Safety Notice
In the past year we have observed people speeding as they enter and exit the property. PLEASE DRIVE SLOWLY ON THE ENTRANCE AND EXIT DRIVEWAYS AND IN THE PARKING LOT. Be especially careful as you approach the intersection in front of the building where you would make a right turn towards the parking lot. This is a narrow roadway and vehicles may be exiting. WE RECOMMEND COMING TO A FULL STOP! Be aware also that children may be present in the area.
Careful driving prevents accidents from happening
