Parking Limited @ Naranja Park

8/10/2022Read full...

Parking is very limited for the entire 2022-2023 season at Naranja Park

The town of Oro Valley is busily constructing 4 new fields at Naranja Park north of our current fields.  We are very excited to double the size of Naranja Park and know the new layout will be very exciting for everyone involved.  Construction is scheduled to end around May of 2023.  Key Stewards of the park met in June of 2022 to discuss the severely limited parking at Naranja Park - the end result was there wasn't much we can do to solve the problem.  Some key takeaways are below:

• Please consider dropping off and picking up your athlete from practices this entire season in designated spots below
• OVLC is considering posting a team parent at drop off and pickup for our younger athletes to ensure they get to practice and safely return
• Give Coaches the parking spots in front!  Our volunteer coaches would be very happy to park in front/closest to the fields so that they can transport equipment to/from the practice fields and BE ON TIME to practice

​Let's all be courteous to every user of the park!  We have been allowed to park on the west dirt lot on the entrance road to the park (where there will be a memorial someday - see below).  This should be considered if you must park and there is no spots available.  Please - DO NOT park illegally; SLOW DOWN in the parking lots based on anticipated congestion.
