EAA’s Camp Scholler to open next April to help with 2025 NFL Draft accommodations
Campsites with electric and water hookups to be available April 19-29
EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (August 15, 2024) — The Experimental Aircraft Association will make its improved drive-in Camp Scholler campsites available in late April 2025 to help meet the demand for accommodations during the NFL Draft to be held at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The NFL Draft is scheduled to take place on April 24-26, 2025.
“With hundreds of thousands of football fans coming to northeast Wisconsin, accommodations are at a premium and people have asked if we would be available to assist,” said Chris Farrell, EAA Director of Events. “As our drive-in campground is well prepared for large groups during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh and other events, we are able to open Camp Scholler for 10 days while the football world is focused on Green Bay.”
Beginning on Friday, August 16, campsites may be reserved through the EAA website at EAA.org/Camping/Football. Each campsite is available from April 19-29, with a three-night minimum at $175 per night (which includes all taxes and fees). Payment is due in full at the time of reservation.
Each campsite has water and electrical availability for one camper or recreational vehicle, as well as space for one motor vehicle or two motorcycles. In addition, extra motor vehicles may be parked in an overflow parking lot for $25 per day per vehicle.
With each reserved campsite, EAA is also providing two complimentary EAA Aviation Museum passes and a 20 percent discount certificate for merchandise at the Barnstormer Boutique inside the museum (passes and discount good through April 30, 2025).
The campground will then close on April 29 to ready the area for EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2025, which is July 21-27. Camp Scholler traditionally opens to welcome AirVenture volunteers and attendees in late June.
“Our campground’s easy access to Green Bay via Interstate 41 is an advantage for NFL fans attending the draft,” Farrell said. “This unique opportunity also gives NFL draft fans an opportunity to discover the world of flight as shared through EAA’s Spirit of Aviation.”
