PARKING NOTICE FOR BASEBALL/LACROSSE GAMES:
Our neighbors at Patterson Dental have graciously allowed STA fans to use the last row of their parking lot for all baseball/lacrosse games. Please respect the signs and the designated parking spaces set aside for STA parking - the spaces nearest to the entry gate, so there is no need to go any farther into the lot.
