Richmond Redskins?

[KI Skins Fan]

It's just Training Camp. The Skins camped in Carlisle, PA for many years. Why not Richmond?

I will always believe that Super Bowl Champions are born in Carlisle, PA...just like the sign out front of Biddle Field said!

This would be amazing!

But i didnt think City Stadium was for sale? Maybe a temporary lease type deal? Also fyi City Stadium is a dump in a crappy surrounding neighborhood (not as bad as Landover though). But its right next to Cary Town (extreme poor man's George Town), walking distance to the Museum District and The Fan (where bars & restaurants are), but best of all very easy and immediate access to the highways.

They typically like some isolation but not too remote, at least it seems that way from previous camps. That area isn't that bad, has a little isolation & Cary Town & the fan as you mentioned, have a lot going for them.

I would be there every day. They played Richmond Kickers games there. Now I think it is just high school football games and other special events.

looks like they just want to lease it for a week or two a year. from the article you posted:

Hawley emphasized that the team is looking at Richmond as a possible location for a summer camp, not the team's training facility, which also is on the move.

The Washington Post reported last week that the team is considering moving its training facility from Ashburn, in Loudoun County, to a site near RFK Stadium in the District of Columbia, closer to their stadium in Landover, Md.

Far from home like Mississippi. Players could eat at Leatha's barbeque and blow off steam by catching bands at the Thirsty Hippo. WIN.
