[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McLean parent here and I wish graduation would be at EagleBank too! Or at least offer shuttles like Marshall.[/quote]

Marshall's shuttles to DAR (at least as of a few years ago, dont know about the past couple of years) were first come, first served and basically very limited space. But I'm not knocking that -- I thought it was good that the school did provide some limited transportation for those who weren't the grads themselves. But shuttles aren't a solution for most attending. Side note: We found the DAR graduation pretty easy but we did not have any elderly or disabled relatives attending and the timing (I think it was 11 a.m.) was good for getting in and out of the city that day. Tip for those who want to drive and not Uber: [b]Use Spot Hero or similar websites/apps but do it well in advance of graduation day[/b].[/quote]

Spot Hero took our reservation money but had given away the spots and would not let us enter. The attendant just said "We are full" and walked away. We had to rush to find alternative spots, literally ran back down the street and to DAR locked the doors. We had to wait until after the procession. When we contacted Spot Hero, they basically said "it happens."

For next year's parents: Budget AT LEAST two hours of driving/parking/logistics time. [/quote]

Why on earth would you drive and not take an Uber?  [/quote]

We have a family member who uses a wheelchair. Getting an accessibke uber is very difficult. [/quote]
