March 17th Meeting

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin at 8:10 am on Thursday, March 11, 2010

This month we’ll be meeting at Chapter 25 member Patrick Hoyt’s home to see the progress on his Zenith 601. Like last time, this will be an informal and relaxed atmosphere where people can feel free roam around the house and garage at will. Mary and Pat will cook up a batch of sloppy joes and provide the buns, plates, and utensils. Chapter members should bring sodas, chips, and dessert, etc.. to share.

Here is a Google Map showing Pat’s house.

Here are directions from 494:

  1. Get to I-35E Southbound
  2. Take Yankee Doodle Rd exit. Get in 2nd lane from the right.
  3. Turn right onto “Yankee Doodle Rd”. (heading westbound)
  4. Go straight through the first stoplight which is “Pilot Knob Rd”. Get into the left lane.
  5. Turn left at the stoplight onto “Federal Dr”
  6. Federal Dr becomes “Blackhawk Hills Rd.”
  7. Bear right on Blackhawk Hills Rd
  8. Turn left at “Blackhawk Lake Drive”
  9. We are the 4th house on right. The house is tan and will have a Blue VW Jetta in the driveway. Then numbers “1620″ are in black numerals above the garage door and are easily visible from the street.

Address is 1620 Blackhawk Lake Drive, Eagan, MN 55122
Phone:  651-688-7747

Look forward to seeing you there and thanks in advance to Pat and Mary for having us out!
