<p>My daughter and I plan on being there. Hoping it doesn't start at the crack of dawn as she has a school dance the night before...</p>

<p>Waiting to hear if D is accepted first before we decide.</p>

<p>My family and I plan on going. Even though we live only 80 minutes away, we might stay at a hotel the night before and get a feel for the night life. Although I here there isn’t much to do off campus, but it’s a small town after all.</p>

<p>dancingphlanges, I think ‘not much to do’ depends on what you want to do. There isn’t a huge mall (although there is an outlet mall that the college runs a shuttle to), but it IS a tourist town, so there are a lot of restaurants and small shops and such. Interesting town just to walk around. And there is a theater, and then all the stuff that happens ON campus. I think it’s a pretty busy community.</p>

<p>I am heading down the 16th. We are from Long Island…I hope they get to meet alot of kids who have decided on Gettysburg.</p>

<p>[Get</a> Acquainted Day](<a href=“http://www.gettysburg.edu/accepted/get_acquainted_day/GAD-2010-Schedule.jpg]Get”>http://www.gettysburg.edu/accepted/get_acquainted_day/GAD-2010-Schedule.jpg) starts at 9:00 AM registration (Convocation is at 10:00 AM) but earlier arrival gets better parking! I believe over 500 families are expected. There will be lots of folks to guide you around campus. </p>

<p>There’s an accepted student reception at the Attic (student night club) – drinks and snacks – at 3:30 PM and a separate program for parents where the staff and several members of the Parents Advisory Board will be present at the same time.</p>

<p>If you have an iPhone download the Gettysburg College “app.” Phone, and web links as well as a real-time campus map.</p>

<p>It’s an exciting day!</p>
