Yordon Center Celebration at Soldier Field
Champions of NIU’s Yordon Center project braved the winter storm to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Yordon Center at a celebration dinner on Saturday, December 3 at Soldier Field’s Cadillac Club. The event honored the project’s major donors and signaled out the extraordinary support of leadership donors Jeffrey and Kimberly Yordon and Fran and the late George Wilkins.
Guests enjoyed dinner, music, and a performance by the Huskie cheerleaders. They heard from President John Peters, Head Coach Joe Novak, and Athletic Director Jim Phillips. The crowd relived the excitement with video replays of Huskie Championship moments. And fittingly, the student-athletes who will benefit from the center thanked donors themselves. The evening gave some of NIU’s top supporters a chance to bask in the glory of NIU’s successes both on and off the field…an opportunity these champions have certainly earned.
