• Go exactly one mile on Brush Valley Road
• Turn right onto Smith Lane (narrow road hidden in the trees so watch closely), which is just after a green trailer on the right that has numerous lawn ornaments out front
• After crossing over a flat, wooden bridge on Smith Lane, go a half mile to the first big barn on the left.
The big red old-fashioned barn is more than 100 feet long so you can't miss it.

In fact as of noon today (Friday) you will be able to read the catalogue and sign up online, simply go to www.calvarysc.org/cityserve. It’s going to be a great weekend! Mark your calendars!
