CONFERENCE ARRIVAL / DEPARTURE INFORMATION:

Group travel to and from the full conference (both days with an overnight stay Wednesday) is included in the conference fee.  Be ready to board the shuttle at 7:30am on Wednesday from the Point Loma Nazarene University Golden Gym lot (signs will mark the way once you enter PLNU’s campus).  You may keep your car in one of the gym lots for the duration of the conference.   Plan to return to PLNU around 10pm on Thursday night.  If in need of hotel options in San Diego immediately before or after the conference, please ask for the “PLNU Guest Rate” at any of the hotels listed here.
