Pre-Order Food Option
Boxed lunches can be preordered for $6.75 each. Please email your boxed lunch order by 5pm, Tuesday, November 12th, at 5pm to forensics@uww.edu. I’m sorry, but we cannot make additions or subtractions after this date/time. A boxed lunch includes a sandwich, chips, fruit, cookie, and soda. Please pick either Turkey, Roast Beef, or Veggie. No orders can be accepted after the deadline and there will not be extra lunches available for purchase at the tournament. Payment is due at registration on tournament day and can be paid in combination with, or seperate from, your registration fees. An invoice and receipt will be supplied with your tournament packet.
 
On-Campus Food Options
There is one small restaurant open at the nearby University Center. However, the weekend staffing is very slim so we expect a lot of delays if dozens of students go there at once. The on-campus restaurant is the lower level of the Univeristy Center (next to Hyland Hall) and serves burgers, pizza, etc.
 
Off-Campus Food Options
There are no other restaurants within a brief walking distance, however, several fast food options are within a short driving distance of about one mile (McDonalds, Qdoba, Pizza Hut, Rocky's, Culvers, Taco Bell, and Subway). A map of nearby restaurants will be included in your welcome material upon arrival. Subway and Jimmy Johns will also deliver to campus.
 
Hotel Options
There are two hotels in Whitewater. Hotel managers have encouraged teams to call and inquire about discounts for larger reservations. Discounts are available based on availability. The two Whitewater hotels are:
Super 8 (newly renovated): 917 E. Milwaukee St., 262-472-0400
Baymont Inn: 1355 W. Main St., 262-472-9400
There are several additional options nearby in Janesville and Fort Atkinson.
