Wash U Parking Changes - Monday, August 29, 2016

Be careful where you park for our meetings or you WILL get a TICKET!  

Special permits are ALWAYS required to park in the RED ZONE.  Please do not park in a space with a RED sign.  There should be plenty of spaces with YELLOW signs; we are allowed to use these spaces during our meetings.

Save your money for rockhounding (field trips, shows, auctions, etc.); don't waste it on parking tickets!  Don't park in spaces with RED signs.
