Construction and Parking Maps

After monitoring our parking lots over the past few weeks, we have decided to make a few changes and add additional parking signs to help manage parking during construction.

Beginning Monday, October 19, the spaces that are currently open in the upper parking lot will be reserved for construction traffic Monday through Friday. The lot will reopen for general parking each Friday at 5:00 p.m. and remain open through Sunday at 5:00 p.m. We will also be adding new signs along the parking spaces in the middle lot, opposite the Staff Parking area. These signs will read: “Parking for Rumple Members Only, Monday–Friday”

Blowing Rock has been blessed with an abundance of visitors this year, but the increased tourism, combined with the loss of parking spaces due to construction, has made it challenging for our members, staff, and guests attending committee meetings and church events to find parking.

If you need to drop something off at the Rumple House or need to get into the Education Building, please call the church office. We can meet you at Main Street or walk over to the Education Building and let you in. Please don’t hesitate to call—we are happy to help!

Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we continue this exciting work. We know there are a few inconveniences along the way, but it is wonderful to see the progress happening all around our campus!
