Flea Market

We’re planning to host a flea market similar to the one in Peoria.
No charge for a space other than what you may want to give to the club as a donation.
If you are planning on bringing some things to sell register for
table space by clicking on the button below

Location

When you arrive at the Hoogland, take
the elevator to the third floor.
Turn left when you get off and continue until you
reach the Club Room, where the registration
table will be set up.
We can’t wait to welcome
all our magical friends!

Just click the direction arrow on the title in the
map to get directions from your location.

The Hoogland Center has a parking ramp, but it’s now owned by Metropolis Corporation.
Parking rates are $2.49 for the first hour (including processing fees), with each
additional hour at $1.50, and a daily maximum of $10.99. You’ll need to preregister with
Metropolis, as the garage uses an electronic system that scans your license plate.
When you exit, your account is charged automatically, and a receipt
is sent via text message. This setup is similar to systems in many other cities.

Tip: The parking meters aren’t monitored on Saturdays, so you might want to look for a free spot on the street.
