Directions to
Knights of Columbus Hall

(1) The easiest way is to take the New Jersey Turnpike North or South to exit 8A for Jamesburg/Cranbury. The ride from the exit ramp at 8A to the show hall is about three miles, three turns and five minutes. Stay to the left after the toll and follow signs for Jamesburg/Monroe - Rt. 32 East. (Also named Forsgate Drive or Rt. 612.) Continue to the end of the road (fourth light) with a lake on your right. There is a four way stop sign between the third and fourth light. After the four way stop, drive over the railroad tracks at the fourth light and stay in the left lane. Turn left onto Rt. 522 West, also called East Railroad Ave. (If you find yourself on West Railroad Ave., you turned left before you went over the railroad tracks.) Turn right onto *Hooker Street, which is the sixth street on the right. Jamesburg Collision is on the corner. A short distance away there is a sharp left bend in the road. The name of the road is now Helmetta Road. You will travel about 2/10 of a mile and turn right onto East Lincoln Ave. (Lincoln Ave. will be on the left.) If you have not found the hall and you are seeing anything that says Helmetta, the next town over, you have gone too far. *If you miss the right turn onto Hooker Street, do not panic. Just stay on East Railroad Ave. for another two blocks and. just before the intersection of Rt. 615, you will come to a stop sign. Parkside Tavern will be in front of you. Turn right onto Lincoln Ave. Continue a few blocks to the stop sign at the intersection of Helmetta Rd. Cross this road to East Lincoln Ave.
