You'll come to a 2nd light at a crosswalk, next to the Quincy Ctr. T station. Go
straight through this light also. There will be a big church (The Church of Presidents) in front of you to the left. As the road starts to split (this is not obvious) you need to bear left around the church, but stay in the right-most of the left-bearing lanes (there are 2). There will be a light just as you start around the church. Go through that light and get into the 2nd lane from the right. You
will come to another light at Washington St. (Note: There are 4 lanes. The righthand lane is sometimes used for parking. The 2 left lanes are for a left turn. You'll be in the "straight" lane.)

Go straight through that light, and Quincy College (Coddington Hall) is
on the left, across from the library. (If you pass Quincy HS on the left or
the YMCA on the right, you've gone too far.)

The address is 34 Coddington St., 02169. The rotary-looking thing to the southeast goes around The Church of Presidents.

I would give AT LEAST an hour to get there from the Medway area. Friday
night it could take 90 minutes depending on traffic.

We will have a cell phone number provided at rehearsal for additional help should it be needed; for obvious reasons not published here.

The righthand lane is sometimes used for parking. The 2 left lanes are for a left turn. You'll be in the "straight" lane.) Go straight through that light, and Quincy College (Coddington Hall) is on the left, across from the library. (If you pass Quincy HS on the left or the YMCA on the right, you've gone too far.) The address is 34 Coddington St., 02169. The rotary-looking thing to the southeast goes around The Church of Presidents. I would give AT LEAST an hour to get there from the Medway area. Friday night it could take 90 minutes depending on traffic. We will have a cell phone number provided at rehearsal for additional help should it be needed; for obvious reasons not published here.
