If you will be attending the Breakfast on Friday, we’ve provided some information below that may prove helpful.

Due to construction around the Palestra among other things, we highly recommend wearing sneakers (or flats) on Friday. After all, we are in a Basketball gym.

Using a Ride share service is highly encouraged. Parking is limited plus it is better for the environment.

The Drop off location is 215 South 33rd Street. Walk across “Shoemaker Green” (the lawn in front of the Palestra) to the event entrance. Click Here for map
