No St. Norbert College

The Packers will not be using their customary training-camp arrangements at St. Norbert College due to protocols put in place by the NFL that has clubs maximizing use of their own facilities to mitigate exposure to COVID-19.

Instead, as was the case last year, the Packers will use their facilities at Lambeau Field for practices, meetings and meals. Without the SNC dorm rooms, housing arrangements are being finalized, the team said.

The Packers had called SNC their training camp home since 1958.

According to the Greater Green Bay Convention and Visitors Bureau and a 2010 study by AECOM, training camp, along with Packers Family Night, presented by Bellin Health, could attract approximately 90,000 visitors from across the nation and as many as 20 foreign countries, with a total economic impact estimated at approximately $9 million.
