3) Early Arrival is Essential
     Guests attending our graduation ceremony will be arriving at the same time attendees 
     traveling to Mercedes Benz Stadium for the game will arrive.  This game averages 35,000       
     people.   This will cause traffic delays.  GWCC is assisting with a  waiting room for 
     parents/family that arrive early.  Snacks and beverages will be available for purchase in the 
     area.  

4) School Staff Supporting the Graduation Ceremony
     Please encourage staff assisting with the graduation ceremony to ride the bus (equipped with 
     air conditioning) to the venue.  Visit the group email to update the number of participants 
     riding to GWCC and returning to the school to ensure an adequate number of buses is 
     available.  This document is located under the "Files" tab.  We will ask the bus drivers to remain 
     at the site when students/staff are dropped off to avoid traffic delays returning to the venue.

It is strongly suggested by GWCC that  guests schedule an early arrival and travel by MARTA  to/from the venue.
