Those planning to attend the Aug. 17 Get Motivated event at the Spokane Arena can take advantage of available parking in the Arena parking lot, on the east side.

But that parking will be considered event-parking, according to the Spokane Public Facilities District.

The all-day event, featuring video feeds of people like retired General Colin Powell and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, starts around 9 a.m. and lasts through the afternoon.

Parking will be $5 for the day. If you typically use the east lot as a park-and-ride for the Spokane Transit  downtown shuttle, you'll also have to pay the $5 parking event fee that morning.

If you come in before 6 a.m., you'll pay that fee when you leave.
