Yesterday I secured the Regions Bank lot across the street from Walgreens as they are not open on Saturdays. They only have about 25 spaces but there is a stop light for safe easy crossings so every bit helps. I also talked to the City about using our Trolley to ferry people back n forth from a City owned ball field about 3 blocks away. That's the closest "thing" that has available parking and the Trolley could make easy loops. I'll have to add more sign holders to direct people but this just might do the trick.
I also stopped by Walgreens to see how much business they lost Saturday only to be hugged by Sandy, their Manager who was a TREMENDIOUS help both before and during the screenings and she said they had a great day sales wise so that was a welcome relief. Also the City has not had any complaints yet from surrounding neighbors so everything has turned out great so far.
