Big Golf Tournament and Library Parking
The PGA Golf Tour will be held at Harding Park (across the street from Library Annex I) on October 6-11, 2009. San Francisco State University will provide some reserved parking spaces for the attendees in Lots 20 and 25. In an effort to maintain parking spaces for the campus community during this large and very popular event, SF State identification will be checked at the entrances to the parking areas. Your cooperation in having your SF State identification readily available will facilitate entrance into the parking areas. Thank you for your attention to this message.
For details, call Parking and Transportation at ext. 8-1441.
