| Bring whatever you like to eat. Otherwise there's plenty of McDonalds/Wendys/BackYardBurger/BurgerKing/TacoBell pizza places and restaurants in the vicinity of the park. Bring a gallon container of fresh water for your plants and those you exchange for. Starts I think at 10 or 10:30. I'll try to get there earlier to help Eliz. (hotroses) There's more info on directions on the 'discussions' forum thread. |

| On Mapquest..you can put in McAlpine Creek Greenway Park or McAlpine Greenway park and it will direct you to click on 'get a Charlotte NC map". From that map, find Matthews(south east of charlotte), move your cursor 1/4" to the left and 1/4" to the north and click. Then go to the zoom feature and give it a couple of enlargements. McAlpine is a long greenway park. What you're looking for is the main entrance which is off Monroe Road at the railroad overpass. If you're coming from the north via Independence Blvd/Rt 74 you can get the block over to Monroe Rd via International, Village Lake Drive or Sardis Road North (Crown Point). Coming via 485 (77 or 85 to 485 which is our partially finished outerbelt) choose the Matthews/Monroe Rd exit #52 and head towards Charlotte on Monroe Rd. If you get off on exit 51 (Hwy 74) be sure to use the exit that leads to Charlotte west or you'll just have to turn around. For mapping, try McAlpine Park Drive Charlotte NC 28211 |

| Would anyone like hosta seeds? I've got about a million of them(from one hosta and don't recall the variety). I'll bring them and all the leftover moonflower seeds too. |
