Transportation
Swampcon will again be held at the Reitz Union, which is located at 655 Reitz Union Drive on the University of Florida Campus. Directions and parking instructions are helpfully provided by the Reitz Union’s website.
If you are interested in sustainability, we encourage you to donate to Neutral Gators to offset your carbon footprint and support tree planting and weatherization projects across Gainesville. Below is a link to Neutral Gators Carbon Calculator to determine how much CO2 your round-trip transportation puts into the atmosphere, and how much it would cost to offset it.
We encourage you to take alternative transportation such as walking, biking, or using RTS to get the Reitz Union from your hotel.
Additionally, if you are looking for an inexpensive, fast, and easy way to share a ride with someone else in your area going to the convention and willing to give a round trip ride to Gainesville try Zimride.
If you plan to take the bus from your hotel, here is the weekend RTS bus schedule:
Ask your hotel’s front desk for the best way to walk and/or bike to the campus.
This website might be helpful if you want to try and map out your route ahead of time.
http://www.routesprout.com/ is another useful website that will help you “form your own trip” by joining together with other individuals. When your trip has a high enough demand, your route will “sprout.”
