Re: Directions to Grove 1

Hey kids, just thought some of you might like to know where Grove 1 is located.
Roosevelt Park is a good size and you could wander for a while before you find it.
the easiest way to get to Grove 1 is to take Route 1 to Parsonage Road heading
North. essentially, keep the Mall on your left while on Parsonage from Route 1.
after you pass the mall you'll come to a stop light. make the left onto Oakwood
Avenue. you'll see a hospital on your left after you make the turn on Oakwood.
directly opposite the hospital entrance is the entrance to Grove 1 (which is on
the right side). you'll actually see the parking lot on the right before you reach
the entrance to it.
if you look at the Yahoo map (on the first page of this thread) you'll see a lake.
that's where Grove 1 is. it has ample parking to fit a number of cars,
BUT
Grove 1 is also the spot where the lake is. there is also a good sized jungle jim
for the kiddies, and there's some sort of asphalt soccer field there as well
(i dunno...i just calls them as i see's them)
it's like a rec area.
there are two parking lots there and another that almost circles the lake. the one
furthest from the lake is only a single-lane parking, but is nice and long. the
other is a good sized lot but that may be where we have the most competition
from non-meet people.
if you enter the park from anywhere else, just follow signs for the ice skating rink.
that's also where Grove 1 is.
FOOD:
there is a Wendy's, McDonald's, and White Castle within a 1/4 mile of the park.
there's also a diner and some restaurants in the same area. dummy me forgot
to check to see if there were grills at the Grove 1 spot, but for some reason i think
there are. if not, then they are a bit of a walk away.
gas statons are all around too for those who'd like to top-off before heading back
on the road for home.
hope it helps. see y'all in a few days!!
get there safely!!!

Very essential and important info for sure, considering that most of us have never been to Roosevelt Park before. I hope that a majority of us take note of these directions before the day of the meet, but I plan to update and insert them to the 1st post in the 1st page of the thread.

Video footage
To anyone who has a video camera/camcorder that's capable of transferring video to a compressed movie file onto a computer, would you guys mind bringing the video equipment to the meet and do some filming? Video documenting this large unique meet would be golden

EVERYONE, if you haven't done so already, please check the 1st post in the 1st page for any info you may have missed or wondered about. We have a bunch of items to be raffled off, tons of "for sale" items by other members, and important rules to follow.
