Weigh-Ins / Check-Ins
All weigh-ins / check-ins, both Friday and Saturday morning are at the Raleigh Convention Center, in Room 205. Heavyweights don’t need to weigh-in, but they still need to check in. You’ll get your shirt and badge that will get you into the State Games.
Directions and Parking info can be found here. I typically try to park on W Cabarrus St or W Lenoir St. On street parking is metered during the day on Friday, but free after 5pm and on weekends.
The main entrance (on S Salisbury St) will be unlocked during weigh-in hours. From there, go down one level to find Room 205.
Please make sure your Strongman Corp membership is current before weigh-ins.
Consider taking a screenshot of the digital membership card so it’s quick to bring up if we need it.
Weigh-ins are not private – no nudity allowed.
