This is a safety concern for Timber Trail. Emergency personnel must be able to enter and exit the parking lot. PLEASE do not enter the parking lot if there is not room for a car to pass on the left side. Do not block the entrance. The waiting line of cars should stay as far to the right side as possible in the parking lot to allow emergency responders to pass in case of an emergency and to allow others to enter and exit parking spaces. We are teaching "The Six Pillars of Character" to your children. Please lead by example.
