Clarification for Polar Bear football fans. The $10 parking fee is ONLY if you want to reserve one of the 100 parking spots closest to the school/stadium. Parking on campus is still free otherwise, you'll just have to walk farther. Once the campus is full, parking will begin at Blackshere and a shuttle bus will be utilized. You may also visit the North Marion HS Facebook page for more info.
