Scenes from Training Camp, Week One

There is an estimated 30,000 possible visitors to Redskins Training Camp this coming Saturday!

 Here are some scenes we captured from the first week.

Our friend Sandra from Classic Party Rentals, brought her husband John and grandson, Ian.

Ian and the Washington Redskins Mascot.

File this under fun things to do at training camp - Redskins Photo booth locker! 

This crowd shot captured the beautiful day. Look how gorgeous those tents look!

Another crowd shot.  The cherry picker carries a film crew, filming practice.

Be sure to leave with your Redskins gear. Buy it all here!

Last, but certainly not least, our very own Phyllis pictured here with Hall-of-Famer, Art Monk! 

Great first week!

Richmond, Are you Ready for some Football?!

Finally, after much anticipation the day has finally arrived....

Open Day is here and it really has turned out to be the perfect day.  After just a little bit of rain over night and in the morning, the skies have cleared and it has become the coolest and least humid day that we have had in several weeks.  Check out this photo from the Richmond Times-Dispatch Redskins blog of the fans enjoying the festivities and the cooler weather. 

We don't have to wonder how excited some Richmonders are, there were crowds forming at 3:30 am this morning and according to this Diane Portee was first in line at 1:30 am.  That is dedication!

We have our own tent at camp and our very own Kim DeHart (who is a HUGE Skins fan) decorated it.  She claims she is not finished.  If there was an award for the most team spirit I think Kim would win it.

  This how our tent looked this morning, but Kim is thinking of adding more decorations.

Finally, we at Commonwealth Event Company are certainly not the only ones who are suffering basking in Redskins fever.  Look at what Kim spotted at the McDonald's on Broad

We are happy to create a parking spot here in our lot, RGIII!
