Parking

Parking at the stadium is NOT permitted for rehearsal, so it is recommended you park wherever you would park for the game and then walk to the stadium. More information about parking options is available here. Lot B is recommended as an alternative to the official parking options for the game, but be advised it may fill up quickly. Most metered spots as well as commuter and faculty/staff lots are free on the weekends (observe all posted signs). Visitor lots now charge on weekends but they are available as a backup if nothing else is open.

Instruments for Alumni Band

We may have a limited number of instruments available to borrow for the day. The list will be available in September. If you need to borrow equipment, you will need to meet at the equipment closet off the band room between 7:30 and 8:00 AM. We won't be able to bring equipment to the field. Instruments will need to be returned to the closet after the game.

IF YOU NEED TO BORROW AN INSTRUMENT, EMAIL This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. ASAP.
