- ****MEETING TO BE HELD AT THE HOME OF DOUG PLATT AND GRACE KIRKWOOD****
-
- DIRECTIONS: Assuming you are heading West on the Pennsylvania Turnpike, take
- Exit 25 (Norristown). Continue straight past the Toll Booth to Plymouth Road
- where you will take a Left. (If you were not heading West on the PA Trnpk.,
- please ask the Toll Booth person how to get to Plymouth Rd. or the Plymouth
- Meeting Mall.) Having taken a Left at Plymouth Rd., proceed to the first
- traffic light and take a Right on Germantown Pike (you will be heading west).
- Begin to count the stop lights. As an indicator that you are going in the
- correct direction, you will soon pass the Plymouth Meeting Mall on your Right.
- A few more lights and you will pass Rt. 202. You are very close, now. Eleven
- lights after your initial turn onto Germantown Pike you will arrive at Swede
- Road. Turn Left. The first house on the Left is 2838 and has a pink sign in
- front that says "IT'S YOUR PARTY". You will have been on Germantown Pike for
- about three miles. Doug's number if you need help is (215)277-4264.
