More than 42,000 tickets have now been sold for "Packers Family Night, presented by Fox 11," a new event to be staged in Lambeau Field Saturday night, August 7, Packers marketing director Jeff Cieply announced today.
The "Family Night" program, scheduled to begin at 7:30, will be highlighted by an intrasquad scrimmage, to be followed by a question-and-answer session with General Manager Ron Wolf and new Head Coach Ray Rhodes, along with an emcee.
There also will be a "first" in Packers history - a practice jersey giveaway - plus a fireworks display and a live television broadcast by WLUK-TV.

Autograph Sessions
With the first full-squad practice session of training camp scheduled Friday morning, fans again will have an opportunity to obtain autographs from Packers players and coaches on the practice field, Head Coach Ray Rhodes announced today.
Eight to 10 players and coaches will be available at every autograph session, following the morning practices, with each one including some starting players. Head Coach Ray Rhodes also will be available periodically during the 30-minute autograph periods.
As was the case last year, access to autographs will be BY TICKET ONLY, according to Jerry Parins, the Packers' corporate security officer. The tickets will be handed out by Packers personnel during the early portion of each morning practice.
The autograph periods will be held daily except for five dates - August 7, 8, 13, 14 and 15. August 21 will be the final day for autographs, with practice to be closed for the balance of the season the following day.
