Heads-up

Co-Ed 7on7 Soccer registration deadline

Jun 24 - Team managers need to enroll by June 24 before league play starts June 30.

Changed

Wave Rider service is live with June free-ride promo

Jun 4 - Use the official Wave Rider page before planning a parking-heavy trip.

This can change downtown, beach, and K Line parking decisions during June.
