onGoing to Urbanna Saturday night? Park at FBYC and take the chartered buses, departing FBYC at 1700 and 1800 hours, returning from Urbanna at 2200 and 2300 hours. Stay off the roads, enjoy the company, save the gas, and don't hassle with parking.
Tired of the West Point Parking Lot? The following route takes 15 minutes longer than going through West Point with NO traffic, but since that's not going to happen again 'til next October, try this:
These directions start at the intersection of Pole Green Road and Rte 360/Mechanicsville Turnpike. Pole Green Road is a shortcut for those leaving Richmond who can take I-95N then I-295E to the Pole Green exit, then Pole Green N. to Rte 360, thus avoiding most stoplights on 360.
From Pole Green Road at 360, go East on 360 24 miles to Millers Tavern. Youll see a sign To Rte 17 pointing to the right take this and you will follow Rte 684 for 10 miles to Center Cross. Turn right onto Rte. 17 South, take this to Saluda (turn left across from Food Lion), then stay on Rte 33 to Deltaville.
