Directions/
Parking: |
|
Parking can be challenging close to the event (basically, between Academy & Hoag and Jensen & 8th); Avoid "O" Street and "N" Street alltogether.
We are trying to develop "suggested" parking areas for your convenience (TBD). Plan to arrive early to find a spot & try to carpool. Various street parking around the Festival and Run. Ample parking at WAMS. Special $2 parking available near 7th & Academy (benefit Chamber of Commerce). Call the P & R Office or the Chamber for more detailed information. |

* Please remain in beautiful and historic downtown Sanger immediately following the race the awards ceremony (approximately 10am - much earlier than previous years due to the effieciency of "chip timing"). You will notice the the Blossom Trail Festival (from 9am - 4pm) hosted by the Chamber of Commerce as well. There will be a car show, live entertainment, lots of food, arts & craft vendors, etc. Support Sanger and Shop Local!
