COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Parking's not a problem at the U.S. Women's Open if you know where to go. There's a bike valet for all two wheel enthusiasts, which means you park for free and get an attendant to make sure it doesn't get stolen.

But if it's too hot to go without the air conditioning, how does $20 sound for a spot right across the street from all the action? A teen duo has been using their family's front yard as a parking lot since Monday.

"I've worked the whole summer, I've been doing landscaping and mowing lawns. But that's not anywhere near the cash I've been making here, " Dillon Reed, who is working his front yard as a parking lot, said.

One of the best parking spots is a donation lot at the St. Paul Parish, Pauline Memorial School.

The parking lot has turned into a fundraiser, and the suggested $25 donation comes with all day parking.

"You get a little ticket and they can leave and come back once they've paid, they're free to use the lot all day," Peter Morgan with St. Paul Parish said.
