You may see AJ Dillon with a deputy mayor alongside with him the next time he comes to Door County. A team bonding trip to Door County once again grabbed headlines as pictures and videos surfaced on social media over Memorial Day weekend, featuring players enjoying time on a boat and an impromptu race between receiver Christian Watson and Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles, who is married to Packers defensive back Jonathan Owens. The thousands, if not millions of views of the pictures and videos turn into tremendous earned media value for Door County. Destination Door County Chief Communications Officer Jon Jarosh says whether it is AJ Dillon, Simone Biles, or another Packers celebrity, it is about the authenticity as much as it is about the reach.
Jarosh says Destination Door County looks forward to working with the Packers on whatever their role can be for the 2025 NFL Draft, adding that it certainly helps their case that several Packers executives, including team president Mark Murphy, have put roots down in Door County.
