Visitor & Driver Tips
The lot can fill up quickly during peak dance evenings, especially right before beginner lesson start times. Arriving 15 to 20 minutes prior to event programming ensures a seamless parking experience close to the hall doors. If the church lot reaches full capacity during special high-volume events, ample overflow parking is readily available at the nearby Haddonfield PATCO commuter lots and municipal metered lots along Kings Court and Tanner Street, which are often free or minimally priced during evening hours and on Sundays. Always be mindful of local residential parking signs when parking along surrounding borough streets.
