For Arrival to Chatham
If
you are traveling to Chatham from the north:
Take the second Chatham exit off of Route 29 (this
will be road 685). Turn right off the ramp and follow
the road to Main Street. Cross Main Street to Military
Drive, which is straight ahead. Remain on Military
Drive until you arrive at the heart of the Academy,
located at the Camden Administration building. This
is a large building with four two-story columns on
a porch. Parking is reserved for you in the front.
If
you are traveling to Chatham from the south:
Take the first Chatham exit on Rt. 29 (approximately
1 mile past the intersection at Tightsqueeze Plaza).
This ramp merges into South Main Street. Once you
travel past the downtown area, look for Watson Memorial
Methodist Church on your left. Once past this church,
take your first left onto Hargrave Blvd. (It will
be a hard left since it is located on the inside of
a curve.) Follow Hargrave Boulevard to Hargrave’s
driveway. Then, follow the driveway to the Camden
Administration building. This is a large building
with four two-story columns on a porch. Parking is
reserved for you in the front.
If
you are traveling to Chatham from the east or west:
Travelers from the east or west will arrive on Route
57. This is either Callands Road, which goes between
Chatham and Martinsville, or Halifax Road, which goes
between Chatham and Halifax. Travelers from either
direction will come out onto South Main Street Turn
north. (That is a left turn from the west or a right
turn from the east.) Once past this church, take your
first left onto Hargrave Blvd. (It will be a hard
left since it is located on the inside of a curve.)
Follow Hargrave Boulevard to Hargrave’s driveway.
Then, follow the driveway to the Camden Administration
building. This is a large building with four two-story
columns on a porch. Parking is reserved for you in
the front. |
