DIRECTIONS
THANKS ANNETTE FOR WRITING THIS ALL OUT!
John and Anne's: Take the Eagle Rd. exit (There's a St. Luke's right there) and go about four miles to McMillan. Turn rt. on McMillan and go a mile. Turn rt. on Cloverdale. Take a left on Goldenrod (I think the first street). Go 1 1/2 blocks to Albany. They live across the street from the clubhouse.
Black Canyon: Take Eagle Rd. north about 6 miles from the freeway. Turn rt. on State St.(just before the Albertson's) and go to the second light. Turn left here at Horshoebend Road (Highway 55). Go to Horseshoe Bend and follow the signs to Emmett from there. We think the lake is about 15 miles. Parking is probably $3.00.Note: If you're coming from Net's or Pete's, you'll probably want to go a different way. (Through Emmett)
Ann Morrison Park: You can enter the park from Capital Blvd. or Americana. Vista Ave. turns into Capital or you can take Front St. to 9th which turns into Capital. To get to Americana, you can take Overland to Latah and down the hill or the connector to River St. and up Americana. We have not chosen a location to sit yet. There will pro-bably be a shuttle from the mall or something, but we're waiting on the Statesman for that info. Illegal fireworks to follow at Peter's house.
Kay and Jeff's: You can take Apple to Wright to Constitution or you can take Federal Way to Bergesen to Constitution. You should recognize the house.
Barber Park: From Kay's house, turn rt. on Wright, left on Law, rt. on Boise Ave. and left on Amity. (Man, I'm good!!!)
Peter and Amy's: There are several ways, but I think this is the mostdirect. Take Eagle Rd. to Chinden (Target is on theright and a Staples on the left.) Turn left on Chinden and left on Long Lake. (the light just past Linder Rd.). Turn rt. on Wolf Rapids.
Morris Hill Cemetary: You can take Overland to Latah or the connectorto the River St. exit and turn rt. on Americana.Go up the hill and turn left on Latah. Enter the cemetary across from the mortuary and go left at the "Y" in the road. You'll find us.
Net and Karl's: Talamore Dr. is off Blackcat Rd. between McMillanand Ustick. We are just two blocks north of the L.D.S. church.

BOATING AND JET SKIIS
Peter has gotten a second boat for us and will also be bringing his two jet skiis. The estimated fuel cost is going to be about $280 for the day. It's really hard to put a price tag on this for everyone. So it's going to kind of be the honor system. We want everyone to have a good time and get to play, but we don't want to leave Peter hanging with the cost either. So please plan on making a contribution to fuel costs.

SITTERS FOR KIDS TOO SMALL TO FLOAT THE RIVER
Nici, Molly, and Amy would like to offer to watch all the small children and babies that will not be able to participate in the Boise River Float. They will pick a place to play, could be at Amy's house, or the park where you pull out of the river. Either way, they will make plans and arrange rides to meet up with parents. They will have some fun activities, snacks, and crafts for the kids to do, and might even be able to squeeze in a nap! Please RSVP if you plan on taking them up on the offer, so they can start making a plan! Thanks...email Amy at heathamyr@gmail.com--
