MacSTAC Picnic UPDATE for Tomorrow nNght

Just received this from Wayne:

"Suggest that members arrive around 4-4:30 if they want to dip feet [in the lake] or enjoy the view from the deck."

Also, I will need help unloading my car and setting up.

One mile after you enter Pennsylvania, turn left at the NBT Bank and the Choconut Inn. At the next intersection (4-way), take the middle road to Quaker Lake. Continue along the north shore of the lake and look for the Yacht Club, a small blue-gray building on your left. The distance from the last stop sign to the yacht club is 2.2 miles. As you go around the lake, look for the building that has boats on a rack plus more across the street lakeside. The drive way is to the immediate left of the building. Park in the back behind the building.

ADDED: If you're coming from Binghamton, you can go south on Pennsylvania Ave [ast Weis Market, which becomes Hawleyton Road. Go west and turn sharply left onto Quaker Lake Rd. When you cross the PA border, it becomes Brackney Hill Rd. Go past the old Brackney Inn on your right until you reach the lake and a stop sign. Turn left and the Yacht Club will be on your left (look for the boats).
