Are we allowed to bring our pets?

NO!

Are we allowed to walk around property or play on the obstacle courses?
No! Please remain in the immediate area surrounding the sports fields.  Genesee Valley is private property and due to liability insurance you are not allowed anywhere on property besides the sports fields; that includes the woods, trails, and Challenge Course.

My GPS took me to 1717 Rayville Rd. but I’m not sure where the fields are located?

I need to drop off a cooler and tent can I just stop on Rayville Rd. to do that?
You cannot park or stop along Rayville Road; this only causes traffic jams.  Please park your vehicle in the designated areas and unload your things.

I see fields on both sides of the street, how do I get to the other fields?
After parking your vehicle, use the cross walks to cross the street.   Please do not climb over the fence; this will cause them to break and could result in injury.

Is smoking permitted onsite?
If you must smoke, please do so in the parking area and dispose of your trash properly.

We would like to tailgate after the games.  Is alcohol permitted on the property?
Alcohol is not permitted on Genesee Valley property.
