PARKING

Please do NOT park in Cows Corner. There is ample parking in Doorly, De Stades and Seaview Roads.

Under the "Jesus Loves You" sign, please park carefully and in neat rows, as we have been given permission to utilize this private land.

We are looking to maintain parking for the local businesses clear for their use... we are fit and healthy, after all, and enjoy an Easter Saturday stroll (after a Boerie roll).
