Directions to 1 High Street, Huntsville - St Andrew's Presbyterian Church


NOTE:  Huntsville is having a Maple Syrup Festival that day, and therefore the main street will be blocked off.  You will have to access High Street either from Brunel or Centre Streets depending on the direction you are coming from.


Parking might also be an issue because of the Maple Syrup Festival.  The Huntsville & District agricultural society is working on a possible solution, and we will advise alternate parking options before the meeting.
