TO: WRBC MEMBERS
Please be advised that I misunderstood Adi Cruz, City of Whiting, when she said that there would be a $10 Fee to enter the park to watch the fireworks show. This is actually a $10 Fee to park your vehicles at the Mascot Hall of Fame Parking Lot, located on 1851 Front Street in Whiting. It will cost you $10 to park there if you decide to. That is the only area with a fee to park.
PARKING WILL NOT BE ALLOWED AT THE 117TH STREET WHITING PARK ENTRANCE. CITY PARKING WILL ONLY BE AT THE MASCOT HALL OF FAME PARKING LOT ON FRONT STREET. THE WHITING HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL FIELD PARKING LOT ON 117TH STREET WILL BE LOCKED AND SO WILL THE GATES.
You still are allowed to walk in, ride your bikes, etc. to enter the park to watch the event at either entrance of the park.
No vehicles will be allowed into the Park after 6PM.
I apologize for the confusion.
I wish you all a safe and Happy 4th of July!!
