Bears All Access Program
50 kids, teachers, and parents from Nettelhorst Elementary in Chicago were the live audience for the Bears “All Access” radio program at Halas Hall in December. The show featured player co-hosts #69 Defensive Lineman Henry Melton and #98 Defensive End Corey Wootton. This once in a lifetime opportunity was a reward for their outstanding entry in the “Back to School Back to Football” Challenge.
