HOF VILLAGE

“We look forward to celebrating the rich history of the NFL and helping to kick off the next century of the game from the city where it all began,” stated Jim Porter, publisher and CEO of The Canton Repository, who serves as the chairman of the community’s Centennial Host Committee. At the epicenter of the Super Bowl-like celebration will be the opening of Johnson Controls Hall of Fame Village as the premier destination for all things football. Millions of visitors will be immersed in programming created around the values learned from the game, such as commitment, integrity, courage, respect and excellence. The inspiring experience will encourage every person to live a “Hall of Fame” life. “This village is going to be extraordi-

nary,” stated Michael Klein, managing partner of the M. Klein & Company, during a keynote speech at the 2018 Can-

ton Regional Chamber of Commerce dinner. “It is going to be fantastic for football fans around the world.”
