    City Meet Parking

    From the City team: The parking situation is somewhat difficult.

    The Washington pool parking lot fills up early before a swim meet. Families can park at the bottom of the hill at the intersection of Preston and Madison Ave., or families can park in the parking lot behind Burley Middle School at Henry Avenue and Rose Hill Drive. Street parking is limited and please be mindful of parking signs and driveways. The police will be enforcing parking laws as necessary and will offer assistance.

    Parking is STRICTLY PROHIBITED on Henry Ave and Charlton Ave., and local neighbors will tow cars that are blocking their driveways.

    Seating & Bags

    Beginning at 4:30 PM, families and swimmers may enter the left gate (closest to the main parking lot). The space around the shallow end of the pool (to your right as you enter the main entrance) is reserved for Hollymead. There are two permanent shade features and a third shade tent set up in that area. Families are welcome to bring additional shade tents and chairs, but tents must be set up outside the fence as the deck has been too crowded with tents during past meets.

    Glass is not permitted in the pool area or on deck; bags will be checked by staff entering at the gate before entering the pool deck. Note there is no wading or walking in the zero depth section of the pool during the meet as there will not be lifeguards for that section. Please be mindful when setting up chairs and blankets to keep a clear walkway open at all times.

    Food

    The Washington Park concession stand only serves snacks and drinks. Families can bring food or order it to be delivered to Washington Park Pool. There are additional food options that are walkable along Preston Avenue (The Dairy Market is a food court with many food options - directly across Preston Ave: https://dairymarketcville.com/). One block east on Preston Ave., you will find Sticks Kebob Shop and Cafe 88 Taiwanese Cafe.
