If you don't know already, the football field is in the community park and NOT at the high school. This will be NOTHING like Medina where there were parking lots for home and visiting teams with room the tailgate, etc. This is very similar to Louisville, if you've ever been there, where everyone is on their own to find parking as near to the stadium as possible. There are 3 small parking lots for the park (on East and West sides of a small pond, and West of the baseball field on top of the hill). Otherwise, most will have to parallel park in the community somewhere and walk. Here are some simple directions that should help:
Route 77 from the North:
1. Get off at the New Philadelphia Exit 81
2. Turn left off the exit onto OH-39
3. Proceed to the square (approx. 1.9 miles)
4. Turn left on North Broadway
5. Proceed through town (approx. .8 miles), past the tennis courts
6. Quaker Stadium is at the bottom of the hill (on the left)
I normally park at the South end of the park near the pond (near Park Place Teen Center, 161 Tuscora Avenue Northwest, New Philadelphia, OH). It's a small lot and a little walk through the park, but it's not bad and is nice scenery. This will bring you up behind the home stands. Another (larger) parking lot is on top of the hill just West of the baseball field, on top of the hill.
