Security/Parking: The USNA is currently in a heightened level of security readiness and awareness.

If your vehicle does not have a DoD decal, you are welcome to visit the USNA, but your vehicle will not be permitted onboard. Vehicles without Department of Defense identification stickers are not allowed to drive onto the academy’s grounds until further notice. You may use public parking areas and walk in thru Gate 1 or Gate 3, or park your vehicle at the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium and ride the Courtesy Shuttle. Shuttle Service will be provided throughout the day beginning one hour before warm-ups and ending one hour after the conclusion of the meet.

The only exception will be for drivers of vehicles with valid handicap decals and/or plates – and those vehicles will be searched. The Naval Academy does not issue temporary vehicle passes to general visitors. Other precautions and information include:

• Vehicles are encouraged to park at the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium off Rowe Boulevard. NAAC will have a representative at the Stadium parking lot for directing meet visitors. Free shuttle service is provided every 15-20 minutes beginning one hour before warm-ups. Stops are at Hubbard, Luce, and Alumni Halls, as well as the Visitor’s Center (across the street from the Lejeune Hall pool, where the meet will be held).

• The Navy Marine Corps Memorial Stadium is located by getting onto Roscoe Rowe Blvd towards Annapolis from Rte 50. Then turn right from Rowe Blvd onto either Farragut Rd. or Taylor Ave, proceeding about one block on either until you turn into the stadium parking lot. Suggest that you park near the south end (Taylor Ave entrance side) for a short walk to the shuttle bus.

• Every civilian visitor, over the age of 16, entering the academy should be prepared to show a photograph identification card and have his/her bags searched. All the security information released by the Naval Academy can be found on the school’s Web site at www.usna.edu, or by calling 410-293-1000. Although the security at the US Naval Academy is heightened, no problems are expected.

• The USNA hopes that, with the increased security, the visitors from area aquatics and swimming clubs and their guests will have the same wonderful experience they have had in the past, both at the academy and the city of Annapolis.
