PARKING:
For on-campus parking, you MUST use the following link to purchase a Visitors pass, so that you can park in any GREEN space nearby Fike.
You can also park for free in the downtown Clemson Parking Garage, but it is ~15 minute walk from the venue, and would not be the easiest to carry all your equipment.
