Chicago Fire Juniors Cup

The Windy City on Lake Michigan
Chicago's lakefront is one of the great urban gifts in America — 26 miles of free public beaches, the Navy Pier, and Millennium Park's Cloud Gate sculpture all sit within walking distance of each other. The deep-dish pizza debate is real, and every family should weigh in at least once.
