1. Zone assigned to your activity and booth/table(s) numbers- please see the attached map and zone/table allocation document. Note that the event is being held in the South Quad of the campus, although a few activities are being held indoors as well. There are five outdoor zones, and they are color coded-

2. Parking: Parking is free for all attendees and volunteers in lots A4 or A11 on the CSUCI campus. These lots can be accessed from either the University Drive or Potrero Road entrances to the campus. A map of the campus is attached.

3. ADA Parking/Accommodations: If you require ADA parking or other ADA accommodations, please park in lot A7 (see attached map).

4. Supply/Material Drop-Off: If you have bulky items or supplies for your activity, you can either park temporarily in lot A5 and walk your materials in to the South Quad (see attached map) or, if you have larger items, you can enter from the Potrero Road entrance to the campus and drive around the south end of the campus and through the South Quad. A logistics volunteer will be available to guide you to your zone/booth. You will be provided carts/dollies by these volunteers to haul your materials to your booth but if you have your own carts/dollies, please do bring them as we have a large number of activities that will require the use of the same. If you use our dollies/carts, please make sure to bring them back to the logistics volunteer once you have unloaded all your supplies.

Note: For those whose activity tubs are with us currently, please note that all these tubs will be placed in the center of the zone assigned to you and you need to pick up the tubs and take them to your respective tables for set up. Hand carts and wagons will be available.

5. Arrival on March 8: All volunteers are strongly encouraged to arrive at the site latest by 11.30am. The event starts at 1pm and we want to make sure that your booth is fully set up and functional by then. We also want to give you enough time to move your cars to the designated parking lots post unloading of supplies. Please consider arriving even earlier if you have a large number of supplies to drop off. Volunteers will be available from 11 AM on to direct you to your booth.

6. Check-in: All volunteers will be required to check-in at the check-in table via a QR code (which we will provide). Once you are checked-in, you will be given a ticket for the pizzas. Only those volunteers who have a ticket will be able to avail of the free pizzas.

7. Lunch: We have ordered pizzas for lunch, and they will be available on a first-come, first-served basis starting at 11:30 AM. You can also purchase lunch at the Islands Cafe or snacks/ hot dogs from a booth outside of the Islands Cafe.

8. Release of liability forms: For all EXTERNAL partners (not CI volunteers), please make sure that you complete the Release of liability form and bring it with you if you have not already completed and uploaded it. The liability form can be found here:
