Thanksgiving Hockey Tournament @ McFetridge Sports Center

A holiday hockey tournament featuring kids 9-15 in the Squirt, Pee Wee and Bantam divisions. Ages 9-15? Hmm, not too much younger than a couple of the Blackhawks. The free event runs from 8am to 4pm at the McFetridge Sports Center, 3843 N. California Ave.

Christkindlmarket Opens

Open through 12/24, this unique holiday event once again takes over Daley Plaza (corner of Washington and Dearborn) in the Loop. The German-style market, or Christkindlmarket, features unique European-style food, crafts, musical and dance performances and family events. Free to attend! Full schedule and more online.
