Fans headed to Lambeau Field this fall, assuming that is permitted, will need to make alternate plans on game day. The Kewaunee Area Chamber is not providing its Packer Bus service for the 2020-21 season due to COVID-19 uncertainty, says President Vicki Vollenweider.
Even if the Green and Gold allow fans through the turnstiles at some point, the chamber was looking at having to operate at half capacity, which would mean a substantial increase in cost for riders, or losing money on the venture. In past years, the bus made stops at various bars and lodgings in Algoma, Kewaunee, and Luxemburg.
This fall will see some chamber activities go on as scheduled. Vollenweider says the organization has already committed to the annual Christmas Stroll. That event continues to grow in popularity for “deer widows” when their husbands are out hunting the weekend before Thanksgiving. The Christkindlmarkt’s fate is still undecided.
