The Great Meadow public observing session is a go. Because the field is too
wet to drive on, THE LOCATION FOR TONIGHT’S OBSERVING WILL BE IN THE GRAVEL
PARKING LOT NEXT TO THE STADIUM. When you enter at the main gate,
immediately turn right and go 1/10th of a mile and turn left into the
parking lot. I will have signs up on how to get there. The session is from
6 to 11 pm.
Hope you can come out and join us!
Directions
Via I-66 West from DC – The exit from I-66 is exit 31 (The Plains exit; 9
miles past Haymarket), left turn (head south) onto HW 245 (Old Tavern Road).
Go approximately 1.9 miles to the Pass Gate entrance on the left side. The
Pass Gate entrance is across the road from where Old Winchester Road
intersects Old Tavern Road. If you intersect HW 17 you have gone too far.
When you enter at the main gate, immediately turn right and go 1/10th of a
mile and turn left into the parking lot.
