GEICO parking lot:

 

The entrance to the Geico parking lot is on Western.  Coming south on 355/Wisconsin Avenue, turn RIGHT onto Western.  I had trouble seeing a street sign on the near corner, but other landmarks are the Metro sign on the near corner and Neiman's just across Western.  (It's the first right after Willard Ave.)  Cross Friendship Boulevard and the entrance to the parking lot is the next right.  (I didn't make a note of it, but I'm pretty sure there's a light at the parking lot entrance.)

 

Midway between Willard and Western on Friendship Boulevard is a sign for the community center, pointing you up a staircase.  The sign is perpendicular to the staircase so it's not easy to see them at the same time, but I think our savvy raisers will figure it out.  And as David says, 

        

        there is no crosswalk at the most convenient parking point (along Friendship Blvd side of the parking lot, mid-way between Willard and Western), so please be careful crossing Friendship Blvd.  The parking garage exit is right there as well and some people just pull out of the garage without looking to see if anyone is crossing the street.
