5K Run/Walk for Camelot for Children

-

These directions are intended to circumvent all the traffic and crowds for the walk, but if you'd prefer you can go straight through Coplay... From Rt.145 (MacArthur Rd.) Past Center St. and Columbia St., turn right on Chestnut St. Follow it until it ends at a "T" and turn left, onto W. Coplay Rd. Turn right onto N. Coplay Rd (which becomes N. 2nd St.). The parking lot (circled in yellow on the map) is on the left, just after you cross over the old railroad tracks, which is part of the trail for the walk. We're to play on er, the tracks (the blue line), near something called the Kilns.


5K Run/Walk for the Race for Adam Foundation

At the intersection of 24th St. and Fish Hatchery Rd., turn east, by the barn. Behind the barn is a parking lot, right next to the bridge.


Allentown Halloween Parade

It has been (rather snidely) pointed out that most band members probably know where the Allentown Fairgrounds are, and probably shouldn't drive if they don't. Please make sure of the route, however, as the St. Patrick's Day parade follows a different route, and does not require vehicles at the end for return trips. The Halloween parade begins at the Allentown Fairground and ends at the monument at 7th and Hamilton St. Parking for return vehicles at the end is in the Wachovia Bank parking lot, 7th and Hamilton.

TO REACH THE END: From MacArthur Rd. turn right on Center St., then left onto Ruch St. Turn right onto Coplay St., than right again onto S. 12th St. Almost immediately you will have to turn left on Center St. (don't worry, you're getting there), and finally turn right on 5th St. We usually park around 5th & Schreiber Ave., which is across from the "Coplay Saengerbund". The parade people give out pretzles and sodas there, and your car will be nice and close.

Harrison St. The 6th left turn will be 1st St. Turn left, then left again onto Elm St. Williams St. is the next intersection, and the tennis courts will be visible on the right side.
