*** It's a POTA Picnic in the Park with purposefully placed foxes for your puzzling pleasure! ***
Meet on the grassy area behind the Pavillion. Since the Pavillion parking area is small and likely full, recommended parking is at P1 (free), further along the Rockcliffe Driveway (the road through the park). It's about a 5 minute walk back to the Pavillion area.
