Concrete Canoe Competition Teams<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nConcrete Canoe teams should bring non-slip water shoes for launching and getting in and out of the canoe. The Bayou side is concrete lined, but can be slippery. You may also want to bring some sort of pad, blow up raft, or floatation noodles to help park your canoe and protect it from the concrete lined bayou side.<\/span><\/p>\n

Surveying Competition Teams<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nSurveying teams are reminded to read over the rules to check that they are bringing the equipment needed for their competition. Surveying teams should also bring a printed copy of their topo map to display for public viewing and for judging during the presentation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sustainable Solutions Teams<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nFor teams competing in the Sustainable Solutions Competition, bring your easel with you if you have your own. UNO will provide a limited number of easels for the poster presentations.<\/span>
\nPreferred dimensions would be 63-66\u201d tall, tripod-type easel.\u00a0 If your team needs to purchase one, Amazon has inexpensive, portable easels<\/a> (click link<\/a> for example).\u00a0Teams will be responsible for the shipping\/transport of easels and projects to and from the symposium.<\/span><\/p>\n

Parking<\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\nNo events will take place at any of the hotels. Overnight trailer parking is provided at the UNO University Center Parking Lot. Pick up a trailer parking pass at registration. Parking close to Bayou St. John on Friday is limited to street side parking. The map<\/a> indicates additional public parking that is located \u00bd mile from the event site.
