Thousands expected at Arizona Cardinals Red and White Scrimmage

FLAGSTAFF, AZ - If you're planning to head up to Flagstaff this weekend for Cards Camp, you may want to do it early because of large crowds.

The Arizona Cardinals' highly anticipated Red and White Scrimmage will take place Saturday at 11:30 a.m. on the Northern Arizona University campus.

Before that scrimmage, gates for the autograph session will open at 9:45 a.m. Children can begin lining up to meet with the players, and the signing will be from 10:45 to 11:10 a.m.

Because of the thousands of fans expected, NAU has a special parking plan for Saturday.

Sections of McConnell Drive and San Francisco Street around the Skydome will be closed from 6:30 a.m. through the end of practice.

If you're driving up from the Valley, you're asked to take the McConnell Drive exit off Interstate 17.

From there, you can make a right turn at the stop sign and head to Pine Knoll.

Then you can turn right at Pine Knoll and into a large parking lot on the right.

Shuttle service will be provided every five to 10 minutes from the lot to the practice field.

Parking for disabled individuals will be directly east of the Skydome lot, just north of Pine Knoll.
