Sustainable Transportation around Corvallis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Corvallis is a small, mostly flat city and all the conference venues are within walking distance. If you want to get there faster, there are several choices. The Beaver Bus shuttle has a stop right outside the conference venue. It will run its regular routes on Wednesday the 18th and Friday the 20th. It does not run on national holidays and weekends, so no bus on Thursday or Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Banquet will be held in the Corvallis Community Center. It is about a 20 minute easy, straight walk from the conference center. You can get there much faster on one of the 350 scooters or 50 bikes that you can rent through the Veo app. We have rented a Beaver bus to shuttle people back and forth between the banquet\/dance and the conference center. It only seats 22, so please give priority to those with mobility issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
