Visitor & Driver Tips

When parking at the Admin Parking Lot, observe posted on-site signage regarding reserved permit stalls, staff-only spaces, and maximum parking durations to avoid citations or vehicle relocation. During the winter months, remain cautious of early-morning frost and ongoing snow clearing along stall lines. If you plan to attend large-scale regional events at SCERA Park or University Place, arrive early to secure space and enjoy a quick, traffic-free departure back onto 300 S or State Street.
