DETAILS

What do fishing rods, dogs, golf clubs, and interlocking plastic bricks have in common?

If you said “things I nearly trip over in the middle of the night on my way to the bathroom,” you’re only half right. All four are also related to featured events happening in the coming weeks at the Tinley Park Convention Center, 18451 Convention Center Drive, just a short half-hour drive from Downtown Chicago!
