getting a hotel closer to downtown rather than O'Hare Airport. It is easier to get to camp, hotels are nicer, and prices are comparable. Hotwire.com usually has excellent deals. Contact me at thekickingcoach@yahoo.com with any questions.
