Please note that spectator parking at Mount Vernon High School is extremely limited.
We are prioritizing parking for the visiting marching bands.
Handicap parking and a drop-off area are available by the stadium.
Overflow parking within half a mile of the stadium is available for spectators as shown on the map below.
There will be golf cart shuttles running to and from the stadium.
The City of Mount Vernon allows street parking on most public side streets.
There are sidewalks to the stadium from Palisades Road, 10th Street W, and 13th Ave SW.
Please follow all posted parking regulations.
We ask that you plan ahead knowing that you will likely need to walk a few blocks to reach the stadium.
