9. Helpful Hints Have your children walk to and from the Stake Center about a block east on 500 North. You can pick them up and drop them off in the parking lot and avoid the lines – plus they get a little exercise. Avoid the lines by dropping off 5 minutes earlier and picking up 5 minutes later. If you are unloading or loading bikes, please do so in the west parking lot. If you need to come into the school, please park in the west parking lot.
