2009 Cubs Caravan


The annual Cubs Caravan is a two-day excursion of Cubs players and coaches to schools, neighborhoods and communities throughout Illinois and Northwest Indiana.

The 2009 Cubs Caravan takes place Wednesday, January 14 and Thursday, January 15. The Caravan consisted of two tours of Chicago Cubs players, coaches and front office staff combining to visit five cities, six elementary schools, a Boys and Girls Club, Chicago's Northwestern Memorial Hospital and a charity luncheon benefiting Cubs Care.

The Cubs also work to promote literacy in area schools via the Cubs Spotlight on Reading program in conjunction with Comcast Spotlight. The program is designed to increase literacy levels by promoting reading enthusiasm and rewarding students for their achievements in reading.
