“I haven’t been this excited in a long time,” said Chargers Controlling Owner and Chairman of the Board Dean Spanos. “I see it in the community, I see it within the organization – from our staff to our players to our coaches, it’s electrifying. Jim Harbaugh being here has brought a new sense of awareness about our team; how important it is to us and to the community. And now you have this new facility that everyone’s been talking about for more than two years now. Our fans are excited. You see it everywhere you go. I hear how they can’t wait to come to camp. Can’t wait to see ‘The Bolt.’ This took a lot of time and a lot of hard work, and I just feel fortunate that our staff, players and fans will be able to enjoy this for years to come.”
The Chargers begin training camp at The Bolt on July 24, but fans who pre-registered can tour the facility from July 13 to 14.
“Our fans are part of the Chargers family,” said Spanos. “This is theirs as much as it is ours, and I want them to feel that when they come here.”
