Central IL Attractions

Built in 1951 by Clarence Gall, this gymnasium is up for Historic Preservation in Kankakee County Illinois due to its rare engineering and architectural design. Since its construction, the gym has undergone very little change. The barrel-vaulted roof, with ribs of glue-laminated wood is in great condition, as is the original wooden floating floor.

For 37 years it was home to the Reddick High School Bulldogs sports teams in the R.U.C.E. (Reddick, Union Hill, Campus and Essex) Community School District and later for the Reddick Grade School as part of the Herscher School District.

Salem4youth is located in a unique and beautiful rural setting about 2 hours southwest of Chicago. Most of our young men need a peaceful setting to work through their struggles/issues. We have a rich heritage and our facility continues to evolve as the Lord provides.

Work teams not only from local area churches but also from as far away as North Carolina and Ohio come and bless the work here through facility improvement projects. These groups work side-by-side with our young men. You are always welcome to come and visit us and tour our campus!
