Here's the press release on training camp we got last week... I took out some media-specific stuff, and had to just point to the calendar where the practice times are given...
CLEVELAND BROWNS 2007 TRAINING CAMP OPENS FRIDAY, JULY 27th AT THE BEREA
TRAINING FACILITY
AT&T presents Cleveland Browns Training Camp, in association with Cleveland Clinic Sports Health and National City Bank
The Cleveland Browns officially open the 2007 National Football
League campaign with the start of training camp on Friday, July 27 at the Browns
Training Facility in Berea, Ohio. Training camp practices are open to the public
free of charge and conclude on August 23.
The Browns will be on the field a total of 22 days with 29 practices
scheduled in Berea. Seven evening practices will take place throughout camp
which will allow families to attend after the work day. Please note that
there is a capacity at the Berea Training Facility during training camp.
Once that capacity is reached, fans will no longer be admitted for the remainder
of that practice.
Children 12 & under will be selected at random midway through each practice
session to obtain an autograph. Browns personnel will distribute brown and
orange tickets, which can be redeemed following practice at the appropriate
color-coded Player Autographs tent. Player signings at each tent will not be
announced. Browns players and coaches may be available along the fence
after practice for those who do not receive the ticket to the children’s
autograph session.
In addition to post-practice autographs, fans can purchase
Browns merchandise and enjoy concession stands featuring Donatos Pizza.
Parking is free and is located at Baldwin-Wallace College. All fans are to
enter the practice facility at the Beech Street entrance. Handicap parking is
available on Front Street at the Berea Recreation Center. A free shuttle to
training camp will be available in front of the parking lot at Berea Recreation
Center.
If practice is moved indoors due to inclement weather, it will
be closed to the public. Fans will not be permitted to watch any practice(s) in
the indoor training facility. Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied
by an adult. All practice times and dates are subject to change.
