The following hotels have blocks of rooms at a negotiated rate. We anticipate that transportation on school buses will also be provided back and forth from these locations to the Mercersburg Academy campus each day of the competition.
This list is provided for informational purposes only. Mercersburg Academy does not endorse any particular property.
Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) is 90 minutes away and is served by all major domestic carriers and many international carriers. (Visitors arriving from abroad usually find Dulles the most convenient airport.) Baltimore/Washington International Airport (BWI) is also a 90-minute drive from campus and is serviced by all major domestic carriers. We do not recommend flying into Washington National Airport (DCA) and will not provide transportation from this airport to our campus.
We will provide transportation to the hotels where we have blocks of rooms reserved on Friday, April 25, and return to the airports in designated windows after the competition is completed. We will ask teams to indicate the desire to use this transportation when registering so we can plan accordingly.
The Mercersburg Academy campus has plenty of free parking, including two large parking lots near the Hale Field House (see map).
Lunch options will be provided to all of the participants on competition days. Cooking equipment is not allowed inside the venue.
The use of alcohol and other drugs is strictly prohibited by all participants, mentors, chaperones, and spectators. Mercersburg Academy is a tobacco-free campus, and smoking, vaping, or use of other tobacco products is not allowed.
