HELD AT
The home of PremShakti & Michael Dean Goodman
4855 Belvedere Rd., Haverhill (West Palm Beach) FL 33415
Just west of the Palm Beach Airport, 2 blocks west of Military Tr., on the NE corner
of Belvedere Rd. & Park Ln.
DIRECTIONS
1. From I-95, exit at Belvedere Rd.
2. At the end of the exit ramp, turn left onto Belvedere Rd. westbound
3. Pass the airport on the left, round the big 'S' curve
4. Pass Military Trail (stoplight, 7-11, Walgreens, KFC)
5. At the 2nd street past Military Tr. (Park Ln.) turn right - 1 block before Haverhill
6. Our house is on the NE corner of Belvedere Rd. & Park Ln. ('4855' on the mailbox).
1. From the Florida Turnpike northbound, exit at Southern Blvd.
2. At the end of the exit ramp, turn left onto Southern Blvd. eastbound
3. Go about 2 miles and exit at Military Tr.
4. Turn left/north on Military Tr. and go 1 mile
5. Turn left/west onto Belvedere Rd. (stoplight, 7-11, Walgreens, KFC)
6. At the 2nd street past Military Tr. (Park Ln.) turn right - 1 block before Haverhill
7. Our house is on the NE corner of Belvedere Rd. & Park Ln. ('4855' on the mailbox).
1. From the Florida Turnpike southbound, exit at Okeechobee Blvd.
2. At the end of the exit ramp, turn left onto Okeechobee Blvd. eastbound

PARKING
1. The 1st 20 cars to arrive should park in our front & back yards (on the grass).
If you know you're not leaving early, please pull up & let someone park behind you.
Please do not park on our paved driveway - leave that free for people to unload
and to get on and off the grass.
2. After our yard is full, please park only on the east (right) side of Park Ln. - NOT
blocking anyone's driveway (look carefully). First, drop off heavy objects (drums,
food, etc.) in our driveway and then park down the street.
3. Once cars are parked a full block down Park Ln., we suggest that you park on the
next street to the east of us - Concord Ave. Park on the (left) west side of Con-
cord, on the grassy shoulder next to the street. You'll have a shorter walk than if
you'd parked far down our street (Park Ln.), and your car will be safer (closer to a
busy street, better lit).
4. Of course, when parking anywhere, be smart - don't leave valuables sitting in plain
view - hide them.
5. Please don't pull into any neighbors' driveways or yards to turn around, espe-
cially late at night when leaving. The activity, and bright lights, disturb and frighten
them, and they complain to the City. To exit our neighborhood, don't turn around
on Park Ln. - it's dark, narrow, and has deep drainage ditches along both side; just
continue north on Park Ln. Two blocks down there's a street going left (west) to
Haverhill Rd. (a main road).
Namaste,
Michael
