Motivational Speaker

Kevin Reilly, Philadelphia Eagles

In 1976, shortly after beginning his NFL career, Kevin was diagnosed with a rare scar tissue tumor. To save him, surgeons were forced to remove his left arm, shoulder, and five ribs, ending his career in football.

Now a motivational speaker, Kevin speaks from the heart and uses his own life as a lesson on how all of us can prevail from bad luck, adversity and pain to find the very best in ourselves.

Urban Heat

The average high for Chicago in July is 84 degrees Fahrenheit and the average low is about 66 F. While this doesn’t take into account the unusual weather patterns that Chicagoans experience every summer, it goes to show that July is predictably hot.

Precipitation Anticipation

During July, the city sees some of its highest levels of precipitation, averaging 3.7 inches of rainfall.

Attire

Business Casual

You are expected to dress business casual (as you would during the normal work week) for much of the Global Sales Meeting. During scheduled breakfasts, meetings, and Tuesday dinner plan to dress business casual (no jeans).

Casual

Wednesday evening we have a fun team building event at the Chopping Block.

Casual attire will be acceptable during this event (jeans, t-shirts, etc. are okay).

Chicago is the third-largest city in the United States, and like other major cities, it experiences what scientists call the “urban heat island effect.” This is a phenomenon in which urban areas experience higher temperatures than their surrounding areas.

Chicago is an average of 2 degrees F warmer than its surrounding areas.

Plant Tours

Plant Tours will take place on Friday.

Jeans are allowed. Make sure you wear closed toe shoes without an extensive heel. Plan to remove all jewelry.

ttir e

The Typical Temperature

Depending on where you stay in Chicago, you may get a bit of natural relief from the July heat. Nestled along the southeastern coast of Lake Michigan, the city’s weather is influenced by winds carried across the water. In July, this can provide a refreshing breeze.

&A

The Lake Effect

July is typically the hottest month in Chicago, but if you’re making plans around the weather, be prepared for more than just heat. Chicago’s size, Midwestern location and place on the coast of Lake Michigan can contribute to unusual and unpredictable weather patterns.

Chicago Dog

A Chicago-style hot dog is an all-beef frankfurter on a poppy seed bun. The hot dog is topped with yellow mustard, chopped white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices or wedges, pickled sport peppers and a dash of celery salt. No ketchup allowed.

Chicago Food

Chicago-Style Pizza

Chicago-style pizza refers to several different styles of pizza developed in Chicago. Arguably, the most famous of these is known as deep-dish pizza. The pan in which it is baked gives the pizza its characteristically high edge and a deep surface for large amounts of cheese and a chunky tomato sauce.

Eli’s Cheesecake

Eli’s Cheesecake is a cheesecake company based in Chicago. Eli’s Original Plain Cheesecake has been called “Chicago’s most famous dessert.” Since the introduction of Eli’s Original Plain Cheesecake, the company now offers cheesecakes with various ingredients such as chocolate, fruit, or caramel, as well as other desserts like tarts, cakes, and tiramisu.

Garrett’s Popcorn

A Chicago tradition since 1945, Garrett’s hot air pops their signature blend of kernels, which they then mix into their secret family recipes. Every batch is handmade throughout the day, and the result is an irresistible snacking sensation. The most popular flavor is the Garrett Mix® which combines sweet CaramelCrisp® with savory CheeseCorn®.

The Mob

The Chicago Outfit (also known as the Outfit, the Chicago Mafia, the Chicago Mob, or The Organization) is an Italian-American organized crime syndicate based in Chicago, Illinois which dates back to the 1910s. It is part of the American Mafia originating in Chicago’s South Side.

Curse of the Billy Goat

A curse was placed on the Chicago Cubs Major League Baseball franchise in 1945 by Billy Goat Tavern owner William Sianis that lasted in a 71year period from 1945 to 2016. Because the odor of his pet goat, named Murphy, was bothering other fans, Sianis was asked to leave Wrigley Field, the Cubs’ home ballpark, during game 4 of the 1945 World Series.

Outraged, Sianis allegedly declared, “Them Cubs, they ain’t gonna win no more,” which had been interpreted to mean that either the Cubs would never win another National League pennant, or that they would never again win a World Series.

The Outfit rose to power in the 1920s, under the control of Johnny Torrio and Al Capone and the period was marked by bloody gang wars for distribution of illegal alcohol during Prohibition. Since then, the Outfit has been involved in a wide range of criminal activities, including loansharking, gambling, prostitution, extortion, political corruption, and murder.

The Outfit did not have a monopoly on organized crime in Chicago, but they were by far the most powerful, violent and largest criminal organization in the Midwest. The Outfit’s control, at its peak, included the West and East, to places as far away as California and Florida. Higher law enforcement attention and general attrition led to the Outfit’s gradual decline since the late 20th century.

The Cubs lost the 1945 World Series to the Detroit Tigers, and did not win a World Series championship again until 2016.

After the incident with Sianis and Murphy, the Cubs did not play in the World Series for the next 71 years until, on the 46th anniversary of Billy Sianis’s death,they defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 5–0 in game 6 of the 2016 National League Championship Series to win the NL pennant. The Cubs

defeated the American League champion Cleveland Indians 8–7 in game 7 (which lasted 10 innings) to win the 2016 World Series, thus ending the curse.

that humans or even a meteor might have been responsible for the event that left an area of about four miles long and almost a mile wide of the Windy City, including its business district, in ruins. Following the blaze, reconstruction efforts began quickly and spurred great economic development and population growth.

stor

In October 1871, dry weather and an abundance of wooden buildings, streets and sidewalks made Chicago vulnerable to fire. The fire burned from October 8 to October 10, 1871, and destroyed thousands of buildings, killed an estimated 300 people and left an estimated 100,000 homeless. It caused an estimated $200 million in damages. Legend has it that a cow kicked over a lantern in a barn and started the fire, but other theories hold
