Ron,

There is pay parking ($1/hr, I think) available in the structure next  
to the building, but there is a lot of free parking in the medical  
campus parking structures that are 1-3 blocks north of Palmer  
Commons.  If you go to http://greatlakesrubybash.org/venue.html and  
click on "Event Map" under Directions you will see some of these  
parking locations labelled on the map.  Any of these "Blue" structures  
on the medical campus are labelled with their enforcement hours, which  
are generally 6am - 6pm Monday through Friday.  This means that anyone  
can park in them for free on Saturday.  We will update the website  
with specific directions on how to find the structures and how to get  
to the venue from there sometime in the next few days.

- Brandon
