The Packers will welcome representatives from Make-a-Wish Wisconsin® as their official community guests. Forty representatives of the organization will make up the Packers Ambassador Line as the players take the field. The representatives will attend the rest of the evening’s festivities with the remainder of the group in the stands.
Other on-field activities prior to practice beginning include scrimmages between four youth football teams from East River Pop Warner, as well as performances by the Green Bay Elite Dance Team. The All-Veteran Parachute Team will jump and parachute into the stadium at 7:15 p.m. Additionally, throughout the practice, the TundraVision will provide a game-like atmosphere, featuring promotions from Fleet Farm and Oshkosh Corporation on the screens, as well as video of fans in the stadium throughout the night.
The national anthem will be performed by Franki Moscato, a 17-year old Oshkosh native who participated in American Idol last season.
Also featured will be the popular “Jerseys Off Our Backs” promotion with Packers jerseys – all of which will have been worn by Packers players in the just-completed practice – to be given away in a random drawing. The evening will conclude with the Packers Family Night Fireworks and Laser Light show.
Attendees are reminded that all individuals, regardless of age, require a ticket for admittance into Lambeau Field. The stadium opens on Friday at 1:30 p.m. to ticketed guests only, and after 3:30 p.m., fans may not exit and re-enter. If fans choose to exit the stadium, they will not be allowed to re-enter for the remainder of the evening.
In case of inclement weather, no refunds will be issued unless all stadium activities – from 5:30 p.m. until the end of the fireworks show – are cancelled.
