[Wayne (Axel) Remes]

Directions to the Salesberie Glen Fight practice are as follows:

The park is located at 315 South Boundary, Salisbury, NC

Take I-85 to Exit 76 toward Salisbury (Exit 76 puts you on E. Innes).
Take E Innes to Boundary Street (This will take you towards downtown 
    Salisbury)
Turn left on Boundary. 
   (This road is between the Office Depot/K-Mart Shopping Center and the
    Post Office, and is close to the Interstate.) 
The Park will be on your left on the corner of Boundary and Old Concord
Road. It's about a quarter mile from E. Innes Street. 

You can see the playground and pavilion from the road
