To get to Mint Hill Park: Go East on Albemarle Road, past the Wal-Mart
at the corner of Harrisburg Road and Albemarle. The next stoplight is Wilgrove-Mint
Hill Road. Turn left and continue to the stop light at Highway 51. Go straight
across 51, about 25 yards to the stop sign at Fairview (see second map
for detail). Turn left and the park is about a mile on the right. Follow
the yellow/orange line on the maps below. Another good way is I-485
to the Rte 218, Mint Hill exit. The park is about 1 half mile West of the
exit.The best flying field is on your left as you go in the park, near
the small shelter. If the soccer fields are not occupied or not being watered,
they are also a pretty good place to fly. We'll try to send out e-mail
notices when someone will be there or check the schedule page to see if
we'll be there.
