The one-hundred seven heat index didn’t stop football fans from coming out to the Friday Night Lights Fest on Friday. The second-annual family-friendly football festival was held at BrickStone Brewery Production Facility in Bourbonnais, IL. The event was put on by the Kankakee Chamber of Commerce in partnership with the Village of Bourbonnais and the Kankakee County Convention and Visitors Bureau. The festival is a community-wide pep rally and football field event presented by Bear Construction.
Later tonight, the community-wide pep rally known as Friday Night Lights Fest will celebrate the return of the 17th Chicago Bears Training Camp held in Bourbonnais since 2002 that starts next week.
