Just a few weeks ago I felt iffy about simply driving down to Johnny's IceHouse to see our prospect training camp, but now this comes to mind.


I'm considering driving there, maybe even stay at a hotel from 9/21-22 for both days. I've never traveled out of state alone and have no familiarity of the area at all.

Why not just go to Training Camp Fest on the 22nd if you're freaked out about Johnny's?

Kathryn, the University of Notre Dame campus is beautiful, especially in the fall when the leaves are turning. Touring the campus is a lot of fun (the Basilica is a must see).That weekend there is no football game, so there will not be a fight for hotel rooms. However, stay at a well known chain (Hilton, Marriott, etc.), as there are a lot of little dive hotel/motels that may have a cheap price but you get what you pay for. Also, the area of South Bend (including Roseland) is not the best, so be careful. If you can find somewhere downtown or out in Mishawauka (about 10 minutes from campus) you should be fine.
