“With the expected snowfall Saturday night and into Sunday, Lambeau Field will be in need of snow removal on Sunday morning, Jan. 12, ahead of the Packers-Seahawks game.”
Participants will be provided with shovels and will receive a $12 an hour compensation “upon completion of work.”
Forecasts suggest that Green Bay will be hit with two rounds of heavy snowfall between Friday and Sunday, according to the National Weather Service.
