Go Long!

Over the weekend, the President traveled to Camp David for the annual G8 Summit before heading to Chicago to host the NATO Summit, a gathering of leaders from the 28 member countries of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

After the NATO working dinner, the President took a few minutes to throw around a football on Soldier Field, home of the Chicago Bears.

Check out a photo gallery of the President's trip.

Tonight in Joplin

Nearly a year ago, devastating tornadoes ravaged the Joplin, Missouri, area, and the resilience of the Joplin community in the face of tragedy has continued to inspire the country. Tonight, the President will travel to Joplin, to speak at the Joplin High School Commencement Ceremony.

Watch the address at 9:15 p.m. EDT on WhiteHouse.gov/Live.
