The event will begin at 6:00 and go to 7:30 (or 8:00, if you want
to stick around that long). The coordinates above are for the
parking area in front of the restaurant. There is also parking
behind the building and on the side streets. The waypoint I've
added is for the back parking lot
Since we will be there during the dinner hour, I've managed to
find a menu for the restaurant. If you'd like to see it, you can
find it at http://www.pizzasams.com/files/PizzaSams_Dinner_DineIn.pdf.
As a fair warning, I've heard from many people that Midland is a
tough town to find your way around, especially the downtown area.
Here are directions from the 3 main ways you could be coming in to
town:
From the south/east (Saginaw, Bay City, Flint, etc): Take the
business 10 exit (after the Bay City Rd exit) off of 10. This will
come through town. There will be a curve to the right in the road
(near the Dow Diamond), where the road turns into Indian. After the
curve, there will be a bunch of one-way roads going across Indian.
You need to turn left on Ashman. The restaurant is on the corner of
Ashman and Main.
From the north (Sanford, Coleman, Clare, etc): Assuming you come
in on 10, you'll need to take the Eastman Road exit. At the end of
the exit is a stoplight. You will need to turn left onto Wackerly.
The next stoplight will be Eastman, where you need to turn right.
You will follow this down to the major curve left (just after the
library and Midland Center for the Arts). Here, it turns into
Buttles. Here, there will be a lot of one-way roads crossing
Buttles. Find Ashman, and turn right. The restaurant is on the
corner of Ashman and Main.
From the west (Mt. Pleasant): Assuming you take M-20, your
directions are very simple. M-20 comes directly into downtown
Midland. You will have an overpass that goes over the river. At the
bottom of the overpass, you will need to turn right onto Main
Street. The restaurant is on the corner of Main and Ashman.
