Original Post:
The Visitor Center Parking Lot (located on w 1st St) will be closed next week for repaving. It's expected that the parking will close during the evening on Monday the 14th, with paving operations to start Tuesday the 15th. We're expecting work to finish up late Wednesday/Thursday morning.
During this time, we're asking those that would normally park in this lot to utilize the Park n' Ride and the public parking behind the Presbyterian Church on W 3rd St., as well as the public parking along E 1st St.
