The Course
How do I get there?
Here is the address for your GPS or to get directions online: 1311 N Us Highway 1, Titusville, FL 32796
Here is a map on Google I made. Please note that buses park at the soccer/softball complex off of Jay Jay Road (noted by the bus on the map). Cars and other vehicles should park at Brevard Community College, entering at either of the two entrances (denoted by the green and blue pins on the map).
How much is parking?
Parking fee is $5.
What is the course like? Can I get a course map?
Please check out the course and print your own map. We will have 5K maps available in each packet. 8K maps please print them... they are color so we can't make copies to include these.

T-Shirts
Official meet t-shirts are available for sale at the meet headquarters for $15. We have white, gray, pink, blue, and yellow available for sale.

Meet headquarters will be the big tent.
