About PAV

The Parking Association of The Virginias is a non-profit chartered corporation of the state of Virginia and licensed by the State Corporation Commission to practice business in the Commonwealth of Virginia.  It includes the state of West Virginia with association members from that state.  The association became a chartered corporation in 1988 when a small group of parking professionals in the north and eastern part of the state decided that facing the daily challenges of the parking industry could be easier with help from others. Our mission is to promote the parking profession in our region.

 

The organization is a professional association consisting of parking administrators, practitioners, suppliers, and consultants in the Commonwealth of Virginia, the states of West Virginia and Maryland.  The purpose of the association is to provide for the acquisition and sharing of knowledge: personal development: a mutual support network: and the creation of an environment for professional interaction.

  

The association provides a forum for the exchange of professional information, a vehicle for vendors, suppliers and consultants to contact potential regional customers, a framework for networking, a source of information on new products and technology and opportunities for social interaction with other industry professionals. 

 

The membership categories are corporate, including corporations or individuals engaged in supplying goods or services, and institutional who are individuals or organizations providing consultation services to the parking industry.

 

It is an association of parking industry professionals, has a continuing interest in supporting education and the educational opportunities of its membership, their employees, and dependents.  Accordingly, it has established a scholarship program in which each year an academic $500 scholarship is awarded to a college student. Our membership for the region of Virginia and West Virginia totals approximately 100.

 

Each year we sponsor a conference and trade show in the fall.  The two-day event features workshops, guest speakers, social events and display of parking related products.   The next workshop may be scheduled in your city.  We are constantly changing the location of our workshops to best suit the needs of the association and it’s members.  If you or your organization would like to join our association and receive the many benefits that result from the workshops, luncheons and good fellowship and networking as parking professionals, please do so.  You may contact any board member for information on how to join us or click here join PAV and you will be taken directly to our online application and registration page.
