We're going to be giving out prizes a little differently this year.

Each giftbag will have a few points to get you started. As you participate in activities this year, you'll get points and you'll also get points for winning games, etc.

We're going to have the prize table setup so each prize will have a point value. You can either turn in your points right away OR you can save them up to get a chance at a bigger prize.

Oooh! That sounds fun... kind of like being at the arcade!

Directions for the Golden Leaf Commons:

Okay, I wanted to post this to make it easier on everyone because Googlemaps might confuse some folks as to what they have things labeled as in the Government Complex Area.

If you do a close up on googlemaps the GLC is not labeled, but also they have the actually Greensville County Government building listed as Southside Va. Community college.

So I'm going to give you the best direction I can of a local.

Regardless of if you are coming from the north or south on 95. The closest exit is Exit 13, and it's probably the easiest. Unless you want to go to Emporia for breakfast or something like that.

If you are coming from the south, once you get on the exit ramp you will come to the stop sign. Turn right onto Otterdam Rd (614)

If you are coming from the north, once you get on the exit ramp you will
come to the stop sign. Turn left onto Otterdam Rd (614)

Next, you will come to the stopsign, there will be a shell station/gas stations to your right. The road that is running north/south is 301. It is a 4 lain road here. You will turn left onto 301 north.

It is not quite a half mile (it might not even be that far) The Greensville County Government Complex is going to be on your left. The sign out front is green with gold letters - The Government building is a large brick structure.

There are 2 entrances into the Government complex, you can take either. If you take the first, you will have to turn left in the parking lot, it goes right around to the GLC but the road that way may be a little rough, not sure if they've fixed that yet or not.

If you go past the Government building on 301 you can take the second entrance which is Uriah Branch Way.

Drive up Uriah Branch way, past the government building, there are two smaller buildings right behind the government complex building and then there is a larger building beyond those.

Turn left into the second parking lot entrance behind the government building and then you will go to your right into the GLC parking area.

Below is a image off googlemaps, I have the GLC circled in red.

If you are driving from east or west on 58 - then all you need to do is get off onto 301 North and follow the same directions once you are on 301.


If you have any questions about any of these directions, please either PM me or email me at [email protected]

[nessy_86]

Could you post the actual address for the location? Sorry if it's been posted before!

140 Uriah Branch Way
Emporia, VA 23847



Just so everyone knows, Googlemaps will get you to the place you turn off of 301. So you can use that address but it does not show you which building is the correct one - plus google maps identifies the Government building as Southside Virginia Community college. That's not a college, it's where the Treasurer and other government stuff is for Greensville county :p

But also to help everyone out I have some signs I use for the meet that have MLP, arrow and pony on it so there should not be any trouble getting to the location

[Anitas_Mom]

Thanks for the travel info Karen.

[InsigniaEclipse]

You're the best K!

[KarentheUnicorn]

Just a little update on the location:

The road is fine, I would say for everyone to take the first entrance into the Government Complex. Then when you come to the parking lot, turn left, driving through the parking lot, past the small district 19 building that will be on your right.

Drive straight on to the larger building in the back.

You will see signs that say the building is a college. There are no signs identifying the Golden Leaf Commons; the GLC entrance will be at the center of the building at the flag polls. You will come through a set of double doors and then walk straight through to the main room.
