On Friday afternoon, the Green Bay Packers announced their training camp schedule for 2014, so it's time to start making your summer vacation plans if you plan on making a special trip to Green Bay to see practice.
The Packers' players will report to camp on July 25th, the same day that they reported a year ago, with the first practice again taking place on July 26th. For the record, that opening practice is on a Saturday, and will be held early in the morning, at 8:20 AM Central Time.
As usual, the Packers will close their first week of practice with their Family Night, which this year will take the form of a typical practice instead of the traditional scrimmage. You may remember that offensive tackle Bryan Bulaga tore his ACL in Family Night a year ago, and it is possible that the injury may be a motivating factor for that change.
To break down every training camp-related event for you, we have the full schedule of all practices, preseason games, and associated events below.
