US Team Trials - Caring for the Whitewater Park, Business Neighbors' Support

Whitewater Park Visitors, a note and request from the City of Glenwood Springs:
Parking is restricted in the area of the whitewater park. You will be ticketed for illegal parking, any overnite camping in the parking lot, and showing buff in the parking lot between cars - not an acceptable manner of changing clothes!

The Harley dealer nearby has a good relationship with us: Please practice good karma by parking and doing what is good for us all around their store. Score an extra huge karma point by stopping in and thanking them personally for their support!
