Those participants and race teams with tents, race equipment, etc, may set up inside the park just past the main gate on the grassy area to the left. The main gate is locked but your equipment can be dropped off at the gate and walked in (it's a very short walk, trust me!)

Parking:

There is limited parking spaces at Trenton Park and taking your vehicle inside the park itself is not permitted. You may park down the road (200m) at Trenton Rink. There is lots of space there. Please do not park on the road as it's a busy road and your safety is paramount here!
