IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT PARKING
A large construction project will be starting the day after the conference cross country meet. There will be heavy equipment on and near Bassett Creek Park. This will limit some of the street parking that is available. It is very important that vehicles do not block any driveways and do not park in the cul-de-sacs (including Welcome cul-de-sac). We have been warned that vehicles improperly parked will be ticketed and/or towed. Buses should drop off at Bassett Creek and park five blocks west at Lions Valley Place Park (6822 32nd Ave N). This is also a good parking location for spectators who are unable to find legal street parking. Our Spectrum team bus will serve as a shuttle between the Lions Valley Place Park parking lot and Bassett Creek Park.
