A Better Way Friday's Main St Parking Procedure |
^ top |
| Due to the growing popularity of our Downtown venue on Friday and the increasing congestion and
confusion that has been caused over the last few years due to construction in the Downtown area, we have changed
our procedures and approach to loading the cars onto Main Street on Friday morning. These are the new procedures in effect for the 2008 show. A staging area will be established to marshal ALL of the vehicles prior to moving to the Downtown parking areas. All vehicles must have their registration window stickers affixed to the windshield and participants must be wearing their armbands on their arm in order to be eligible to park on Main Street and/or enter the staging area. NO VEHICLES WILL BE ALLOWED DOWNTOWN WITHOUT FIRST BEING PROCESSED THROUGH THE STAGING AREA The location of the staging area and the time that it will open will be provided at the Registration Office at Centennial Park. Do not go to the staging area prior to the opening time. Any vehicles parked or left in the staging area prior to the official opening time will NOT BE ALLOWED to park Downtown. Vehicles will be assembled in the staging area on a first come, first served, basis. The vehicle and the DRIVER must stay in the staging area to maintain their place in line. A sticker will be affixed to your vehicle's windshield for identification purposes. Vehicles will be dispersed to, and enter, the Main Street parking area directly from the staging area. We will be moving the cars onto Main Street in batches, as we can handle them, thus eliminating the traffic congestion and overheating problems we have faced over the last few years. With everyone's help and understanding we are sure that this will be a much more relaxed and improved method. We hope that you enjoy this year's Atlantic Nationals show, Atlantic Nationals Organizing Committee |
