ISTA@VISTA w/ GN/TTYPE gathering June 30th, Jordan Lake
It's that time of year again! The annual SyTy/ GN gathering and cookout will be June 30 at 10am. Same place at Vista Point access, Jordan Lake. Last shelter area on the left before the boat ramps. Bring your own burgers, hotdogs, and drinks. Park admission is $2 per car unless it has changed since last year. Greg, if you still have the mapquest directions, please post them. To get there take Hwy 64 east from Pittsboro. Park is about 5 mi from Pittsboro. Turn right at the stoplight at the Citgo gas station. There will be a sign pointing to the access area, follow this road, it dead ends at the boat ramps. So if you get to the boat ramp, turn around and look to your right for the shelter!!! Hope to have a good turnout his year.For mapquest, click:

when the window pops up, enter "seaforth" for the city & "NC" for the state, and that will give you a map of the jordan lake area.
Basically, If you are coming from Apex/Cary traveling west on Hwy64, you will pass the lake and continue on as if headed for Pittsboro. The first traffic light you should hit (Griffin's Crossroads) will be at N. Pea Ridge Rd. The Citgo gas station will be on your right. Turn left at this traffic light and follow N. Pea Ridge Rd all the way to Vista Point park entrance. (If you turn right, you would be on Mt. Gilead Church Rd) If you miss the turn & find yourself crossing the Haw river, you went too far.
Vista Point is "off the beaten path" so it's nice, quiet & generally uncrowded, but then it's a little bit trickier to find...
You F body guys can come too.
