MURFREESBORO, N.C. - With Chowan University's Homecoming week festivities nearing, the athletic department is making fans aware of the precautions being taken because of COVID19 restrictions and potential community spread. Because of the condensed nature of the Camp Hall Parking Lot and the Grassy Knoll area of Garrison Stadium, all tailgating groups with more than 10 people will be moved to a reserved section of the Hawks Athletic Center for 10/16/2021.
Please look for your own tailgating space in the HAC, as they will be marked with a sign and your club/group/organization. Reserved tailgating spots may be set up at as early as 9am. The space at the HAC allows cars and guests to spread out, while also enjoying the location. As you know, Garrison Stadium is just a short walk over Lake Vann Bridge to the ticket booth and main entry gate for the football stadium. Athletics only provides the space. We do not provide tables, chairs, or tents. Please remember to be mindful of the shared space.
As usual the following tailgating rules apply:
- Charcoal and gas grills are permitted but charcoal cannot be dumped anywhere on campus following its use.
- Chowan University is a dry campus.
- Be courteous of other tailgating groups in the area.
- Entering any building on campus, a face mask must be worn.
- Only the bathrooms in the front lobby of the Hawks Athletic Center may be used during tailgating.
- Be mindful of other games and activities that are going on at the same time (volleyball home match, baseball and softball home alumni games). Parents, alumni, and fans will also be parking in the same lots around the building for these events.
If you have specific questions, please feel free to email
