Dub & Grub One / the LI/NYC BBQ....

["Sean M. Brereton" <smb355@optonline.net>]

OK, the day is getting closer and we are in full swing! We have a number
of other clubs caravaning to the BBQ, and a ton of individuals. Here are
some basic directions, and a link to a head count page...we want to make
sure no one goes hungry! If you are coming, please stop in and let us
know, and with how many people. Also, although we are planning on having
food and drinks (no alcohol allowed in the park, sorry...), we couold
always use more. If you are coming with a large group, please feel free
to bring some cans of soda, bottled water, desserts etc. We will take
care of ice and meat to BBQ since we have people who live close by.This
event looks to be huge. I know many of you are on various other maling
lists, and I would appreciate if you could copy and past this to them in
order to get the word out. If there are any questions, please feel free
to e-mail me directly....

DIRECTIONS:

from points east...
 i would recomend taking the northern state to the GCP to the interboro
(jackie robinson).. exit 4.. forest park... get off go left then make
next avilable left ... basically follow signs to bandshell... pull into
parking lot on left after the bandshell... (beware of speed bumps) 

from points west...
 well anyone coming from brooklyn should know the interboro, just get off
at 4 go right then left.. follow signs to bandshell NOW for the rst of
you, it would probaly be easier to get off exit 19 (woodhaven blvd) on
the lie.. make a right and follow woodhaven for about 1.5 miles.. after
bridge look out for myrtle ave, just after myrtle make the right after
the next traffic light on to forest drive.. follow this about 1000 feet
and make right into parking lot before bandshell

from points North...
From the Tappan Zee take the Cross Westchester (I think
Rte 287...) east to the New England Thruway South (I-95) to the Throgs
Neck Bridge. At the end of the Throgs Neck, look for the Clearview
Expressway South. Do not confuse this with the Cross Island which also
exits at the end of the bridge. Take the Clearview south , you will pass
over the LIE / 495, and continue to the Grand Central/Interboroguh
Parkway interchange. You are looking to get on the Interborough Parkway
west, not the Grand Central. Take it to Exit 4. At the end of the ramp,
turn left, and take your first left in to Forest Park. Follow the signs
to the Band Shell, and turn left into the parking lot after the band
shell.
