There's plenty of free parking.  Do you already drive an alternative fuel vehicle?  Bring it with you and enjoy preferred parking right next to the action.  

There will be a poster competition open to all elementary and middle schoolers.  Topic: "My Future Transportation."  Prizes!!  Details here.

While you're there, take the opportunity to have your car checked for safety and efficiency.  In coordination with the Independent Garage Owners of North Carolina, students from the Dudley High School Advanced Alternative Vehicle Technology Program will check your car over.  Check Engine light on?  We'll put it on the computer and tell you why.  It only takes two minutes.  No reservation necessary.  Just pull into the parking lot at the corner of W. Lindsay and Battleground from the Lindsay Street entrance between 10:00 and 1:00.
