Planes, Trains, and Automobiles: Getting to UNCO12 East

(including all wheeled vehicles with two or more wheels)

This post is meant to help you make your travel arrangements to Stony Point in May.

Highlighted are the most cost effective ways to get to Stony Point. Other options are listed on Stony Point’s website with additional fees. I have linked to them at the conclusion of this post.

Stony Point Conference Center is located about an hour outside of Manhattan near – are you ready for this – Stony Point, NY.

Remember, UNCO check-in is from 2-4pm Monday, May 21, and UNCO concludes at 4:00pm, Wednesday, May 23, so if you’d like to arrive early or stay an extra day to add flexibility to your travel schedule, we can work with you.

For an extra fee, you can stay at Stony Point on Sunday night for early arrivals or stay over Wednesday night for late departures. We are confirming details with Stony Point and will make those details available as soon as possible.
