ASHWAUBENON, WI (WTAQ) – Packer fans have a chance this fall to learn about various aspects of their team’s past.
The organization is holding a series of monthly ‘history nights.’
Hall of Fame and Stadium Tour Manager Krissy Zegers says Tuesday’s installment is titled ‘Training Camp Traditions.’
“Talking about the many things that the Packers do that are specific and special to the organization itself, all regarding training camp.”
Zegers explains the point of creating the series, which launched in February but took a break over the summer.
“There’s a lot more of a story behind many of the things that our exhibits are talking about. Us offering history nights is really giving fans an opportunity to take one step deeper into some of the exhibits that we actually have in the Hall of Fame.”
In addition to Tuesday’s session on training camp, Zegers notes there is a September 26 gathering on ‘Packers Tall Tales,’ a ‘Growing the Gridiron’ presentation on October 25, and a ‘Home for the Holidays’ session on November 28.
Zegers explains how they decided on the topics.
“We hear different questions that fans are coming up with on stadium tours or questions that fans are asking in the Hall of Fame.”
According to Zegers, the various topics will be covered by an array of guest presenters.
“They’re either within the organization or they have very close ties to the organization. What we’re really trying to do is tap into a lot of the resources that we have within the building that have pretty great stories, but the stories may not always be shared to the general public.”
Tickets are $15 per session and can be purchased at Lambeau Field or by clicking here.
