The initial address listed the zip code as “06604” so if
you “cut & pasted” for directions it probably did not work. The correct zip code is 06804.


Directions:

Eastbound I-84:

Follow I-84 east to Exit 7 (Route 7 north) stay on Rt. 7 to the end.
Left at the light onto Rt. 202, take the second left (about 1 mile down the road) onto Junction Rd.
Take an immediate right into the parking lot of the church. Stay to the left in the parking lot…you won’t miss the PGR banners that will be up…or the bikes!

Westbound I-84:

Follow I-84 west to Exit 7 (Route 7 north) stay on Rt. 7 to the end.
Left at the light onto Rt. 202, take the second left (about 1 mile down the road) onto Junction Rd.
Take an immediate right into the parking lot of the church. Stay to the left in the parking lot…you won’t miss the PGR banners that will be up…or the bikes!


Mission Information:

* 1010hrs mission brief, a reading and moment of silence for PO1 Jason Dale Lewis, 30, Brookfield, CT.
* 1020hrs KSU (we are not going anywhere except across the parking lot but consider that KSU)
* 1030hrs form the flag line
* 1130hrs depart for cemetery


Notes(these are from the CT PGR State Captain)

* I just came back from the church and cemetery, the church parking lot is huge and we will stage there
* The cemetery is a straight shot up Rt. 7 to Rt. 202 but very commercial and many intersections.
* Rt. 133 to Rt. 67 to Rt. 202 is the route I will suggest to LEO, it is a VERY nice ride
* I will work with NMPD and Brookfield PD tomorrow to coordinate our route as well as notify Roxbury PD as we will be going right through that sleepy but beautiful little town.
* The cemetery is about 15-20 miles up the road…took me 25 minutes to make the trip at 6pm so traffic should be lighter for us in the morning and that’s why we involve LEO…safety and expedience!
* Please bring your flags!!
* Weather: sunny in the morning with isolated thunderstorms developing later in the day. High 81F. Winds SW at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 30%.

-A few people have emailed me about “The family only has one request and that is "no contact". They are overcome with grief and simply cannot handle it now…we will respect that.
