SuperCDMS Collaboration Meeting 2020

The SuperCDMS SNOLAB is an international collaboration. Important work is progressing at all partner U.S. national labs and at a number of U.S. universities. The project also benefits from international partnerships with institutions in Canada, France, the UK and India.


Travel Information

Easterwood Airport (CLL) is located only 2 miles from campus and offers daily flights from/to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH).

You may also wish to consider flying into Houston-area airports (George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH); William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) or Austin airport (AUS) and complete the rest of the journey (100 miles) by rental car or airport shuttle. You can arrange shuttle service to and from Houston and Austin airports with GroundShuttle.

Hotel

We have arranged limited room blocks with two hotels in town, it is less than a 15-minute walk from both hotels to the Mitchell Institute. Both hotels also offer complimentary shuttle service from CLL airport (this will need to be arranged in advanced by calling their front desk and letting them know your time of arrival).

Guests will make reservations on an individual basis and may call or make reservations online using the group codes to get the special rate associated with the workshop. Reservations not made by the hotel cut-off date will pay the regular hotel rates.

Please note: The Hampton Inn is the only hotel with the room block including the night of the 8th if you are coming for the earlier analysis workshop on the 9th
