Peekskill, New York (Downstate Athletic Center)

This is a brand new facility down on the Hudson River near Peekskill, New York. It is home of the Downstate Volleyball Club.

Queens College - Queens, New York

Queens College is in the heart of Queens, New York. The drive is fairly quick in NO traffic, and much more time consuming IN traffic.

The campus is near a fairly busy commercial area, so there are delis and convenience stores.

The gymnasium itself, however, has very limited food and other services.

There is a large parking garage right next to the gym.

This is the home of the Creole Big Apple Volleyball Club.

Stony Brook University (Long Island)

First of all, Stony Brook, New York, is a bit of a drive once you get on Long Island - so don't underestimate the drive.

Second, this is a state university campus - it's BIG. The complex that we've used does have good parking. Food is available around campus and outside of campus parameter.

PowerZone - Denville, New Jersey

The PowerZone is off Interstate 80, west of I-287 by about 5 miles. Once you exit I-80, you are about a mile away.

This is the home of the Allegro Volleyball Club.

The site itself is a large, dedicated Volleyball facility, with a very good volleyball store that sells equipment, clothes and other related items, as well as some food items (e.g., sandwiches) - this is not a hot grill, however. Just down from the facility there is a new strip mall with several restaurants, including chinese and italian, and a CVS. Another larger strip mall is halfway back to I-80 and hosts several good delis, a bank, etc.
