Shovelers Needed Thursday Morning For Lambeau Field Snow Removal
Now Playing:

posted 12/26/2007

The Green Bay Packers Wednesday put out the "help wanted" request to assist with snow removal Thursday from Lambeau Field.

Ted Eisenreich, the Packers' director of facility operations, is seeking recruits - as many as 300 - to shovel out Lambeau Field tomorrow, Dec. 27, in preparation for the team's regular season finale, Dec. 30, vs. the Detroit Lions.

He asks all who might be interested in lending a hand to report to the Mills Fleet Farm Gate on Lambeau Field's west side, beginning at 8 a.m. Thursday and continuing throughout the day.

The Packers will provide shovels to all who come to help.

Shovelers, who need to be at least 15 years old, will receive $8 per hour, with payment to be made immediately upon completion of their work, Eisenreich said.

This is the second such request this season. More than 300 people assisted with shoveling earlier this month, Dec. 5.
