Due to the increase in participation at our “Party at the Point Celebration”, and to help keep residents safe while entering and exiting the park, new road closures will be posted. This is necessary to help with traffic flow and to keep the main roads open for emergency personnel. Please be sure to view the map on our web page and follow all posted NO PARKING SIGNS.
Parking is available at the Loy Blake Park in the East parking lot and in the parking lots behind West Point Elementary. There is also overflow parking available at the LDS Church off of 300 N and along 800 N. Thank you for your help this year to keep everyone safe at West Point’s “Party at the Point Celebration”!
