Seniors can get a parking sticker from the Bangs Center for parking in the Bangs lot. The stickers cost $25. There is a table at the front door of the center with a clipboard. Fill out the form, attach your car registration and check and leave it on the table. Jennifer Reynolds will come back in five minutes with your sticker.
I have mine and look forward to free parking when I (and we all) can return to the center for cribbage, exercise classes and other programs.
