Ok, Let's get the directions simplified for the flyers coming to this event from the south. Last time i asked anyone, no one likes to double back and add 15-20 minutes of driving to get to a fun fly.
Directions:
Hwy 11 north; exit at Lake Nosbossing Rd (exit # 329). At the end of the exit ramp turn right proceed under the highway. Drive 1/2 km to Hwy #94 and turn right onto this road. Drive for about 5 kms (watch for signs for Osprey Links Golf Course)and turn left at Cranberry Rd. This road splits (the paved portion is the access to the golf course, the gravel split to the right takes you to the flying field 1/2 km ahead. this is a dead end rd. Look for the gate to the club field. It's easy to see on your right).
This is my current home field. Hope you see you there.

Andre, the giant

Actualy, if there's a Google map or mapquest site reference with the field being the flagged locatiion (eg, latitude/longitude), then either will be able to generate directions.

Of course, having the lat/long means that you can plug that into your GPS if it has the capability.

Jerzy,

I'm glad the fun fly went well again. I hope to make up there one of these years. It would be a fun road trip.
