PARKING INFO:
Just in case here's some more detailed directions:
- The corner of Elysian Park and Stadium Way
- Then you follow the path/driveaway
- Eventually you'll come across a parking lot. Pull into the first parking lot on the left
- The parking lot is across from this gated lodge (which is the address above)
- When you pull into the parking lot and park, walk past the lil roundabout straight into the park.
There's some bushes and stuff on the right. Walk pass the bushes on the right, and you'll see us under a canopy of trees =)
p.s. If parking is full, you can park on the street along the park
