Smith Walbridge Clinics: Travel Options and Transportation Information

Public Transportation Options

EARLY ARRIVALS AND LATE DEPARTURES / APPROXIMATE TRAVEL TIMES

For those participants using public transportation, there are several options to reduce traveling expenses. For early arrivals or late departures, additional nights in the dorms can be requested at a rate of $20 per night. Participants will be supervised at all times. If departing on the final day of the clinic, schedule the departure time after 1:00 PM, if possible, following the closing ceremonies (NOON).

Extra nights are not available June 30 or July 21. Call us to discuss other options for those dates.
