Quick Tips for a Frightfully Good Time

  • Arrive early. Parking can fill up fast on busy nights, especially Halloween weekend.
  • Remember where you parked. Snap a photo of your spot so you're not wandering the lot like a lost ghost.
  • Plan your ride back. Check when the shuttle stops running on the day of your visit. Don't get stranded after the witching hour.
  • Costumes welcome. Be mindful of other riders who are sharing your space. We're all here for a good time!

Now, you're ready to haunt the town! 🎃
