You will be parking in the Central Parking garage. If it is open, please enter the garage at the entrance between 3rd and 4th Avenue ("A" Garage) - NOT the entrance between 2nd and 3rd Avenue ("B" Garage). On Sundays, sometimes the B Garage is the only entrance and you will have no choice - no big problem other than a longer walk perhaps. After you park, go back down to Commerce Street and proceed to the CMT front entrance. If there is not an attendant there, call the phone number listed below.
Arrival Time is 9:15am each day. This is important. Facilities orientation time will be prior to the allotted mixing time, but mixing starts promptly at 10am and concludes at 6pm. Parking and lunch will be provided.
