ABC-7 Flyover Plans Stop At Marian Catholic

CHICAGO HEIGHTS, IL - The ABC-7 morning news team must have enjoyed their visit to Chicago Heights and Bloom Township High School last Friday, when they held their popular "Friday Flyover" event from the school. Because just two weeks later, they will be back in the Heights as they plan to bring the flyover event to Marian Catholic High School.

ABC-7 Meteorologist Tracy Butler will meet with Marian Catholic students and report live from the school, according to a news release from the station. The telecast will begin at 6 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 28 and also feature news personalities Terrell Brown and Tanja Babich.

The Spartan faithful will then be entered into an ABC-7 contest to see who has the best school spirit. The Friday Flyover visits a different school every Friday morning during high school football season. Later that night, the Spartans will host Marist High School.

Joe Reda, athletic director at Bloom, gave us an inside look at the effort it takes from students, teachers and administrators to prepare for the event.

Details on voting for the best school spirit team will be available on abc7chicago.com in October.
