A potluck picnic and yearly wrap up

Bobbie sends these directions. Apparently the picnic area we are using does not use the main entrance shown in Google maps.

Take your usual route to get to Rt.2

For most of us that would be either Som Center Rd. or I-271 to the Euclid spur coming from the west, or Rt 306 or Rt 44 from the east. From the west go east on Rt.2 and from the east go to the west on Rt.2.
Get off at Exit 213 Lost Nation Road and turn to the right (North)

Follow Lost Nation to Lake Shore Drive. where it ends.

Turn right onto Lake Shore.

Turn left on the third street ( Eaglewood ). You will see the Osborne Pool on your right.

Continue on down Eaglewood to almost the end. There will be a street sign saying

“Casteel Way” and signs on the Ground saying Osborne Park.

Take Casteel Way to the parking lot. You will see the pavilion to your right.

If you get lost call me at 440-954-2866.

This is a potluck. In the past we had way too many salads and deserts. Just sayin’.

See you then,

Bobbie

For those that like to see the map.
