It is about 4 hours to "The Hollow" in Mt Carroll, IL, but former Chicago PD trainer, USPSA GM, and few-time Steel Challenge Champion, Pete Milinois has taken over the training center that was formerly owned by Blackwater/Xe/WTF-ever they're called now.

There isn't much out there, but he's got a place to crash at the location - my advice, bring beer and BBQ!
