Best Western Maplewood Inn 651-770-2811 (West side of Maplewood Mall)
Best Western White Bear Inn 651-429-5393 (North side of White Bear Lake on
Hwy 61)

Directions:
>From White Bear Inn go SOUTH about 2 miles on Hwy 61 to the church at
County Road F.

Almost everyone else will be driving on I-694 exiting at Hwy 61 NORTH BOUND. 
Go NORTH about 2 miles on Hwy 61 to the church at County Road F.

>From Maplewood Mall, the surest method to get to Aurora is to go WEST on
I-694 or Beam Ave (south side of the Mall) to Hwy 61, then NORTH about 2
miles to the church at Cty Rd F. The tricky way to get there is to take
White Bear Ave NORTH two miles to County Road F (a stop light) and then go
WEST until you hit Hwy 61.

Landmarks:
About 1 mile north of I-694 on Hwy 61 is Tousley Ford (stop lights at Cty
Rd E).
About 1.5 miles north is a stop light at Cedar Ave.
About 2 miles north is the church and Polar Chev (stop lights at Cty Rd F).

If all else fails, just drive north on Hwy 61 until you see the HUGE polar
bear statue at Polar Chev and then take the (east side?) frontage road to
the church. 
If you get to the lake you went too far....
