Blackhawk on a horse at Diversey and the Lake Shore Path
In 1892, Lord Frederick Arthur Stanley, 16th Earl of Derby and then Governor General of Canada gave a gift of a championship trophy to annually be awarded to the top amateur team in Canada. The generously sized bowl shaped trophy would eventually become known as the Stanley Cup, and the rest is history.

CTA commuters on Chicago’s South Side have been dreading May 19 for months.
The Red Line South Branch will close all stations south of the Roosevelt stop for at least five months in order to perform necessary repairs on the aging railway. This leaves everyday Red Line passengers to find other means to get around the city.
Carmella White of Andersonville says she takes the Red Line daily all over the South Side to look for employment, visit friends, and go to church. White has reviewed the commuter options the CTA is offering, but is unsure if they will be enough to ease the burden.
