----->> South Sound Summer Letterbox Fest <<-----
Sat, 9 Aug 2003
1000-until you want to leave
Tumwater Historical Park
777 Simmons Rd SW
Tumwater, WA (Olympia area)
(directions to the park are at the end of this message)
Meet other regional letterboxers, exchange signature stamps, get rid
of all of those 'unwanted' hitchhiker letterboxes, bring your house
hidden letterboxes that you just can't bare to part with, stamp into
Fudrick's awesome event stamp, exchange letterboxing/carving helpful
hints & ideas. Cap it all off with the exquisite potluck that will
likely ensue after all of the letterboxing festivities. Don't
forget to bring the munchkins as there is a GREAT playground
nearby! If you have a few folks who you've been dying to introduce
to letterboxing, bring them along, too! I'm sure we can get them
hooked...
POTLUCK--bring a dish & drinks to share that would feed the folks in
your party
Hope to see you there!

DIRECTIONS TO THE PARK FOLLOW:
--- In letterbox-usa@yahoogroups.com, "Fudrick"
> Since everyone will be at the Tumwater Historical Park on August
9th for the South Sound Summer Letterboxing Fest, thought some
directions might be useful.
>
> If you are NorthBound on I-5, you have the easy route. Take Exit
103, Deschutes Parkway. At the STOP sign, continue straight ahead.
Go past the entrance to Tumwater Falls Park, you can stop by there
later. You will pass the Boston Street Bridge (on the right) which
is closed for reconstruction. You will take the next right, which
takes you into Tumwater Historical Park.
>
> If you are SouthBound on I-5, it is a little more difficult, so we
will give you the scenic way. Take Exit 104, which is US 101,
heading out to the coast. Keep right, you will take the first exit,
Crosby Blvd/Cooper Point Rd/Capital AutoMall Drive. Turn right at
the light, turn right at the light (going on two sides of the
AM/PM). You are on Lakeridge. Take the second left (by Thurston
County Courthouse Building 4, the two story building with orange
panels under the windows). You will head down hill after going by
the entrance to the Thurston County CourthouZ. When you get to the
bottom of the hill, you are on Deschutes Parkway. Turn right, go
under the Freeway, don't turn left onto I-5 NB, but turn left at the
second road, which takes you into the Tumwater Historical Park.
>
> If all goes well, we will be loitering around the picnic tables by
the playground. You can tell us by our ink-stained fingers.

> See you there!!!!
