Okay folks, here's the full scoup on our next gathering, on 9/25/04. Please read this post completly, so we are all on the same page.
First off, just a few quick reminders:
- traffic laws are obviously in force, 25mph max in the park
- absolutly NO burnouts, aggressive driving, etc.
- park admission is $3, there may be someone collecting at the gate, or there may not. If not, the honor system is in effect. Grab an envelope at the box as you come in, toss $3 in it, and put it in the big mailbox looking thing. Before you drop it in the box, tear off your parking pass and put it on your rear view mirror. Everyone -must- have paid up, and have a pass.
- no beer, etc.
- please be curtious to other park patrons, park officials, etc.
- trash is on a pack in, pack out plan. I will be collecting trash at the end, just put it in a small grocery bag or something like that
Park information
North Point State Park
8000 North Point Road
Edgemere, MD 21219
http://www.homestead.com/northpointstatepark/
I will be at the park around 11:30ish am getting things set up, and the BBQ time is 1:00.
My cliff notes on directions to the park:
From Northern MD/ points from North:
695 South Exit 42 - North Point Blvd./Sparrows Point. Bear right onto 151 South -- North Point Blvd. First left (Edgemere/Ft. Howard) onto North Point Rd. (into edgemere) you will pass a wawa on the left, then sparrows point HS on the left, stay LEFT at the fork in the road, strait for about a 1/2 mile, park entrance is on left. (bay shore road)
From Southern MD/VA/DC area
(I-95N to I 695 East, key bridge)
I95 North to 695E to Exit 43 -- Sparrows Point. Left (at ramp) onto Rte 158 -Bethlehem Blvd towards Edgemere/Fort Howard. Proceed to traffic light at North Point Blvd. Straight through the light onto North Point Rd. (into edgemere) you will pass a wawa on the left, then sparrows point HS on the left, stay LEFT at the fork in the road, strait for about a 1/2 mile, park entrance is on left. (bay shore road)
Basically after you get off of I-695 (and onto north point road if you are coming from the North, it's the first left) you stay strait on the main road until you hit the park. It will be on the left. (If you end up at Fort Howard Park, that's the end of the road, you have gone too far! It's back about 2 miles.)
Also, please note that mapquest says North Point Road/RT 20. there is no signs for RT20, just North Point Road, which are the same. Just worth mentioning.
NOTE: The toll for the Key Bridge is $2 each way.
NOTE NOTE: The transit police around the key bridge is a somewhat over zealous bunch. -WATCH- your speed & driving habits about 5 miles before the bridge in and until you get off the exit. They hide around corners, behind trees, under overpasses, in bushes, under sewer covers
, well, you get the point.
