2007 Basketball Season
Wednesday, November 7, 2007 thru Wednesday, February 27, 2008

Directions Heading North on I-85 from I-285:
From I-285, go north on I-85 PAST Gwinnett Place Mall (which is at Exit 104, Pleasant Hill Rd.) to GA 316 to Athens/Lawrenceville (Exit 106). Travel 5 miles on GA 316 to GA 120 and Exit toward Lawrenceville. Turn right onto GA 120 and go about one and one-half miles, following signs for GA 120 east (this highway/street has different names and is called Duluth Hwy, W. Pike St., Crogan St. and US 29, in that order). After you pass the Krystal (which will be located on your right), move to the left lane as the right hand lane becomes a right turn only lane in about a half mile (at Langley Dr.).

When you get into downtown Lawrenceville move to the center lane as you will want to go straight past the Post Office (which will be located on your left). Immediately past the Post Office you will also want to go through the traffic light at GA 20/GA 124. In about one-half mile you will reach the traffic light at GA 124 (Scenic Hwy). GA 124 accesses Crogan St./GA 120/US 29 from the right only. When you get to the traffic light at GA 124 (Scenic Hwy) turn left into Rhodes Jordan Park.

Follow the park road around the football/baseball fields (which will be on your right). At the first stop sign, turn left on Waterworks Rd. and follow it around the water reservoir (which will be on your left). Look for the sign to the Community Center (which will be up a hill on your right). From GA 316, it is about 3 miles to the Community Center.

Directions Heading North From I-285 and US 78 (Stone Mountain Freeway):
From I-285, take US 78 (Stone Mountain Freeway) east to Snellville. Turn left onto GA 124 (Scenic Hwy) to Lawrenceville and Rhodes Jordan Park. Stay on GA 124 and go past GA 20. In about one-half mile you will reach the traffic light at Pike St./Crogan St./US 29. You will need to be in the center lane before you approach the light so that you can continue on straight through the light. Hwy 124 appears to dead-end at Pike St./Crogan St./US 29 (actually GA 124 continues on north if you were to turn left). However, you will not turn, but go straight through the traffic light into Rhodes Jordan Park.

Follow the park road around the football/baseball fields (which will be on your right). At the first stop sign, turn left on Waterworks Rd. and follow it around the water reservoir (which will be on your left). Look for the sign to the Community Center (which will be up a hill on your right). From I-285, it is about 18 miles to the Community Center.
