The special guest at the event is Mount Prospect native and American Idol winner Lee DeWyze. He and Claire Gregoire, representative from The Gateway, came into our ABC7 studio to tell us about the event. Lee also performed his latest song and told us about his new concert tour that includes stops in the Chicago area.
