Unloading instructions for vendors: There is a loading zone/ dock area between the Biomedical Research Tower and Tzagournis Research Facility. You can pull in here to unload before you park, if needed. There will be volunteers from the Postdoc Association who will assist with unloading to help this move as quickly as possible. The Postdoc Association will let parking services know about the event so they do not ticket anyone. We still ask that you keep your hazards on while in the loading dock area.
Room will be available for set up starting at 9AM, and we have it reserved until 3:30PM. So there will be plenty of time for tear down.
