Chicago Cubs PLAY Event

We had a great PLAY event out at Wrigley Field today. We had about 50 kids from the Chicago Parks and Rec out to the the Stadium and Mark O'Neal, Ed Halbur, and Tim Bus organized a great event! We had hitting, stretching, running, and a tour of the weight room and training room. Clint Faught did a great job talking about steroid awareness. Ted Lilly and Marlon Byrd came out and threw to the kids and signed hats for everyone. Overall it was a great event!
