ALERT - PARKING CHALLENGES

ALERT!!

WOULD YOU BELIEVE!!!!

We were just notified (3/13) that repaving of Driftwood Ave is going to start Thursday, 3/16!!!!

We are hoping there will be minimal impact, but be prepared to find alternate routes to enter our parking lot.  Schnebly Center has gratiously agreed to lend us their parking spaces for the tournament. If all spaces are taken, Bel Aire Drive (Northwest of the club) should have parking available.  Parking on the grass next to the basketball court and on the Driftwood side of the club is permitted.  

Link to local map.   600 driftwood ave daytona beach power - Search (bing.com)  It's always something!!!  So, let's go with the flow!  Enjoy and have a great tournament!
