Unfortunately, we are once again having serious issues with traffic and parking at our Cheat Lake Fields. This is very disappointing, as the only traffic we get there is from our members, and the only drivers we see are parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, brothers sisters, etc.... of our players!

  

We need YOUR help with this issue, or we are going to be forced to take actions that no one will be happy with  :(

  

In the last 2 weeks, we have had reports of vehicles speeding up and down the hill and parking illegally along the road, or creating spaces at the edges of the parking lot.There is simply no excuse for this behavior, and if it continues, it's going to get someone hurt unnecessarily.

  

As a final reminder, the following information is in effect immediately. Enforcement will be during weekday practices and for weekend games -

• If you are not a coach with equipment to carry, or if you do not have very young children with you, or if you are not handicapped, you should NOT even be driving down to the lower parking lot. Park at the top, and walk down - it's not that far, and it only takes a couple of minutes.
• If you see ANYONE walking on the road, SLOW DOWN!!!! The maximum speed in this area is 5 mph or slower!
• Park ONLY in designated spots - NO exceptions!! Do not try to get 'creative', as this only creates problems, and may result in your vehicle being towed at your expense and inconvenience.

  This should not be a difficult issue to resolve, but if it continues, some of the options under consideration include:

• Towing at owners expense, plus a fine to be paid to the club
• Additional fees for Rec Soccer, to allow for parking attendants to be hired
• Blocking off the lower parking lot entirely and making EVERYONE walk up and down

This is a very serious issue, with a very easy resolution - common sense and consideration for others. Let's all do our part, and keep OUR children safe!

 

Going forward, there WILL be reserved parking spaces at the bottom of the hill for volunteers working in the Concession Stands. To volunteer, please send an email to info@muscwv.com
