CAR LINE NOTES
Baseball & softball games will be starting this week. On home game days, cars from the visiting teams will be entering the St. Teresa parking lot from Bay Branch and will be parking in the St. Teresa Center lot. Games start at 4:15 pm, so cars will be arriving during dismissal time. If you use the rear lot for personal pick-up, please be extra cautious of traffic and courteous to our guests.
