EMPLOYEE (FORMERLY TENANT) SPACE AT TURNVEREIN:
There is a reserved parking space at the back of the Turnverein (by the alley) which was for use of the tenant. It is clearly marked with a large sign and cones in the space. Although the tenant has moved out, we are saving that space for Turnverein employee use. Please respect our need for reserving that space for employees!
ADDITIONAL PARKING AT FILLMORE ON NON-CONCERT NIGHTS
On nights when there is not a concert at the Fillmore Auditorium,the Fillmore has agreed to let people attending Turnverein events park in the Fillmore parking lot, adjacent to the south side of the Turnverein parking lot. (In return, the Turnverein allows them to rent a few spaces in the Turnverein lot on concert nights.)
ADDITIONAL PARKING AT BANK OF DENVER
The Turnverein has arranged with the Bank of Denver to provide additional spaces for parking near the Turnverein. These spaces are available any night; not just concert nights. The bank has agreed to let us use 22 spaces and may add more spaces later. You must follow the directions on the back of the permits or risk being TOWED!
The manager, Paul "Max" Maxey, will provide a supply of dated permits which will be in the foyer or in the flyer holder outside the building on the left side of the bottom of the stairs.
There are specific instructions members and others attending the Turnverein need to follow in order to use these spaces.
1. Stop by the Turnverein first and park in front of the stairs, as close as possible to the stairs, in order to avoid impeding traffic.
2. Pick up a temporary parking permit from the door table or the flyer holder on the bottom of the left side of the stairs outside the front of the building. (Make sure it is dated correctly if you get one from the outside flyer holder!)
Instructions are on the back of each permit or handed out with each permit. The parking permits will be dated as needed, with a large marker, with the month, date, and year, for example, 08/01/11.
3. Drive to the entrance of the bank parking lot on Clarkson just past (north of) 16th Ave., on the right (east side).
4. Drive straight to the back of the parking lot and park next to the alley only, facing out. Back into the spaces, so the tow truck drivers driving through the lot can easily see the parking permits).
5. Place the parking permit on the dashboard of the vehicle.
Any vehicles parked in the wrong spaces, parked facing front end toward to the alley, or without a permit valid for that date will be TOWED.
The spaces may be used between 6:00 PM and 6:00 AM. Vehicles should not be left overnight past 6:00 AM.
ADDITIONAL PARKING ON FILLMORE CONCERT NIGHTS:
On nights when there is a concert at the Fillmore Auditorium (Colfax and Clarkson), the Turnverein has also arranged for additional parking in several small parking lots within a few blocks of the Turnverein. If the parking lot is full when you arrive at the Turnverein, go ahead and pull into the parking lot, and speak to one of the parking attendants. They will be able to provide you with a permit and directions to park nearby unless all the permits have been given out, which is rare.
Even if you already know of the additional lots, you must get a permit first each time, or your vehicle may be towed! Also, if you park in one of the additional lots without a permit, or using an older permit, the Turnverein parking attendants do not have an accurate count of how many spaces are left in the nearby lots. You must park in the same lot the permit is for. Note: we no longer have use of the spaces across 16th from the alley behind the Turnverein.
PARKING PRECAUTIONS
If you are at all uncomfortable walking back to your car alone, please ask another dancer to escort you to your vehicle, or walk with someone else leaving at the same time. Please do not leave any valuables in plain sight in your vehicle and always lock your vehicle.
