WILLAMETTE CLASSIC -- CORVALLIS, OR

The Willamette Classic is May 12-13, 20121.  The teams play at various venues on the Oregon State University campus.   Access to pools are available via the Tournament website links above. Teams will be leaving via car pool (arranged on a team-by-team basis with the assistance of the chaperone and/or Focal) on Friday, May 11th and returning after tournament play Sunday, May 13th.  We make hotel arrangements for the teams to stay Friday and Saturday night; and based on our hotel agreements, we must guarantee that teams stay both nights.  Parents are free to pick up rooms at the hotel their daughters are staying at and call the hotel directly (as listed below) in order to make reservations.  Please note that many hotels require a 2-night stay.  Rooms are limited, so act fast.  If you are not able to get into the hotels we list below, you may have success checking the hotel listing on the tournament page.  Some hotels might have rooms available in small quantities: http://www.willamettevolleyballclassic.com/lodging

HOW MUCH MONEY DOES MY DAUGHTER NEED FOR FOOD, PER DAY?

Current per diem for are as follows:

Breakfast $8 per day

Lunch $12 per day

Dinner $26 per day

You don’t need to base your child’s allowance off of that – that is just a guideline.  It is less than that for hotels that have continental breakfast.  If your team’s hotel does not have continental breakfast, your best option is to collect money for cooler food and have teams eat breakfast in your chaperon’s hotel room.  Another thing to factor in is that you will only really eat one meal in a restaurant a day.  Lunch will also most likely be out of a cooler as well.  It’s not an exact science, just a guideline.

Please take a moment to review both our TRAVEL RULES and our STANDARDS OF CONDUCT (from Player/Parent Handbook).  Proper conduct on the road, in the hotel and at your playing sites is vital for players, coaches, chaperones and parents alike.  Please help us uphold the integrity of our club
