Directions: meet at Sand Pond WOODLANDS parking lot (not to be confused with Sand Pond beach parking lot about 1/4 mile up the road) 114 Great Western Rd. Harwich. From the intersection of Route 124 and Main Street in Harwich Center drive approximately 2.3 miles west towards Dennis. Watch for the semicircular parking lot with split rail fence on the right (can be easy to miss). If you come to a black mailbox with 100 on it, you have just passed it. Coming from Dennis take Great Western, go .3 miles past the intersection of Depot Street and you will see a black mailbox on the left with 100 on it. Look for the entrance of the parking lot just past it. There is a blue fire hydrant at the parking lot.
