(As a reminder, only Middle and Upper School students perform dances at Gym Drill. Fifth graders participate in the passing of class banners toward the end of the event). Check the Bazaar page to purchase wristbands, buy tickets for our 50/50 raffle, and learn more about the food truck offerings. And, please see the parking information below!

PARKING
This will be an extremely crowded day at Bryn Mawr with hundreds of guests, plus Bazaar rides, games and vendors set up around campus. 
  • On-campus parking lots are reserved for vendors and guests needing accessible parking. Please plan to park in the surrounding neighborhood or at St. Mary's Seminary, 5400 Roland Avenue. 
  • We will have minibus shuttles between St. Mary's Seminary and Bryn Mawr from noon to 2 p.m and 3:00 to 7:30 p.m.
  • It’s also an easy walk! See the shuttle map here.
  • Carpooling and ridesharing are encouraged! 
  • Please be respectful of our neighbors’ driveways and street signage. 
Afternoon Carpool
We hope you will join us on campus on Friday afternoon, but for those families who need to pick up their students at regular dismissal time, the afternoon carpools will run as scheduled for each division. 
  • Little School will be dismissed at 11:30 a.m.
  • Middle and Upper School students can be picked up at 3:30 in Northern Parkway Circle.
  • Lower School carpool will be at 3:30 in the Lower School Drive. (Lower School parents may want to consider parking first, then picking up their daughters in person and staying for Bazaar.)
  • There will be NO Extended Day or Afternoon Supervision in Lower or Middle Schools that day.
