what are the odds of them having camp open to the public next thursday? i'm thinking not good cause of the game on friday, but mrs. b, you'll know more than me! i'm trying to decide what days i'm going to go next week.
also, does anybody know the what date the last day of camp is?

The odds are 100% NO. They will be flying out on Thursday for the game on Friday.

And... my guess is the 16th since they won't have an open practice on Wed, 8/17, the day before the game (it's always closed to the public so they can do their "secret stuff". The game is on Thursday so they'll likely have Friday off... Then I leave for vacation on Saturday, the 21st and the Patriots KNOW that they can't hold camp if I'm not able to be there... , so that will be that! Seriously, my guess is Tuesday, 8/16 for the public.

Mrs. B, you said that on one night no one was assigned to sign, it was also the night that it was held in the stadium, I was wondering if just in the stadium practices no one is scheduled to sign or each time threw the rotation at the end. I'm going Tuesday night and if it all falls correctly with the O-line signing in the morning no one would be assigned at the evening one, I'm just trying to plan accordingly in what to bring, any help is appreciated! thanks!!

It's only the nights that they're in the stadium that nobody is scheduled... all of the practices on the fields in the back have someone signing. HTH! ;D

Mrs. B,
Is the autograph signing at TC the same as last year - leaving practice early to line up outside the Pro Shop? and if so, how far into the practice do you need to go get in line in order to be sure of getting a spot? I tried it last year and had zero luck and could not get autographs at the end of practice because the kids rushed the ropes and nobody else can get near the front without pushing and shoving.
I am on vacation next week and that's my only opportunity to get to training camp so I really appreciate your reports! Thanks!

Although they do have that signing outside of the proshop, the signings that I've been referring to have all been on the practice fields along the ropes. I've never gone down to the BOA gate so I have no idea who's signed there all year. Best bet is to stay near the field and catch as many as you can.

We went to training camp Friday night July 29th. We got many autographs Izzo,Grabel,Willie,Chad Brown, and my daughter was lucky enough to get Tom Brady's.She's 9 yrs old and was so excited Tom chose her out of the large crowd! It was a blast!
