Parking / Security Protocols:
United States Naval Academy
Community volunteers are asked to walk onto the Naval Academy Campus, using Gate 1 near the corner of Randall St and King George St. (Any person entering the campus is required to show personal identification and is subject to the Naval Academy Security Procedures). For Google Maps purposes, you can enter “19 Randall St”
I would advise parking at the Calvert Street, which is free on weekends. It is then a 15 minute walk to Gate 1.
