On Saturday, Champlain College’s Office of Undergraduate Admissions is hosting an Open House for prospective students. We anticipate a large group of students and family members on campus. To reduce car volume in our neighborhood, event guests will park in our Lakeside Avenue parking area and will board large buses to get to our main campus. Buses will come up Maple Street, drop students off in front of Hill/Lyman Halls on South Willard Street and then go back to Lakeside via South Willard Street. We will not have any buses on Upper Maple, Summit or South Prospect Streets.
We have “no parking” signage on South Willard Street so that the buses have a location for pickup/drop off. Towing will be enforced by the City. If a vehicle is parked inappropriately, blocks a driveway, or creates issues, please call 802-555-1212 and someone will promptly address your concern. Or, if you have any questions, please contact me – Sandy Yusen, syusen@champlain.edu or community@champlain.edu, 802-865-5727. We thank you in advance for your understanding!
