SPECIAL PARKING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE 40th ANNIVERSARY EVENT ON SEPT
19 FROM NOON-4:00: Southwest Auto Body, at the corner of 42nd and Bvtn-Hillsdale
Hwy is allowing our guests to park in their lot. Thank you!
Limited parking is available immediately in front of the building – and
don’t hesitate to double-park (as in the photo above). It’s
the only way we can fit all the visitor and workers' cars in our lot. You
can also park up the hill a ways; just don’t park across the street directly
behind our parking lot because it would be very easy for someone backing
out to hit a car parked on that side of the street
