SEPTEMBER 23 UPDATE
We are 8 days and a wake up out from the Annual Conference!
- OFF-SITE parking
- Expect parking to be tight at the Conference. Off-site parking (3 minute drive to the Conference)
- Please consider car-pooling to/from your hotel as much as possible.
- When car pooling, consider dropping off your passengers at the conference first and then parking off-site. This will help reduce the volume of people waiting on a shuttle to get them to/from the conference.
- Off-site Parking Address:
Saint Kateri Tekakwitha Catholic Church
22508 Copper Hill Dr
Santa Clarita, CA 91350 - Best point of entry is the entrance on Copper Hill Drive that is across from Tamarack Lane.
- To exit…if making a left turn, the point of exit is the lower driveway closer to Seco Canyon Rd so that you can make a legal left turn on Copper Hill Dr.
