Some Traditions Never Change

Green Bay Packer training camp has commenced and it is a time-honored tradition that kids will queue-up with their bicycles at Lambeau Field waiting for a player to ride their bike to practice across the street.  This started with Coach Lombardi and like anything with the history and tradition of the Green Bay Packers the institution continues.

Five Dream Fleet bikes provided by the Packers and American Family Insurance returned for another year.  Children from the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Green Bay have the opportunity to ride the special bikes with the players.      

Also featured was an adaptive bike with a specially designed wheel that uses the rider’s hands and arms to pedal.  The player was joined by Francis Kahle, a 4-year-old from Wauwatosa .  Thanks to Variety and Brent Emery - Francis joined the player in riding his own special adaptive bike.
