Just 43 days until the kick off of the 2017 NFL season, and that means it’s time for training camps!  Most teams are getting ready to head off tomorrow or Friday, and will spend the next few weeks  either at their own training facilities or at a major state college.

The purpose of a training camp is not only to prepare the athletes physically for the upcoming season, but mentally as well.  The camp lets team members acclimate to each other, as its one of the first major events for the recently recruited rookies.

Cincinnati Bengals fans, on Saturday, August 5th at 3pm, the team will be hosting a “family day” practice at the Paul Brown Stadium.  Not only can you check out the team in action, but you can see the stadium in its full glory.  A survey ranked the Cincinnati stadium as one of the nation’s top football venues, and with the UBU Speed S-5 field, it’s in the ranks with the Superdome and the Metrodome.  Gates open at noon, practice starts at 3pm, and there will be kid-friendly attractions for the family to enjoy!

Some of the attractions include:  Inflatables, Face Painters, Balloon Artists, Photo Booth, Ben-Gal Cheer Zone, Play 60 Zone,  and Crafts.  The first 2,000 kids to each practice will receive a give-away item.  Fans in attendance can enter to win a Bengals Prize Pack by posting their pictures on social media and tagging #LetsRoar.

Bengals fans, be sure to check out this awesome event!
