To access the Meadowview Conference Resort and Convention Center, Eastman Credit Union and other nearby offices during these times, motorists will have to use Exit 3 on Interstate 26. To access the Kingsport Aquatic Center and the YMCA, motorists will have to use Spring Meadow Court and Park Meadow Place (which runs behind the ECU Support Center).
Event parking will be at Marriot Meadowview Conference and Resort Center. The Meadowview entrance closest to Interstate 26 will be the only available entrance to Meadowview during this time. All event participants and guests must enter through this entrance.
