Chris Kappes

Hi, I’m Chris Kappes—a Financial Advisor and Insurance Agent with Country Financial in Peoria and a proud new sponsor of HOOPS Inc.

I grew up in Princeville and now live in Brimfield with my high‑school sweetheart, Katie, and our three kids: Olivia (19), Jackson (16), and Brady (13). Sports have always been part of my DNA. In high school I lettered in football, basketball, and baseball—earning all‑conference honors at quarterback, a senior‑year nod on the hardwood, and two McDonald’s All‑Star baseball selections. I spent a year playing both sports at Aurora University before finishing a finance degree at Illinois State University (and dominating a few intramural scoreboards along the way).

Katie and I married in 2003—the same year I opened my Country Financial office. Starting from scratch taught me that straight talk and quick follow‑ups matter more than fancy jargon. Whether we’re reviewing coverage or mapping long‑term money goals, I focus on clear guidance and service that feels local because it is.

Off the clock, you’ll find me cheering for my kids, logging miles at the gym, sneaking in a round of golf, or mapping out our next family road trip.

Partnering with HOOPS Inc. lets me give back to the game—and the community—that shaped who I am. I’m honored to be on the team and can’t wait to see what we accomplish together.

Cutting-edge training, personalized support, and a community of like-minded champions, we provide the platform for athletes to soar.

At HOOPS Inc., we foster a brotherhood like no other, where unbreakable camaraderie fuels our collective drive for greatness. We extend our deepest gratitude to our veterans and active military personnel, honoring them as truly bonded warriors who exemplify the strength and unity we strive for in all our endeavors.
