OVERNIGHT ACCOMMODATIONS

 

Through funding from Doane Grant Thornton, accommodations for a limited number of out-of-town students who are unable to drive to Antigonish Saturday morning will be paid for Friday night, but transportation to Antigonish is the responsibility of the participants.

The booked rooms have two queen beds and are within walking distance of St. Francis Xavier University. As the number of rooms are limited, they will be assigned based on the distance to Antigonish (priority for those that need to drive further) and the quantity of teams from the same university (priority to provide funds to support one room per university) and based on the order of registration (priority for earlier registered teams).
