Guest speaker is Patrick McCaskey, senior director of the Chicago Bears and grandson of the late George “Papa Bear” Halas. McCaskey will talk about Halas, his family’s football roots, and the compelling story of those who made
the Bears the Monsters of the Midway—from the early days of leather helmets to today’s team.
