Everything you need to know for the Kentucky Elementary Convention!
BUS PARKING INFORMATION
Central Bank Center is providing schools, that will have buses remaining on property for the convention, the opportunity to purchase parking passes in advance. Provided below are links for a Multi-Day Pass for those that will be staying throughout the entirety of a convention as well as a Single Day Pass for those only coming for one or two days. Please note that bus drivers do have the option to pay to park at the gate.
Item of note from Parking Team at CBC: This is an instant cart, so it automatically adds each option and you have to delete it to keep what you want. If you open the link multiple times, then it re-adds all the options to the cart. Therefore, do not go in and out without buying.
Directions for unloading and parking for buses:
- Once a bus has unloaded their students, they will need to enter in to the High Street Parking Lot through Gate 1, which is the entry right across from the Arena and the first gate that you come to on High Street.
- Once a bus checks in, they will receive a dash pass for the days that they pre-order. This dash pass will give them the privilege to come and go as they need throughout the day.
The facility will accept CASH and Card.
No outside food & beverage allowed.
Schools will be unloading and loading on Main Street and High Street entrances.
