Event Parking and Lodging
Parking
Parking permits were mailed to those who purchased conference permits for use in the K-State parking garage. You MUST bring this permit with you and use it to enter and exit the parking garage. If you do not receive your permit in the mail by Friday (October 16) or if you have questions, please contact the conference registration office at registration@k-state.edu or 785-532-5569.
Parking is available in the parking garage adjacent to the K-State Student Union. Conference permits are $5 per day and can be purchased when you register for the conference. Because permits will be mailed prior to the conference, the deadline for ordering permits is October 2. Refunds for parking permits are not available unless the permit can be sold to another conference participant. If you park in the garage and do not purchase a conference permit, the regular garage rates will apply and parking cannot be guaranteed. The current rate is $1.50 per hour or $12 per day. Participants staying at the Holiday Inn are encouraged to use complimentary hotel parking and walk to the K-State Student Union.
