For info, check their website: https://www.soar571.com/index.asp The launch hotline number is 678-429-0211. They want you to call after 9:30. It is a good idea to call because the field is under construction. Directions to the launch site can be found here: https://www.soar571.com/Directions/directions_garrard.asp

You can zoom out with the controls on the side. Drag the map to re-center it. Here are general directions (from the center of Newnan to the center of Lilly. You can put in your own address to make it more specific if you want, but I don't know the address of the sod farm. https://maps.google.com/maps?q=from:+newnan,+ga+to:+Lilly,+GA+31051&f=d&hl=en Apparently, you live only approximately 6 minutes closer than I do (assuming we both live in the centers of our cities). It should take 3 hours, 29 minutes from Newnan, or 3 hours, 35 minutes from Roswell. It looks like you are a lot closer, but maybe not. Roswell is about 15 miles further. https://maps.google.com/maps?q=from:+roswell,+ga+to:+Lilly,+GA+31051&spn=1.949981,3.559021&f=d&hl=en If it does take 3 hours, it's still worth coming!!! Even if you just fly LPR or MPR it's a blast.
