All camp registrants must check in at the Seahawks Training Camp Parking and Transportation Center, located at 822-B N. 10th Place in The Landing shopping center (west of The Pro Shop). Fans are asked to bring their printed tickets for scanning and valid photo ID to confirm registration and receive camp wristbands. Youth under the age of 15 must be accompanied by an adult and children under the age of two are not required to be registered.

Fan activities include the following:

• Complimentary face painting, inflatable games and photo-ops with both Blitz and the Sea Gals.
