With all that's going on in and around Lambeau Field, there's never been a better time to be a Packer Backer.

On Thursday, the Packers announced plans for the first annual Packers Fan Fest, a three-day celebration of Packers football for the entire family that will take place in the Lambeau Field Atrium in mid-March.

On Sunday, the Packers will host the arch-rival Minnesota Vikings in the teams' first-ever playoff meeting.

Last summer, thousands of fans experienced Lambeau Field and the Lambeau Field Atrium to its fullest as the Packers held their training camp at the Don Hutson Center -- the team's practice facility located just across the street from Lambeau Field -- and the annual Packers Family Night for the first time since the stadium renovation was completed in 2003.

This Friday, Packers executive vice president/COO John Jones will stop by to field some of your questions and talk about the success that Lambeau Field has seen since undergoing the renovation and what to expect in the coming months at 1265 Lombardi Avenue.

If you plan to take part in Friday's chat, which will begin at approximately 3 p.m. CT., please be sure to remember the following tips:

Be courteous and respectful. Packers.com will not post any profanity, and chat guests are unlikely to answer questions that are rude in nature. If you have 'tough' questions, think about how you want to word them so they will get answered.

Be thoughtful. Among the hundreds of questions submitted, the ones that stand out tend to get the best answers. Anticipate some of the common questions and try to ask something unique. Chats are often bogged down with the same questions being asked over and over again. Be different.

Send questions once. Sending the same question multiple times will not get your question noticed. Instead, your submissions will be flagged and ignored.

Finally, remember that this is your chance to chat with members of the Packers. Utilize the option to its fullest. We hope you have fun!
