Turf 20 is a stretch of Smithfield Road bracketed by Mail Plantation Road and Bissette Road (also called Lake Wendell Road). We can gather at the intersection of Mail Plantation and Smithfield. For your GPS, use 4461 Smithfield Road to get directions to the intersection.
As this is a small Turf with just 9 doors, this can be another learning opportunity on how to use MiniVan. Even before we meet, try using the following two resources to learn the ropes. Then come a bit early (10:30, 10:45) and I will walk you through it.
