The Lower Hearst Parking Garage is a little tricky to find. Once you arrive at the UC Berkeley campus, head east on Hearst Ave, cross Oxford, take a slight left turn (north) on LeConte and make a tight right turn (like a u-turn) to go south on Scenic. You will see the parking structure on the left. We will have some signage on the street to direct you to the right place.

If you are coming from Hwy 13 or 24, you take Tunnel Road, turn right on Claremont Ave. Which turns into Belrose Ave. Make a right onto Warring Street and follow it as it changes names to Piedmont Ave then to Gayley Road. Once you get to Hearst Ave. turn left. Follow Hearst Ave. to Scenic Ave. then turn right on Scenic. The Lower Hearst Parking Structure will be on your right. The event is on the top floor.

8-9 AM Registration and breakfast
