Packers to open 2025 training camp on Wednesday, July 23
Packers to open 2025 training camp on Wednesday, July 23 The Green Bay Packers will open training camp in 2025 on Wednesday, July 23, the team announced Wednesday. Two dates are set for training camp -- the start, on Wednesday, July 23, and Family Night, on Saturday, Aug. 2 -- but the rest is still being finalized and will be released at a later date. Last year, the Packers announced training camp dates on June 17, and the team's annual shareholder's meeting lined up with the first practice. The Packers have two joint practices and three preseason games on the 2025 schedule. Matt LaFleur's team will go to Indianapolis to have a joint practice with the Broncos and then host the Seattle Seahawks for a joint practice before the preseason finale. In 2024, the Packers had 18 public practices, including joint practices and Family Night. The Packers still have a few portions of the offseason workout program to get through first. The team has OTAs over the next two weeks before a mandatory three-day minicamp running June 10-12. In 2023, the Packers reported for training camp on Tuesday, July 25 and held their first practice on Wednesday, July 26. Last year, the Packers held their first practice on Monday, July 22 -- an earlier start because Green Bay opened the season on the Friday night of Week 1.

Burkburnett ISD hosts Family Night during Month of the Military Child
BURKBURNETT (KFDX/KJTL)—As the month of the military child continues, Burkburnett ISD held a family night to honor students from both civilian and military families. Whether it was through wearing purple for the Month of the Military Child or Burkburnett's orange and black, students from civilian and military families alike were welcome at the annual Family Night. For Superintendent Brad Owen, the celebration is perfectly timed. 'We're about 26% military-connected students in our school district, which means a lot to us,' Owen said. 'And so, we want to ensure that we celebrate all of our students who are connected to the military in some way, shape, or form.' The family night was a sharing program for students of all ages to show their hard work over the year to their families, but for those in the Student2Student program, like Carlie Ash, it's a way to continue integrating kids in military families into the school district. 'Our Student2Student club does a great job of promoting things like this, to make sure that they feel welcome,' Ash said. 'This is a great opportunity for military students to get to know the community they're new to and just learn to love it like we do.' Getting to know a new community is something fellow student Gracyn Haas is all too familiar with. 'I was a military child not so long ago, and so I know how it feels coming into a community,' Haas said. 'And whenever it's such a tight-knit community like this, it's easy to find friends where you fit in.' As someone who has seen both sides of the civilian and military life, Jimmy Beeson, one of the Burkburnett school board members, applauds the district's efforts to keep military students engaged. 'They don't have the opportunity to build some of those long-term relationships because they get uprooted,' Beeson said. 'But to have schools that, no kidding, focus on them and make sure that they're made a part of the school district and the family, that's huge.' When it comes to recognizing kids during the military child month, no gesture is too large. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
