Blackhawks, State of Illinois to Unveil Blackhawks License Plate by Kelsey Peters / Chicago Blackhawks

Tuesday afternoon the Chicago Blackhawks and Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White will unveil a new Blackhawks permanent Illinois license place. Hockey Hall of Famer and Blackhawks Ambassador Stan Mikita and three-time NHL All-Star Marty Turco will be on hand at the James R. Thompson Center when the license plate is made public.





Not only will the license plate allow Illinois drivers to show their support for the Blackhawks, but money raised from the plates supports public schools through the state. The Chicago Blackhawks are the first sports team to take advantage of a 2002 Illinois public act allowing the state’s sports teams to have designated license plates.
