From the West:
Take 22/30 or the Parkway West until you reach Steubenville Pike at Robinson Towne Center. (You should be in the area of Robinson's GetGo, Staples, Eat-n-Park, Petco, Kohl's). Follow Steubenville Pike approximately 4-5 miles through Robinson, under the I-79 overpass, and down hill to the Thornburg Bridge. At the end of the Thornburg Bridge is a light at a crossroads of five streets. (Sharp Edge Creekhouse sits to your first right off the bridge; DO NOT take this road.) You want the second right in front of AllState. This is Brodhead Road (and then Crafton Boulevard, better known as Backbone Road). These are all bumpy roads! Backbone will have three stop signs and pass behind Crafton Park (you'll see our small ball fields to your left). Watch the road's speed bumps by the apartment buildings and a stop sign. Go up the hill, over the crest, to the stop sign at Linwood. Straight to next stop at Emily St; Stay straight to next road, Hawthorne, and make right turn. Stay on Hawthorne to 3rd stop sign at bottom of hill; turn left to bottom of that hill (you'll be looking at the west busway) and turn right onto Chartiers Avenue. Follow Chartiers to end; at fork, keep right so houses are on your right, go up small grade to Promenade Street (school buses will be parked on your left); turn right up Promenade to stop sign. Turn left onto Fountain St (turns into Ewing Road). This is a bumpy, sometimes narrow, road so drive carefully. Also, watch for deer, turkey, and other wildlife.
