    I am planning on coming,but I need some decent directions and what time to be there.Looks like a 3 1/2 -4 hour ride to there from Loganton.I think I will be coming I-80 to Rte 42 then Rte 61 to Rte 422.The question is where do I go from there? any help?
    Thanks,Pat

    OK guys,
    I got off my dead a** and started on some directions to the Party. It looks like it's really going to be something. We talked my friend Ritch into bringing his Concours restored 72 Flame Orange GS 350, so you show people will have something to look at.

    Ken Smith
    8 Revere Rd.
    Berwyn, Pa. 19312
    (610)-651-2949


    From the intersection of Route 95 and Route 495 (The Blue Route)
    Merge onto I-476 N via exit number 7 toward PLYMOUTH MEETING. 13.18 miles
    Take the US-30 exit number 13- toward ST DAVIDS/ VILLANOVA. 0.35 miles
    Turn RIGHT onto GLENN AVE. 5.50 miles
    GLENN AVE becomes OLD LANCASTER RD. 0.25 miles
    Turn LEFT onto REVERE RD. 0.09 miles
    Total Distance: 19.12 miles

    From the PA turnpike.

    Heading west on the Turnpike, take exit 25A (Mid county) and go south on Route 495 to US-30 exit number 13.
    Take the US-30 exit number 13- toward ST DAVIDS/ VILLANOVA. 0.35 miles
    Turn RIGHT onto GLENN AVE. 5.50 miles
    GLENN AVE becomes OLD LANCASTER RD. 0.25 miles
    Turn LEFT onto REVERE RD. 0.09 miles



    Heading east on the Turnpike, take exit 24 (Valley Forge) and go east on the Schuylkill Expressway to Route 495. Then south to US-30 exit number 13.
    Take the US-30 exit number 13- toward ST DAVIDS/ VILLANOVA. 0.35 miles
    Turn RIGHT onto GLENN AVE. 5.50 miles
    GLENN AVE becomes OLD LANCASTER RD. 0.25 miles
    Turn LEFT onto REVERE RD. 0.09 miles


    Here is another set that Yardley sent to me. I need to verify them, but they look accurate and will save a few miles off my directions. I will check them with Ken.

    Take PA Turnpike to Valley Forge Exit (old exit 24)
    Go straight through toll booths and bear right onto Rt. 202 South
    Continue on Rt. 202 SOUTH - go 2.8 mi
    Take the PA-252 SOUTH exit towards PAOLI ( W. SWEDESFORD RD ) - go 0.4 mi
    Continue on W. SWEDESFORD RD - go 0.3 mi
    Turn L on CASSATT RD - go 1.4 mi
    Turn R on OLD STATE RD - go 0.2 mi (If you miss this, the next road is Conestoga anyway)
    Turn R on CONESTOGA RD - go 0.2 mi
    Turn R on OLD LANCASTER RD - go 0.2 mi
    Turn R on REVERE RD - go 0.1 mi
    Arrive at 8 REVERE RD, BERWYN

    If you have any questions call me (610)-544-6776 or 8252
    Duane

    PS. Pat,
    If you come down 422 you can head either north on Route 202 toward the Schuylkill Expressway and use my directions, or head south on Route 202 and use Yardley's directions.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but won't this be very close to Conestoga High School and Junior School if you need to get directions that might be the place to ask for.:Do No:

    Caravan from the south?

    I will be coming up to Berwyn from the south (Delaware). I will be caravanning with Tony Pistoria and his brother. Anyone else wanna join us from this direction, post here or PM me and we will set it up!
    This is gonna be awesome!:TU:

    Duane, would you prefer that we just bring money to contribute or is there something specific that is needed? Would be happy to bring either/both!

    Paul,
    Ken has just about everything purchased so if you want to bring a little money to contribute that would be fine. Also, according to Ken, Connestoga High School is almost in his back yard.

    Guys, the Berwyn Buick Bash is on for Saturday!

    I just talked with Ken and the weather forcast for saturday is 80 degrees and sunny, so we are keeping the original saturday date.
    Some of you have asked when the party starts, I figure it will run from 10 am to dusk. It should be a blast, see you all there.

    Hey Ken-

    You registered for the board! Cool! Now instead of just being addicted to reading, you can also throw your two cents in.

    Thanks again, man.
