Making travel plans early is a good idea, and being early for everything Parent’s Weekend should be the rule. Get there early on Thursday so you can get settled in before the crowds cover the city. Get to the Academy early on Friday morning so that you don’t have to park 2 miles away. Get to the game with your cadet early on Saturday so that you don’t miss the kick-off due to traffic. Get to the Chapel on Sunday early so that you aren’t standing outside looking at the door because it is full. Get your cadet back to the Academy Monday evening a bit early so that they aren’t one of the cadets who has to bail out of the car stuck in traffic, and try to run back to the cadet area on time.
You get the idea. Just remember that there are 4400 cadets with family in town, and they all want to do the same things that you do. Plan to being early for everything, and you’ll be just fine.
