If you are considering a move to Northbrook from elsewhere, you should know that Northbrook is a hockey town. There is a new summer hockey camp just announced being held at Sports Center with the instructor Rich Blakey, development hockey director of the Northbrook Hockey League. Players can do a 4 week camp or weekly. My 9 year old son Benji is new to hockey and I can't wait to tell him about this new camp option. This time last year he was just learning to skate and now he's a Blue Hawk.
If you want more information you can call the Sports Center (847) 291-2993. I am always looking for people to share hockey stories...

Assessments are now out
If you haven't received your property assessment, it should have arrived in the mail. The deadline to appeal your assessment is January 31, 2011. Your assessed value determines your property tax bill. If you feel your value seems out of line with your neighborhood, you can appeal. Once the bill comes out, it's too late.
I can help you with comparable solds in your neighborhood, if you wish to make an appeal.
