Friars Cove is both a subdivision of single-family homes and a voluntary association in Addison, IL — a suburb 19 miles west of downtown Chicago. It is made up of 120 homes in a subdivision with only one entrance and exit (clearly seen in the satellite photo). 

Because there are no through streets, it is a quieter, safer place to live. Because of the voluntary not-for-profit association — Friars Cove Lodge, Inc. with a lodge, swimming pool, tennis courts, playground, pond and park area  — it is more of a community. 

In the last few years, 14 people who grew up in Friars Cove have moved back into the neighborhood to raise their children. That means that more than 10% of all the homes in the subdivision are occupied by those who grew up in it! (A few more moved in to the subdivision to the east of Friars Cove.)  This place is that special.

NCAA March Madness -- Replace the Busted TV in the Lodge -- Watch National Championship Game at the Lodge on Monday 4/5/10

You will get the same numbers for every game of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament with the chance of winning set amounts for each round.  You can drop off your check for your square or squares payable to Friars Cove Lodge, Inc. at either Mike Durec's house or to Mary Lou Costabile @ her office – 1001 W.
