Team Leaders, this is an important update. The Walkover Bridge (the blue one) from Canal Park to the DECC is closed as of this afternoon. We’ve had several people try to prevent this but the harbor engineering group prevailed.

Here is a map of Canal Park and the DECC area:

The walk from hotels in Canal Park to the DECC should follow the Baywalk to Harbor Drive and then across the DECC property. This is a pretty healthy walk and could be up to 1 mile. Please make sure your students dress appropriately and limit the amount of “stuff” that they carry.

Regards, Mark Lawrence
