Directions:

 

Kilmarnock is on Route 3, about an hour north of Williamsburg, and an hour
and a half from Richmond.  From Richmond one generally goes southeast on 64
and gets off at West Point and meanders up 17 to Saluda, turning right at the Hardee's

and follows signs to White Stone and Kilmarnock.

From the north, one can go via 95 south of Fredericksburg, getting off at
17, going to Tappahannock  and crossing the Rappahannock to Warsaw and
continue south from there down Rt. 3 to Kilmarnock.  About 90 miles  from
Fredericksburg.

From the west, you can also go via 360 to Tappahannock and crossing the
river and continuing as above.  Slightly longer trip than going thru West
Point.

Grace Episcopal Church is on the south side of town, on Rt. 3, just after
leaving the business district.  It is a big brick church on the west side
of the north/south highway.  There is a parking lot next to it, and the
conference room is adjacent to the office, on the highway side.  We will
not be in the large parish hall near the parking lot.  Someone will be on
hand to direct traffic.
