Description

From the Glades Rd. entrance, drive around to the back side of the campus on to Lee St. Continue until you come to a four way stop sign intersection of Palm Beach Ave. There will be a building to the south with two tall green "smokestacks" (really vent pipes) on it and you should see the dome on the east side of the building. Park in the white parking spaces of Lots 4 & 5 near that intersection.
