Pow Wow 2011 Directions and Message from Jane


Dear All:
I am looking forward to seeing you at the Wellpinit Pow Wow this Saturday, Sept. 3rd. (Directions are below.)  If you are planning to attend, it would be great if you could RSVP to this email address or to my cell phone (509) 863 7370.  Texting is a super form of communication for this. Why RSVP? So I'll know to look for you and be a better hostess, of course! 

The group will be meeting up at the entrance to the Pow Wow grounds around 11:30 AM.  For those of you that feel more comfortable entering with a group, I will be leaving my house at 11:15 AM - you are more than welcome to meet up at my house first.

There is a variety of food available at the pow wow - from Indian Tacos to Pow Wow burgers to, well, I am sure there is something healthy there.

I will be heading back up to my house in the early afternoon, for those of you who wanted to visit/see my new place.

DIRECTIONS:
There are a number of different ways to reach Wellpinit from the Spokane area. I drove the first two, and marked the mileage myself, as the MapQuest directions are a little off.  The third set I based off MapQuest, so if those numbers are off, I apologize.

[I now live at 49801 Little Falls Rd,  and you will drive by my new home on your way to the Pow Wow.  I am leaving my house at 11:15 am. If you want to stop by, please do – but please go slowly down the ¼ mile driveway out of respect for my neighbor.  BTW: the directions to my house on MapQuest/GPS are incorrect and you will end up at the dam, below my house.  Just one of those things.  I will be setting out the INPCA sign at the end of the driveway – there is already a Windermere Realty sign there.]

From I-90:
Take exit 277, to RT 2 West.
Follow RT 2 for 18.8 miles to Reardan
Turn north onto State Road 231. (It is a right turn just before the US Bank.)
Follow 231 for 11.4 miles, turning LEFT onto Little Falls Road. (There is NO SIGN for ‘Wellpinit’ going this way.)

Turn RIGHT at the stop sign.
The Pow Wow Grounds will be on your right in about a mile. Turn right onto the Sherwood Loop (there may or may not be a road sign.)  Take a LEFT into the day-parking parking lot, and then walk across the road to the Pow Wow.

Turn right onto Dover. Follow Dover for 4.9 miles.
Turn right onto Long Lake Rd. Follow Long Lake Road for 8.7 miles -  there will be a stop sign at the end of it.  At this point, you are at the intersection of State Road 231, Long Lake Road, and Little Falls Road. Just go straight across this intersection, onto Little Falls Road.
