unable to attend because of conflict then arrangements must be made with Mr.
Blomgren.
All Seniors must bring caps and gowns to rehearsal for

Graduation Set Up – HELP PLEASE!
We need help setting up
chairs for Graduation at Shadowland Pavilion.
We have 2600 chairs to set up and the more volunteers and helpers we get
the easier this task will be.
We are planning to start set
up at 8:30am Sunday morning. As you come
down to the pavilion to help with set up just let the parking attendant know
you are there to help with Graduation set up and they will let you into the
lot.
We will have donuts, coffee,
and juice for the volunteers. If we get
a good turn out of helpers we should be done in about an hour.
Thanks
Mr. Blomgren
Graduation Parking:
Parking at Silver Beach is
free to graduation attendees. The park
staff will run a tally of vehicles entering the park and St. Joseph Public
Schools will pay the parking fees. Parking
passes will be available in the high school office. You will need to place the pass on your front
dashboard so it is easy for park staff to see.
This pass does not guarantee a
parking space, but will help assist with tallying the number of cars.
Parking is on a first-come, first-serve basis.
It is anticipated the parking lots at Silver Beach will fill for the
ceremony. It is recommended you arrive
prior to 5:00 p.m. to acquire a parking spot.
An annual park permit does not guarantee a parking spot. Public parking is available at numerous
parking lots in the city and on nearby streets.
You are welcome to drop off your guests near the park Gatehouse and
immediately exit to find nearby parking.
All park exits will be open to facilitate an organized exit of the
event. We recommend you plan well in
advance to find parking and get to the pavilion. It will be difficult to exit following the
ceremony at the pavilion, thus parking up top at the bluff and walking down to
the pavilion may be a very good option.
Based off of our experience last year, it took quite a
bit of time to exit the lots close to the pavilion, thus we recommend if you
can park up on the bluff and walk down to Graduation it will be much easier at
the conclusion of the ceremony for you to leave.
Graduation and Seating for Handicapped:
Parking spaces for
handicapped individuals will be available for attendees with a handicap-parking
permit. A designated seating area for
handicapped will be provided. Please
contact the high school office if you will need a handicap parking space to
receive additional information on parking location.
