All visitors arriving to campus must present a Real ID, as the United States Coast Guard Academy is a military base. Please remind your families about the REAL ID requirement.  More information can be found on the Academy’s website: www.uscga.edu including acceptable forms of alternative ID.

Finally, and most importantly, please communicate to the families that access to the campus on 6/30 will be through the Rowing Center Gate.  

This is because 6/30 is our first day of boot camp or Reporting-In Day.  The Academy is trying to keep the two groups separate and the lines through both gates moving quickly.  Access to upper campus will be blocked off for the day.  I’ve attached a map for clarification.  

On 7/1, whole campus access will be available again, and campus entry will once again be routed through the front gate (off of Route 32).

      HOTELS

      Our Hotel Policies:

      Simply stated, if your team is traveling 75 miles or more to the event’s destination city, your team MUST stay at one of the approved tournament partner hotels. Teams are required to designate a representative to block off rooms for their team through OUR hotel portal and/or staff. We do not have a full “stay to play” policy but we do require 75% of your families/coaches to stay with one of our partner hotels through our website. 

      Couple of important notes:

      1. We do have a waiver policy, if teams do NOT want to book through us but want to participate in our events. Those teams will pay a waiver of $750.00 per team, in addition to their registration fee. The waiver fee will be added to your invoice once requested.
      2. Prior to schedule release, if teams are not in compliance according to our hotel policies, they can stay in the event if the waiver is paid in full or they will not be scheduled for the event.
      3. For more details on our hotel policies and to stay in compliance, please click here.
