Location
We will gather at the Eggan Youth Center, across from Moscow Middle School. The Eggan facility is located at 1515 E D St in Moscow. Arrive by 8:45am. Plan to park along D Street, near Moscow Middle School (there is ample parking along the soccer field and in front of tennis courts). We'll gather on the grass next to the skate park, just to the east of the Eggan Youth Center building.
ROAD CONTRUCTION: There will be street closures on Mountain View and D St, the intersection where the tour begins. Access to/from Eggan is only from the WEST.
If coming from Highway 8, head north on Blaine St at the light — the intersection where Spence/ NRS/ Eastside Marketplace are located (turn right coming from Troy, or turn left coming from Pullman). Follow Blaine St, then turn right (east) on D St. Follow D St to Eggan Youth Center near the soccer fields across from Moscow Middle School.
