Ground Transport
Groome Transportation operates a shuttle from MSP. It makes one stop on the outskirts of Eau Claire. You’ll need to arrange a ride from the shuttle stop into town. There’s also a Summit Rideshare Google Group. Click this link and ask to join the group.

Parking
When you register for the Summit, you will receive an invitation from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire (UWEC) for a parking permit, valid March 24, 2023 only in certain spots in two parking lots. It doesn’t cost anything, but you do need to register the vehicle you plan to drive. Our hosts asked us to please register for parking before Friday morning, and have indicated that parking permits otherwise cannot be guaranteed.
Your license plate is your permit; there’s no physical pass or tag to pick up. Once you get an email receipt from UWEC Parking and Transportation Services, you’ll know you have free parking in ‘S’ or ‘F’ designated parking stalls in the Phillips Lot (south of Davies Student Center, where Summit proceedings will be held) or ‘F’ designated stalls in Hibbard Lot as overflow. Both lots are plotted on the map above.
If you registered for the Summit but haven’t received a parking pass invitation, please email unsethjl@uwec.edu.
