Parking

Westlake High School has ample parking available for this event.  The best parking would be on the lot that is on the corner of Camp Craft Rd. & Westbank Drive. However, there is parking around the back if you travel down Camp Craft by the football stadium and overflow parking off of Westbank closer to Hwy 360 if we should fill up.  Please know, there will also be spots blocked off close to the high school for food trailer service.
