FINAL UPDATE, February 4, 2010: Only a couple days until the main event and all systems are a "GO!"...
All registered participants should enter the USAFA via the South Gate near the intersection of North Academy Boulevard and I-25. Security has been provided a list of participants so everyone should have no problem getting onto the USAFA and to the event.
Please remember the items I highlighted via email this past Monday. Some keys...
- This is a uniformed Scouting event. Please wear your uniform for your position.
- Bring paper and something to write with. (Business/contact cards are also a good idea!)
- Budget about ten minutes to get from the gate to the event venue. Pay attention to the posted speed limit. Signs will direct you along the way to parking, located just west of the Community Center.
- Covered drinks and light snacks are allowed in the classrooms. There will be no food/beverage services other than lunch. Please "leave no trace"...
- We will kick-off promptly at 8:00 a.m.
- If for some reason you cannot check-in prior to our opening ceremony, all check-in packets will be available at the Information Desk in the Academic Building following the opening (~8:30 a.m.)
- Check-out will be done following the closing ceremony. If you must leave early, please stop by the Information Desk to pick up your materials.
- Thank your instructors for their time and support of your University of Scouting!
