Event comments

Restrooms are available at the Eldridge House, and along the course. Walk box is usually kept at the registration desk, on the left side near floor when walkers are facing the registration area. Desk personnel often change & may not know where to look. KU football & basketball game days will be congested. Walkers may choose to detour from the walk directions. Lawrence is located in Douglas County, and is the county seat.
