(GREEN BAY PACKERS) The Green Bay Packers today announced plans for the ‘Packers Tailgate Tour,’ set for April 8-12, which will travel around Wisconsin to visit with fans and thank them in person for their support.
The event will feature current and alumni Packers players, with current players Josh Jacobs, Tucker Kraft and Lukas Van Ness and alumni players Ahman Green, Jermichael Finley and John Michels scheduled to board the bus, along with Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy.
The Tailgate Tour will stop in Milwaukee on April 8, Madison on April 9, La Crosse on April 10 and Wausau on April 11 before wrapping up in Green Bay on April 12, with a variety of surprise and planned visits to be held in each area.
The fan-favorite Tailgate Tour will appear at nonprofit fundraising events each day and will stop along the route at schools, hospitals, businesses, retirement homes and community centers to present donations and giveaway items and visit with fans of all ages. To allow for further opportunities for players and alumni to interact with as many fans as possible while raising money for the nonprofits, fans should note that there will once again be no formal autograph sessions.
