-Parking-
National Grange Mutual/Main Street America Group has given us permission to use their overflow parking. The location is the south side of Gilbo Ave toward the School Street end. There will be sawhorses in place with signage that states the 40 spaces are reserved for you.
VERY IMPORTANT – the area provided is the only area your group can park. If anyone parks outside the designated area, they are subject to being towed. If you have over 40 vehicles, they are not authorized to use any other parking belonging to the Grange. Please, please reiterate this info to your group. I would hate for anyone to be towed and because the Grange is being so accommodating, I wouldn’t want to spoil it for future use!
