The Chicago Motor Club, or CMC, is local chapter of the American Automobile Association in Chicago, Illinois. The CMC sponsored the first Elgin National Road Race in 1909.[1] Growing from concern for the well-being of students walking to school, the CMC pioneered the concept of School Safety Patrols in 1920.[2]
