TRAFFIC / PARKING: We anticipate heavy traffic due to large events happening in both Halteman and in Farmington on 6/13. We suggest parking in the Remedy City or Mitchell Early Childhood Center lots (both on Purdue and a short walk to Halteman Park) or along the side streets leading up to the park. Please observe a maximum 25mph speed limit and observe all city parking regulations. Lastly, we ask that all guests be respectful of our neighbors…please do not park in the grass, in residents' driveways, and do not block hydrants or mailboxes. Thank you!
