Parking Lot News to Note
2. Please watch the crossing guard for the signal to exit the lot. People who use Illinois to cut through going east are getting stuck in our car line and pulling into oncoming traffic to go around the line. We have had a few close calls and I want to be sure we stay as safe as we possibly can.
